About the artist behind Billionaire Tab:
The band went on hiatus around 2000 and reunited in 2002 with a come back album Blaze, which was released in the following year. The group insists that they never broke up, merely taking a brief hiatus with plans to record again. In 2004, Joey released a split acoustic album together with No Use for a Name vocalist Tony Sly, which features acoustic versions of songs by both bands. Their latest album, entitled Resolve, was released on the 1st of November 2005 and is a homage to the life of Derrick Plourde, original drummer for Lagwagon and Bad Astronaut.
Despite earlier reports that Lagwagon would begin work on their next studio album, the band has announced plans to tour Europe in the summer of 2008. Frontman Joey Cape has also been busy working on his first solo album.[5] According to posts on the message board of Lagwagon's official website, it is unlikely that they will make a new album this year, partly due to Cape's solo commitments.

On June 5th, 2008, it was reported in a blog on Fat Wreck Chords' myspace page that Lagwagon were in the studio putting finishing touches on their latest EP release entitled I Think My Older Brother Used To Listen To Lagwagon. The announced date of release is August 19th.
