Multiple words with boolean - still matching single word?

Hi

We're using a boolean search in the form of:

WHERE ((MATCH (EventName, EventDesc) AGAINST ('+Keyword1 +Keyword2' IN BOOLEAN MODE) OR MATCH (Ent.Name, Ent.Town) AGAINST ('+Keyword1 +Keyword2' IN BOOLEAN MODE)))

However, we've noticed that this search is still returning matches which just contain Keyword1.

This is causing particular problems with a search on 'good times' - as a phrase it would be fine, but this is pulling back results with just the word 'good' in! I don't want to add good as a stop word as it is relevent, but I really need to search for the keywords as a phrase! Any ideas?
