Show Notes
DJ Fat Tony is one of the most recognisable figures in British nightlife, spending decades at the centre of club culture, fashion and celebrity. His time DJing at Trade, the legendary gay hard dance club, was just one chapter in a much bigger story.
Tony joins us for a revealing conversation at our BOYS! BOYS! BOYS! Gallery Café in London to share his stories from DJing at the wedding of Brooklyn Beckham, reflecting on the ups and downs of his long friendship with Boy George, and looking back at his early days brushing shoulders with the New York art world with Keith Haring & Andy Warhol, including a memorable detail about what Warhol actually smelled like.
The conversation moves between funny, shocking and unexpectedly tender. Tony speaks openly about addiction, recovery and rebuilding his life. Now more than twenty years sober and happily married, he looks back on the chaos with honesty and perspective. Brought to you by BOYS! BOYS!
