Aw, shucks.

Jim, the most esteemed commander of Strike Base Alpha (known to most civilians as the neighborhood bar, Cheers 2 U), said some pretty nice stuff about us recently.


Witness the warm fuzzies:


Johnny Raygun is a high intensity, high energy band with a unique blend of their own unique styling and a hint of 90's memories. No matter what the crowd brings, or how many are in attendance, the feel is they are giving a performance for a sold out stadium. Their obvious dedication to their trade shows in the tight-knit sound that comes from the three-piece group. These friends of the audience are transformed into highly concentrated musicians. The band is always prompt to performances and usually set up hours in advance so as not to spend countless minutes performing sound checks and other technical whatnot's when everyone else is ready to rock out. If you are as completely done with the crap they play on the radio these days as I am, then you are sure to enjoy these guys. They bring the crowd, the talent, and they ROCK THE HOUSE!!!!!
-Jim Keener (Owner: Cheers 2 U)
Citizens, I'm not sure if you're counters, as I am, but that was FIVE (5) exclamation points.The esteemed commander is not effing around.


We'll be playing the man's birthday party on January 27th, 2012, at Strike Base Alpha.

Reunited and it feels so good!

Today: the first time we all picked up our instruments together since JULY.
Not much else to report, just that it went really, surprisingly well.
I love that about our band.

Preview!!!!!

After hours of tweaking the final mixes for our first album the night before Thanksgiving, we're finally done! The album will be called We Should've Done This Years Ago and is going to come out sometime in January. Here's a preview for all you patient and loving followers, a song called Push --> Shove. Enjoy!


Push Arrow Shove by Johnny Raygun

Oh, and if you didn't know, we got our name back! Go buy some Johnny Raygun comics and give that awesome guy some money!

For now, we're working on photos, art, and printing to get this new album into your hot little hands, and of course, there will be shows, shows, shows at around the first of the year. Hang in there, citizens! We're on our way back to you!

Stay tuned!

Citizens!
Exciting news! Keep on the lookout for a sneak preview of our new album!
Could be this weekend...could be TONIGHT!
You never really know.
Stay on your toes, you sweet Raygun lackeys!

You guys. Busy.

And when I say, "busy," I mean, "with things besides The Raygun."
And we're very sorry about that.
But we've picked up recording again, hardcore, as of two weeks ago, and what do we have to show for it? Vocals almost done! That's right! We should be wrapping this thing up in about two weeks. I'm not putting you on, I mean it. Two weeks for the main bits of recording, and then we'll just have to go back over the thing with a fine-toothed comb. How long that'll set us back, I can't say—but we are getting close, I promise.
It's really coming together, and we're all pretty proud of what we've got so far.

The next big hurtle? Album title. Not a clue there. But it's getting right down to it, citizens. We'll have to decide sometime soon, and you know us; when have we ever disappointed you? I mean, aside from blowing right past our August deadline for the album. Oh, and besides that one time where we didn't play a show for like a year. Those don't count.

Anyway, it was good catching up with you. Say hi to your mother for me.

Zach out.

all work and no play

Is Pippy really done? only "Times vs Tables" will tell.
