manager, Harold Boner. It was Narvel's friend,
Huey, P. Long who assists Narvel by selling the photos and CDs in Narvel's autograph line.)

I attended the
Country Gold concert on August 18. The
entire concert was awesome. Narvel was
one of the crowd favorites, which
usually happens wherever I've seen him
perform. I became a fan when Narvel was
inducted into the Missouri Country Music
Hall of Fame. He became one of what I
call my "Top 3," along with Merle
Haggard and Dwight Yoakam. Excellent
company to be in! When it was announced
that Narvel would be a part of the
Country Gold concert in 2009, I was one
of the first in line to buy tickets.
But it was not to be, as there was a
dangerous storm the night of the
concert. So - it was a thrill to
finally experience the entire Country
Gold concert. I was at the end of very
long line waiting to talk to the
performers. You could tell they were all
exhausted, but Narvel was his usual
gracious self. He always acts as if you
are his only fan. I'm always drawn to
the performers who are not only
excellent singers and musicians, but who
always appear to be genuinely nice
people.
I'm attaching a
picture which you may use at your
discretion. You can see just a little
of the silly $3.00 hat that I purchased
just to have something for the
performers to sign. People thought it
was weird, but when it was filled with
autographs, it looked pretty good!
I have a question.
There was a gentleman with Narvel at the
autograph table. Who was he? I
starting wondering later if that was
Harold Boner.
Thanks,
Sharon P.

Absolutely outstanding!!! GREAT
performance. It was so good to hear him sing "If Ever
Two Were One". I love all of Narvel's music, but this
is one of favorites. It is always a special a treat to
see his show. The program was running late (as usual)
and I had to travel a couple of hours to return home,
so I did not get to stay and talk to him after the
show. Looking forward to next time. (If he cuts a new
CD, I hope it includes "If Ever Two Were One".)

Dear Marli,
We are Pat and Terry Cross, of Hayward, WI. We found
your email address on Narvel's website. We saw Narvel on
Dec 1, 2007 at the LCO Casino near Hayward. We were
having a blizzard the day of his concert. We kept
calling the Casino to see if Narvel was still coming. We
found out he arrived there on Friday and the concert was
Saturday night and we weren't going to let a snowstorm
keep us from going to see Narvel. We have seen him at
least 3 times before at the LCO Casino and we think he
is a fantastic singer and entertainer. And Narvel was
the best we had ever seen him on the night of Dec. 1,
2007! We know that a lot of people didn't make it to the
show because of the storm, but they missed a Fantastic
show. Narvel gives 120% at his shows. We are looking
forward to seeing him here again someday. We will even
travel to see him.
That's all we have to say at this time. Take care and
may God Bless you. God Bless Narvel and his family also.

Narvel's Indy Show 06-23-07
From Greg
Limbach
My friend Kim Wagerman and I just attended
Narvel’s show on June 23, at the Rockabilly Rebel Weekend in Indianapolis IN. What a
performance Narvel put on! Not only did Narvel “wow” the crowd, he also
“wowed” the members of the the band backing him up. Early in the show Narvel
sang “Crying”. When Narvel’s voice reached for and hit the first of the
high notes in the song, I noticed the look on bass player's face. His eyes widened in
amazement. He had the look of someone that had just opened the Christmas present that
they’ve always wanted.
That was early in the show. Narvel would continue to give many more vocal presents to the
fans and the band members during the course of the evening.

PS- I'm also attaching a photo taken of Narvel at a show at the Music Ranch USA, in April
of 2006.

Hi Marli,
I have attached a of photo of Narvel with my husband Brian Duggan (Stage Manager at
Americana) and another of Narvel with Brian and Travis Ledoyt who also appeared at
Americana.
I had never seen Narvel perform before and it was one of the highlights of Americana for
me, his voice is amazing and what a gentleman he is. I hope it won't be too long before we
see him again.
Please pass on Brian's and my love to Narvel and tell him Brian says it is always a
pleasure to work with him.Sue Duggan,
(Aussie who got him the cold water for on stage)

Paw Paw, MI Nov. 2005
From Bob & Tricia Henning of Livonia, MI
Van Buren County Sheriff's Posse sponcered this Narvel show in the new Paw Paw High School
performing arts center and let me tell you that this was beautiful. One of the nicest I've
seen since I've been traveling to music shows.
I could say that Narvel gets better every time we see him, but that wouldn't be possible.
Let's just say he converts new fans where-ever he performs.

Bemidji, Minnesota 2004
from Brian Carlson
(click on photo for larger view)
2004-
Narvel and Jeannie Seely with promoter Brian Carlson of the Brian Carlson Talent Agency
out of Grand Rapids, Minnesota at a show in Bemidji, Minnesota. Both singers had teamed
with Steve Hall and the Shotgun Red Band to play in Coleraine and Bemidji, Minnesota to
help raise funds for the Vounteers for the Handicapped Association and the Ours to Serve
House of Hospitality for the homeless.
"I
remember a tune the two decided at the last minute to do that brought the house
down", said Carlson, " I was impressed with their friendliness and down home
presence with the audience. It was fun listening to them talk about 'the business' and how
they got their start as I drove them to their hotel nearly 3 hours away. They are a
precious pair that should be playing together more often! God Bless you both!"
Narvel's Appearance, Brunnsum, The
Netherlands
Date: Wed, 6 Aug 2003
From Mike Austing
It was our great pleasure to attend
Narvel's appearance at the NCO Club, AFCENT HQ, Brunnsum, Limburg Province, The
Netherlands approximately 26 years ago.
My wife and I, along with my MP partner, had purchased tickets for the Johnny Paycheck
show at that club. This was about the time that Johnny's song, "Take This Job And
Shove It" became extremely popular. It was said that Johnny "became sick"
and couldn't perform (yeah, right!). Narvel and his Drifters filled in at the last moment.
They had been on a tour of clubs in Germany and all of them weren't feeling too well.
All I can say is, I'm certainly glad Johnny bowed out! I have never enjoyed a more
pleasant experience as I did that night listening to Narvel and his boys!! Since
that night, my wife and I have become lifelong Narvel fans. His tape and I cruise the
highways and byways of SE Ohio in my job as a material damage appraiser for Ohio Mutual
Insurance Group-he IS what makes a long day short.
Narvel: Thank you! May the grace of God keep you alive and performing a long long time!!
Please consider a show date or two in central or eastern Ohio in the near future!! I'll
certainly do my part to fill the venue!
