I am a Nelson fan first and foremost because of the lasting impression Matthew and Gunnar left on me at our first meeting in 1999. I was working freelance for a local newspaper and was doing a piece on them. Their kindness and openness blew me away. Thanks again Matthew for the hot chocolate.
The love of their music came after I purchased a cd at that show and have loved it ever since.
Being involved in the NST and all the great work we have accomplished has kept me believing that we can make a difference.
