Never heard that they broke up, but haven't done anything in quite a while.

I don't think they're done.
JP is doing a bunch of krud, and I'm pretty sure that Gabe the drummer is still playing in this band Rat Eyes.
It's probably just one of those things where they tour when they feel like it.

There was a period of time, from say 2002-2004, where literally every town a touring band would play had some douchebags in Locust cover/tribute band. Their live shows from this time consisted primarily of people who were in these bands, people who wish they were, and their girlfriends. You didn't miss much.

It is entirely possible that before that their lives shows were great. I have no idea what their shows were like before they had the masks. Did they play shows outside of California before that happened?
