Mark you calendars, country and bluegrass
fans!
Continuing a great summer of special events,
The Great Escape announces an upcoming appearance of Country Music Hall Of Fame
living legend Mac Wiseman at The Great Escape's Charlotte
Avenue location on Saturday, August 29th at
1:00 p.m.
Wiseman
will do a 30 minute live performance and a book
signing for his newly-published "Mac Wiseman: All My Memories Fit For
Print." (His book signing and meet-and-greet with fans will follow the live
performance.) This book is currently on sale for $29.99 at our Madison & Bowling Green stores, as well as the
Charlotte Avenue Superstore location.
Mac
Wiseman has had an unprecedented career, stretching from the 1940s to the
present: first as a broadcaster, then as a musician for pioneers Buddy
Starcher, Molly O'Day, Flatt &
Scruggs and Bill Monroe, and finally as a solo singer,
hitting his stride with the ballad, "Davy Crockett" and "Jimmy Brown The Newsboy." Behind the scenes, Mac produced
acts like Reno & Smiley, Cowboy Copas and
Bonnie Guitar. After many years in this role, he reemerged as a
college circuit favorite; was the first bluegrass artist touring Europe,
recorded with Big Band leader Woody Herman, helped originate
1990's Groovegrass Boyz with Doc
Watson, Del McCoury & Bootsy
Collins, cut new Millenium discs with John Prine,
Charlie Daniels, Merle Haggard and did the
last recordings with buddy Johnny Cash.
The 90-year old Wiseman officially retired in 2007 and
rarely makes public appearances anymore. Don’t miss your chance
to meet this living legend, get his autograph
and watch him perform.
Space is limited. If you wish to
attend, please fill out and turn in the RSVP form below at the
Charlotte Avenue, Madison or Bowling Green location of The Great Escape- or

Huge $1 Comic Book Sidewalk Sale & 35% off Back Issue Comics: SAT, 8/15 at Great Escape Madison
Hey, folks-
It's been a great summer for special events at the Great Escape this year- and we've loved seeing so many faces, both old and new, during the last couple of months.
Now, here's a new event at our Madison store: a $1 Comic Book Sidewalk Sale this SAT, 8/15 from 10 a.m. - 5 p.m.
1,000s & 1,000s of Back Issue Comics, regularly priced $2.99-$9.99 (from various genres), will be offered for sale at the ridiculously low price of $1 each on our sidewalk- many of which are in like-new, unread condition (having been pulled from our new comics stands). And, many issues are also already bagged & boarded- making for even bigger bargains!
Inside the store, we'll be taking 35% off all Back Issue Comic Books*, used Trade Paperbacks, Hardcovers and Graphic Novels (a savings of an additional 10% off our everyday low price of 25% off on all of these). Additionally, all Grab Bags and Sale Comics will also receive the 35% off discount.
And, all Collector's Supplies will be 20% off for this event only: Bags, Dividers, Boxes, Boards, etc. (That's an additional savings of 10% on these as well, since they're always 10% off at all locations of The Great Escape.)
This will be the perfect opportunity to fill in the issues in your collection that you need, or try some titles that you've not read before- and do so at a tiny fraction of what you'd ordinarily pay.
SALE HOURS
$1 COMIC BOOK SIDEWALK SALE: 10 a.m. - 5 p.m.
35% OFF BACK ISSUE COMICS SALE: 10 a.m. - 9 p.m. (Regular Hours)
(Note: 20% off Collector's Supplies sale also lasts until 9 p.m.)
You might want to get here early and come back often- since fresh product will be restocked regularly during sale hours.
Sale happens rain or shine; we have a covered sidewalk.
This sale will be for one day: this Saturday, 8/15- at The Great Escape's Madison location only.
*$1 Comics on sidewalk exempt from additional discount.

Exceptional Jazz LP & Metal CD collections go into stock FRI, 8/7 at Great Escape Charlotte Avenue
Jazz vinyl and rock/heavy metal CD fans and
collectors take note-
The Great Escape on Charlotte Avenue has recently purchased some great music that we will be offering for sale at 10 a.m. on Friday, August 7th.
The jazz vinyl is a life-long collection of over 1,000 jazz LPs from the estate of one of our long-time customers- and consists of records mainly from the 1950s & 1960s, many of which were acquired by this collector when they were new. It features a large assortment of artists and a wide range of jazz styles. The records are overall in really nice shape, with many of them looking like they have had very little play.
A large number of these records are mono pressings, and quite a few have the Deep Groove record labels. This collection has more promo & white label promo label pressings than we have seen in a Jazz collection in a very long time. There are also more than 50 ten inch LPs from the 1950s on labels such as Norgran, Clef, Roost, Pacific Jazz & others.
We also recently acquired over 700 CDs from a music critic who wrote reviews for many prominent metal magazines. Consisting of both import & domestic titles, there are numerous rock, prog & metal releases, which are all in excellent condition. The collection ranges from the obscure to the Top-40; there is something for any rock lover in this group.
So, make your plans to come by The Great Escape Superstore soon, located at 5400 Charlotte Avenue in Nashville, Tennessee. The fun begins when we open at 10 a.m. on Friday, August 7th.
We hope to see you soon!
