seen the show in Bathurst NB—was a very special feeling to see and listen to a legend and a half.—respect the reasons behind this tour. even as a 33 yr old I can still relate many moments spent with family and friends growin up and fukin up with your music in my heart,,,,, and truly happy to see you here on the North Shore. great job/great band/ your legend lives strong and hard around here-much respect.
First I would like to thank you for your music it’s safe to say you will go down in history as one of the greatest songwriters to ever live , I myself play music and write songs I started In 91 and recorded with different musicians in the Little rock area , writing now is strictly my life , my day job is a locomotive Engineer , I always come out when you get close to see your show and the different musicians you bring with you, my favorite one would have to be Red Volkaert , and that boy from Louisiana who plays them Hank Williams songs on the squeeze box , you told the audience we would love it and you were not kidding , of all the shows I have seen I guess I met all of your band members at one time or another and enjoyed the visit we had , but I never met you , Fuzzy has been especially good to me through the years and I will never forget that he and I have a mutual friend here in ark , I see you have some shows coming up close that I intend on seeing , and hopefully I can meet you , I would like to thank you in person for the lifelong bus ride you have been on to bring us all your music , thank you Mr Haggard , and if I can meet you it would mean the world to me, we don’t all get to meet our Heros as you know , just know this you are mine , and you are in my eyes the best songwriter who has ever lived , my favorite style of music is Western swing and your work on Bob Wills for the last time is a masterpiece ,
I was at your concert in Sydney Nova Scotia last week, it was absolutely amazing! I listen to your music constantly and would go see you again in a heartbeat. You still got it!
My wife and I went to see Merle last night in Saint John, New Brunswick, Canada, we were in the third row center.
What a great show you and the band put on Merle. I had never seen you live before, only on TV.
I will be forever impressed.
Thank you Merle, please come back again.
All the best, Woolie.
Merle,

Hi there, just enjoyed your show in PEI, Canada, we took the ferry over from N.S. to watch your show. Merle Haggard and band were amazing, must be great to have family travel with you in your band. We have been fans for many many years. We have gotten to see Johnny Cash and June Carter, the Highwaymen and many other country stars and we were so excited to hear that Merle was coming to the maritimes. Thank you so much for the awesome show.
Just saw Merle Haggard’s concert in Summerside, PEI last evening. What an amazing show! It was just like listening to a Merle Haggard CD. His voice was outstanding and he just kept singing his hits , one after another without a flaw. His band was totally incredible-a show I will never forget. Hats off to Merle and The Strangers. John Gavin
Ive been a huge Merle Haggard fan since my Dad listened to him on the old 8-track tapes,i fell in love with all his songs and to this day i love Merle haggard,i didn’t know what he did in his early life or didn’t care i loved his music.I went to your show in Charlottetown last night it was so good to see you,your son’s look just like you when you were young,i had my picture taken with one of them,but i was very disappointed cause you didn’t sign autographs and i didn’t get a chance to see you up close,although one member who was selling in your store did take my book and got you to sign it for me and for that i thank him very much,There will never be another Merle Haggard and today’s music isn’t country music.sorry,I LOVE YOU MERLE AND ALL YOUR SONGS MY FAVORITE SONG SING ME BACK HOME,THAT WAS MY GRAMMIES FAVORITE SONG.MYdad passed away i 2009 and i wish you had come to the Maritimes in your earlier years so he could have seen you.
Great show last night Merle…Couldn’t believe you had made it to little ole PEI….Your lucky you left the stage when you did..a couple a more songs and that crowd wouldn’t have let you leave the island!
You are the real deal. The outlaw/cowboy/country singer that so many wanted to be.
Thanks for the songs.
We saw the show in Charlottetown last night and it was excellent. Merle was wonderful and had a great rapport with the audience. It was a thrill to see and hear him in person. The band was the best! It was like listening to a cd- a perfect execution by all. You left us wanting more and we could have listened to you for hours. Our group had all ages from 80-20 years old and everyone enjoyed the show thoroughly. The opening acts were great too. Thanks for coming to Charlottetown and for being the poet of the people.
Merle Iappreciate your music and your wisdom over the years. I am trying not to ” love you to death” like I did Johnny Waylon and George , but Im sorry , you guys were and always will be ” COUNTRY MUSIC” And thats the truth . And I still love Lefty Frizell too. And we all know why . God Bless you and your family members . Thanks for giving yourself to us all these years . Marty In Iowa
