FRI, 1/27: Free John Schneider Meet And Greet

In continuing The Great Escape's 40th anniversary celebration, we are proud to announce a Meet and Greet with actor and musician John Schneider! John will be appearing in our special events room at our Charlotte Avenue Superstore location starting at 7:00 p.m. to discuss the release of his new album, Ruffled Skirts. He will also talk a little bit about his independent films, his television show The Haves & The Have Nots and whatever else may come up. John will also be bringing his guitar along and play some acoustic samples for the audience. There will be copies of Ruffled Skirts on CD for sale, as well as other merchandise. An autograph will come with any purchase of the Ruffled Skirts CD. John is perhaps most known for his work as Bo Duke on the television show The Dukes of Hazzard. He also played Jonathan Kent on the superhero show Smallville. He had a recurring role on Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman and was in several episodes of Desperate Housewives.  Currently, John is starring in his fifth season of Tyler Perry’s The Haves and The Have Nots, which airs on the Oprah Winfrey Network. John is an avid supporter of independent films, and recently concluded a touring film festival that he sponsored. The Cineflix Film Festival toured through four southeastern states, going to places where independent films usually do not show. He released his own film last year, “Like Son,” that he wrote and directed.  During the 1980s, John jumped into the music business and had a string of successful country hits, including four #1 singles on the country charts. These were “I’ve Been Around Enough To Know” (1984), “Country Girls” (1985), “You’re The Last Thing I Needed Tonight” (1986), and “What’s A Memory Like You (Doing In A Love Like This)” (1986). His new album, Ruffled Skirts, has songs that were inspired by the recent floods in Louisiana. His home and studio were severely affected. Don’t forget, this special event starts at 7:00 p.m. on Friday, 1/27, at our Charlotte Avenue Superstore location and seating for this will be limited! We are looking forward to John Schneider's appearance!!
