Breakfast with Alan Jackson

Friday October 30, 2009

Listen up Alan Jackson fans! You are invited to drop by the Cracker Barrel restaurant in the Nashville suburb of Mount Juliet on Monday, November 2 at 9 a.m. to meet Alan and have items signed from the new Alan Jackson Collection. He had a hand in designing each item in the 41-piece collection, and it's all available exclusively at Cracker Barrel restaurants nationwide.

Notable pieces include the Alan Jackson Limited Edition Rocker (rocking chair) and the CD Songs of Love and Heartache, which includes such hits as "Here in the Real World," "Livin' on Love" and "Remember When." As a bonus, the CD also contains two new singles, "That's What I'd Be Like Without You" and "Nothing Sure Looked Good on You."

Of his life-long relationship with Cracker Barrel, Alan said, "I grew up in the South. It has been a part of my family since I was a young man. I've been very impressed with the variety and quality of the items we've put together. I think my fans and their families will appreciate everything in the collection."

Numbered tickets for the event will be distributed on a first come, first served basis, and no one is allowed to get in line for the tickets before 6 a.m., so no camping out! Cracker Barrel will serve breakfast throughout the event, which ends at 11 a.m.

If you're able to attend, post a comment here and tell us about meeting Alan!

It would have been great to see Mr. Jackson on Nov. 2nd, but the news arrived in my e-mail on Nov. 10th.
But I wouldn’t have made the 600 mile trip from Indiana. [guessing at mileage] I’ve met no celebrities in my life….an actor back in the 1950’s came to our town as we celebrated our 150th year, but I passed him on the street. We got looks as we were young teenagers.
It would be worth seeing Alan Jackson, but I’m pretty
shy and I could never have seen me running like a
crazy person to get something signed.
Those are my comments.
