this just in from phil tiki :

Just thought I'd give everyone a heads-up about what's happening with your favorite Link Wray Tribute band, Wraygun.

Well, over the past few months, we have gotten away from doing only Link Wray and are branching out by playing other kick-ass surf and instro, so we decided to change our name. From now on we will be know as 13 Tikis. We have the same line-up as before and will be playing all kinds of surf & instrumental music from all time periods. Don't worry, Wraygun still exists and will be taken off the shelf for special occasions (I hear that an opening slot might be available for the upcoming Los Santos show...) and we 13 Tikis still play plenty of the man's ground -breaking material. The name change allows us to be the best damn instro band in Chicago, regardless of who's covers we play.

So, with that being said you can check out the following web sites:

And follow us on Twitter @ http://twitter.com/13tikis.

Now for the show dates!

Our last shows as Wraygun will be July 31st & Aug 1st @ Chef Shagri La in North Riverside as we open for Grand Rapid's own The Concussions!
Saturday we start at 7PM and Sunday will be an afternoon show. Make your reservations now as tables are going fast.
