Right were do i start on this one then . . . .
It is with deep regret i have to inform you all of the expected outcome of goins on with our legendary home & birthplace and also one of hudds longest and most famous venues ( Rhythms in indigo / Beyond beach babylon )
It is looking more than likley that the club will close with immediate effect after our next event on saturday january 15th . . . . . . a lot of things have been goin on beind the scenes so to speak that have led to this appening , with various court battles with local residents etc due to complaints / petitions because of the noise from the club while its open ( as while the club was closed for 2 years they decided to build flats on both side streets thinkin the club would never reopen obviously ), now the club as been reopen for over a year and a half the neighbours have been doin there best to get the club closed since then , combined with various big money makin companys trying to get the guy who owns the whole buildning to sell so it can be made into more flats / bussiness propertys , ( the local council also want to see this happen as suddenly they have decided that that area is now a residential area !!! ffs its in the town centre !!! lol )
so come monday jan the 17th when the club owners are in court to renew there licenses so they can continue running as a night club , the council are set to refuse them and deny any renewals on there licenses which means the nighhbours / council and companys are all winners in this matter , just the clubbers of huddersfield are not and are set to lose what is one of the finest and best lookin venues about , there is nothing that can / could be done to stop this , as it would be a battle lost before it even started
im gutted (as many of u will be too i bet ) to say the least as im sure many of you that know me personally will know this as this was the birthplace of goodtimes way back in 1999 and as seen many of the best Goodtimes weve ever had during our time as an old skool event the last boxin day being one of them . . .
BUT i will say this . . . . . . .
this is NOT the end of Goodtimes , not by a long shot i aint brougt GT this far to stop it here . . . . we will be relocating to a new venue ( some disscussions are starting this week to find a alternate home weather it being temperary or perm for gt ) Goodtimes is now in to its 6th year which is something not many old skool nights in todays scene are able to or have ever acheived , there is many that have followed is from day one , and many on here that have followed / attended our events since the good old afterdark days . . so id like to thank you all for your support you have shown me and goodtimes . . . you need not get too down as unlike many nights that just fade away etc . . . . . . WE WILL NOT !!!!
Goodtimes will be back , and be back with avengance and continue are mission to become the most well known and everyone favourite old skool event in the north of england
