Hello Amigos!

It has been a while since I last blogged on this site so I thought it was high time for me to do something about it.
Since my last post a lot has been going on, I played over 250 gigs in 2011, released a 6 track EP onto iTunes (hard copies available at all gigs), been on BBC and local radio stations, played at various festivals and weddings and launched my website www.lucasraye.com

What a mental game this is!

A favourite moment during 'Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home' is when a simple question stumps Spock during a complicated test.

“How do you feel?” befuddles his Vulcan mind, yet begins to draw out his human emotions. A classic Trek moment.

Innocent questions are no problem for Sean McGowan who at first resorts to humour when asked: “Are you angry?”

“I'm angry QPR lost to Fulham, I'm angry I never got to see the Clash, I am furious that I can't afford a better car than 'Fiona' my P reg banger.”

A response to the BBC 6 Music John Peel lecture

Blog Type: 
Review

The listener's approach to John Peel's radio show was probably similar to the mind set of someone considering purchasing an album by 'The Who'.

On one hand you can appreciate each artist’s professional brilliance and on the other you’re anticipating some tracks will be hard on the ear.

With this in mind it makes sense to have a living legend like Who guitarist Pete Townshend give the inaugural BBC 6 Music John Peel lecture. Nowadays most launches need a big name to force the story under the media spotlight and Mr Townshend has all the credentials.

Robin Foster's second album asks the question

From economist to housewife, through shop floor worker and student, the world's plight is putting this question on everyone's lips: “Where do we go from here?”

Its also the title of the second album from Robin Foster, a British musician living in France.

You might not recognise his name but his music could have underscored your television pleasure as tracks from his debut "Life Is Elsewhere" have been used by Hugo Boss, Barclay's and the US show 'One Tree Hill'.

Robin's latest mix of cool/dark instrumentals and songs features the south's Dave Pen the singer from Birdpen and Archive.

Having once been in a band that had a combined age of over 200 years I can definitely say it helped, but not for long.

Experience counts but it is far better to have youth on your side.

With Southampton's latest alternative rock band 'Fighting Tyler' they are lucky to have youth and also years of gigging and theatre experience on their side, rather than life's cruel twists and turns.

Guava Bar

When a venue changes its name some people find it very hard to use the new moniker. For example tonight there is an Oxjam event in Guava.

“Where?” you might ask. Well, it used to be Hamptons and is now something fruitier. I don't know how long it took to pick that name but I do know that when it comes to a band's some spend ages trying to think of something special.

So which of these band names grab you enough to see them in Guava tonight without listening to them first?

Cult comedy show 'The Inbetweeners' gave a very humorous, yet magnified sense of what life is currently like when you're young and have undirected energy to burn on new experiences.

If the four lead characters had some mates in a band, it would have to be Southampton's 'SomaHigh'. Like that very successful programme they are 'of the now'.

SomaHigh weave great riffs around lyrics that pick the meat from people's lives.

For example in 'Flashback Tuesday' you'll hear: “Screaming after your ex while he's having a fight with the wall.”
