News: 30.01.2010 - Lagwagon: Joey Cape spricht über die Zukunft In einem Interview mit Exclaim hat sich Lagwagon-Frontmann Joey Cape zur Zukunft seiner Band geäußert. Demnach hat Bassist Jesse Buglione die Band mehr oder weniger verlassen:
"I can be honest and say that I'm pretty sure we don't have a bass player. I think our bass player, Jesse [Buglione]… he would probably sit in a room with me and say, "Don't say that," but he's basically quit our band. He's made it pretty clear that he can't keep touring because he has to have a real job and make a living. He has a child and a mortgage; that's real stuff, I get it. I totally get that, I don't think anything bad about that at all, but that makes it hard for me to be motivated about doing things with the band because there's only a few original members in the band.
It's a weird thing when I think about that band. It's hard to give any kind of good answer. It's always just kind of a little bit of sadness. But I'm always up for doing something with that band. I would really be into doing the one-song thing with that band. because making a record is such a drag with a band. It just takes so much time. I think something like what I'm going to do is a great idea for Lagwagon. It would be super easy for us to get together once a month and write and record a song, or do two or three every few months."

12.07.2007 - Joey Cape: Akustikalbum Ein Akustikalbum für Bad Taste nimmt derzeit Lagwagon-Frontmann Joey Cape auf:
"Recently I decided to make a new acoustic album for the Swedish label Bad Taste Records. I have thought about this a lot and I realized I'm still attracted to the idea of a record with packaging, something people can hold in their hands. The days of these sort of releases are clearly nearing an end, so I just want to have one full-length acoustic release on my list of achievements. Because of this, I will not be posting everything I record for download. Out of respect for Bad Taste Records I will have to hold on to the recordings, although I can still post other stuff for download, hopefully of some interest to those who visit the site, www.myspace.com/joeycape. The album is tentatively set for release in April 2008. I am planning to support the release with a series of acoustic tours beginning in Europe in April. I have to admit, I am terrified, but it is something I have always wanted to do."

06.09.2006 - Blog zu Bad Astronauts neuem Album Joey Cape, Frontman von Lagwagon und den Bad Astronauts hat angefangen einen Blog zu schreiben über die Arbeiten am neuen Bad Astronaut Album "One Twelve Small Steps, One Giant Disappointment".
In dem Blog versucht er eine Menge Fragen zu beantworten und geht auch ein wenig auf den Selbstmord von Drummer Derrick Plourde ein, der sich letztes Jahr das Leben nahm.
"A lot of the song writing seemed relatively unworthy when compared to our earlier records. Still, I knew this record had potential and when I recovered from the shock that followed Derricks suicide, I knew what I had to do. I had to finish the record for him. I had to pick up the pieces, sort through them and make our last collaboration worthy of his greatness."

31.03.2005 - Derrick Plourde ist tot Derrick Plourde, der bei Bands wie den Ataris, Lagwagon, Bad Astronaut, Rich Kids on LSD und den Mad Caddies spielte, hat sich gestern erschossen. Kris Roe von den Ataris hat einen Nachruf veröffentlicht:
"Just found that our friend Derrick Plourde shot and killed himself today. He was our original drummer and was the current drummer of the band Bad Astronaut, along with our cello player Angus Cooke and our friends Joey Cape and Marko Desantis. I first met Derrick in 1997 after having had our demo passed along to several drummers, Derrick called me up. I immediately knew that the guy was a complete character, He definitely had a sense of humor like no one else I had ever met before, I mean seriously the guy could get away with the craziest shit, I remember the first time we played the non-for profit D.I.Y. very P.C. "Gilman ST." in Berkeley and the first thing he said to the kid putting on the show when we showed up in the club was "Who fired the maid?!" If any of you ever went to this club you will know what I'm talking about just look in any early Crimpshrine/Green Day/Fifteen/Op Ivy... L.P. and most of those photos of that completely grafitti covered shit hole was none other than the infamous "924 Gilman ST." Derrick would litterally walk up to any random person and be like "Hey are you gonna eat that?" and then fully smack the entire plate of food from their unsuspecting hands, where I came from if you tried any of this shit it would mean a serious ass kicking but somehow this charasmatic, young, individual managed to get away with it all, I could never do him justice, I would reccomend for any of you to go pick up the first Bad Astronaut E.P. entitled "Acrophobe" at the very end of the c.d. there's around 20 minutes worth of answering machine messages that he repeatedly left on his friend Jeff's machine just over the period of a couple days, over and over again... I mean serioulsly this guy was warped, you probably won't understand alot of the inside jokes but it is funny none the less. (Note: it is only on earlier pressings of the C.D. as it was later removed... to us it was just typical Derrick in his usual form.) In late 1997 after recording our first L.P. Derrick came to Indiana for a few months to live and rehearse with Jasin and I where we all slept on the floor of a 12 x 12 apartment with no heat next to the drum set. Those were great times. Derrick, I am sure that Jasin would also want me to extend his best regards as well on his behalf so I shall do that. Three months later I moved to Santa Barbara with Derrick, it was through Derrick that I was introduced to Mark Desantis who would soon thereafter become our first bassist and one of my closest friends. One of my fondest memories of Derrick, Marko and I together would have to be a night on our first tour ever. We were in Modesto, CA and Derrick dissapeared, got drunk, completely naked and was later seen walking around the halls of the hotel with a towel wrapped around his head talking in strange foreign tongues... Still makes me smile. Derrick taught me many colorful new words of a foreign language called "Goletian" not known to anyone outside the circle of Goleta, :) I would like to extend my love and respect to all of Derrick's many friends and family, Joanne, Joey, Jessica, Snodgrass, Derrick's Brother and Father, pretty much everyone in every band in Santa Barbara, just anyone who loved and cared about this guy as much as I did. This is one of those things in the back of your mind you kinda somewhat think could happen anytime then suddenly on the day you get that call it just doesn't really seem real. We defintely take some things... some friendships for granted while we are alive, and then suddenly they're gone. Derrick, I can assure you that tonight in Santa Barbara, Goleta and the rest of the world there are many glasses raised in your honor, Be well and we all love you always. Make sure that when you see Keith Moon and John Bonham up there that you give them plenty of shit and make them laugh like no one else could do... Party."
Unser Mitgefühl gilt Derricks Familie und seinen Freunden.
