Note to self, congratulations.

Like Dr Livingstone tracking the source of the Nile, or Neil Armstrong on the surface of the moon, or indeed imagine the boys sailing with the wind in their backs, landing on the Arabian Coast before trekking the Silk Route to see the Great Khan at the seat of his Empire in Karakorum. All this in the search of adventure, knowledge, riches. In one way or another it has been man’s destiny manifest to reach the furthest extremes of our knowledge, to play with the known facts and to unsettle the status quo. Of course such connection with these great men of history is merely facetious, a poetic ploy to put you in the mind-set of explorers unearthing long-lost gems. I want to get you back in the jungle, revealing the sticky folds and prodding the nerve-endings to release the gloopy insects and syrupy animals within.

Cheers Stephen.

WE HAVE MADE A SHOP - lostinidea.bigcartel.com
You can pick up one of the last 30 copies of the YOUTH 7" from there by the way.

We're no longer putting on our Xmas show, Radio One were hinting at legal action over the use of the now highly copyrighted name SANTA YOUTH. That's all we can say right now.

We have however found a replacement show in Brighton the week before on the 12th December, which should be a 'good time'. It's with Ty Segall and Fair Ohs at a place called JAM, i think it used to be the water margin... anywhoo, we should be playing a bunch of new songs from the album we've just started recording, plus all the amazing Christmas songs we've learnt.
