Hello everybody,

First newsletter of the new year. Hope you all started the new year well and looking forward to new and good times ahead.

Neil celebrated his 51st birthday this month and he was overwelmed by all the messages he got from all over the world. Its good to see you all remembered it and wished him a happy birthday.

So what are the plans for next month....

German tour.
In less then 2 weeks (febr. 10th) Neil's tour in Germany/Austria starts. Joining him on stage Gary Nuttall and at some gigs even Neil's girlfriend Sachi and their son Johnny will be there as well. So everybody thats going to one of the concerts are in for one (or more) exciting evening of grand entertainment. Not that i want to add anymore pressure on Neil's shoulders by saying this....lol. We all know he will be doing a great job anyway! Now if you all listen to his album very carefully and memorize the lyrics, so you can all join in and sing along when he's performing, it will be even better!

I will record two of the concerts on video myself so all of you who can't be there will be able to see it later.

Just a reminder if you want to check the dates and locations of all the gigs: check the calendar on this site

Dutch gigs
In march (16th and 25th) are 2 solo acoustic gigs planned in the Netherlands. We tried to add more to make it a minitour, still working on that but its all a bit short notice so he might be back later in the year in Holland for more if we can get it all organised. So stay tuned.....

Acoustic album
Neil has been working on an acoustic album. Some acoustic versions of songs of his album No Self Control, some older songs that never been released on cd before and a new one. Its going to be released by the Hypertension label this summer but i already can reveal the names of the songs that are going to be on it.

In no specific order:
Silver Man
Chasing Butterflies
Dream Machine
Walk Away [live version]
Cocaine Blues
No God
Shadows Fall
Would You Love Me
No Self Control
Drive Away

For all you lucky ones that attend one of Neil's gigs...an early pre-release of the acoustic album will be sold at the gigs as well.

Fanclub info
We've had some problems with the mobile version of this site. It seemed fixed 2 weeks ago but now its back down again. So for now the site is still visible through your mobile devices but only the normal full webversion. Sorry for the inconvinience.

The website has been upgraded to a pro standard. That means it will have more storage for photo's and video's, we were almost out of storage so it had to be done if we want to get all the upcomming new photo's and video's in the already large archive on this site. So now we're good to go for at least the upcomming two years.

The fanclub membership will stay free of charge but if you want to make a donation to help out with the costs of hosting this site...you're more then welcome:D. Just scroll down at the sidebar and click the donation button...you can deside yourself how much you want to donate.

The number of members of this site is now around 1800, but if every one of them is a  fan is doubtfull...some members have real funny names and emailadresses...(SPAM) and profiles which mention viagra website etc....lol. So every now and then i'll check new members and will delete those that i think are fakes. So if you have or want to make an account make sure you use a real email adress and normal name.

Keep rocking

Winny x
