I'm Winny from the Netherlands and i started this site in june 2007, because i think Neil's a fantastic musician/guitarist/singer and he deserves to have a fanclub and more support for his music. And i know there are many of you who think that too. And for all the fans i wanted to make a nice site where you can get the latest news, pictures, listen to his music, win signed cd's, and be in contact with other fans in the forumgroup.
I want to thank all you fans for adding the fanclub as their friend and supporting it!
I'm trying very hard to make the space look nice and to add new features regularly.
I hope you all will enjoy reading and watching all the great Neil features. I'll keep you updated. I'm sorry if i can't react to your comments though, I just haven't got the time to do that. But if you have a question, or suggestions please let me know! Just send a message (in english, dutch, german or french) and i'll try to answer it(answers only in english or dutch) as soon as possible.
Neil did let me know he likes the way the space looks and appreciate everything i'm are doing for him on this site. Ofcourse i'm happy to oblige......
