INTERVIEW with Benny and Björn in Antwerp by Roeland van de Velde Anita Notenboom talks about her first meeting with Agnetha |
REFLECTIONS ON THE 20TH ANNIVERSARY OF THE ABBF FAN CLUB Anita Notenboom, who founded the Fan Club 20 years ago, reflects on its inception and development up to the present date. She tells us the facinating story of how an idea was born and became reality with the help of her family and friends, how the club survived in times of personal hardship and has become bigger and bigger since the ABBA revival in the mid-nineties. Personal memories of meeting the former ABBA members are interwoven with Anita's reflections on some very special events she attended over the years. REPORTS & REVIEWS
