4. I saw him perform live twice

Once at the Fairfax Farmers Market (He was a local), and another time with his re-formed band at Amoeba records Hollywood.

May he rest in peace with all the other rock heroes and legends.

8. I interviewed him and Michael Davis about 20 years ago

They were reuniting with different singers, Evan Dando, Marshall Crenshaw, Mark Arm and David Yow IIRC.
The show was okay- Dando was pretty messed up, but they played all the classics. Wayne and Michael talked about playing during the riots at the 68 Convention and planning to go protest the Iraq War at the 2004 convention.
