Nigel Benn starred as our first big name DJ & numbers soared to 1800 people. He was booked to pull people in and he did. Although the music was not ideal so we had to take him off early. The crowd was what we wanted and this night launched Good Times on its path to success.

Lovestation brought the house down with an electrifying performance! The crowd loved ‘Teardrops’ who doesn’t?
When Lovestation invited the crowd to join in it felt like 5000 voices… an incredible atmosphere, then raised up a notch with the powerful vocals & hi tempo of ‘love come rescue me’








The first ‘Club Classics’ night I put on & played at. House music was barely a decade old at this point (1997/1998) and rapidly diversifying , for me it’s important to stay in touch with my musical roots & early influences, there’s just so many awesome tunes out there forgotten or rarely played.
Club Classics is born…
Good Times gets in big trouble with tobacco giant Marlboro Lights for this cheeky number… All flyers and posters had to be taken out of every shop & destroyed. A bit of corporate grovelling saw us back in business but it was a close call. This was pre digital age so this image should be fine now right?
Another cheeky ‘rip off’ flyer!
This idea was first created for a ‘one for you’ new years eve party in 1995 at the Q Club in Cambridge. see below








Good Times made this shockingly tacky flyer to enter into a DJ MAGAZINE competition.
It was lots of fun and we won!
A great relief after the Malboro Lights incident…
