I don't have time to listen much, myself.

He's not getting any more attention (at least on the air) post band than he did pre-band. He picked up the guitar a few years back and I believe that he can only play Chili Pepper songs. He's admittedly not a great guitarist (or maybe even a good one, I've never seem him play) but the band gets attention because he's on the ticket.
As far as his place, he's just a drop guy but he's very good at what he does. He's also, IMO, hilarious in his role as the beaten down troll like figure who can't get women.
