You Can Win Home For Christmas On Vinyl Signed By John Schneider and Tom Wopat


Christmas time is almost here and I'm giving away some gifts!


Last year, Tom Wopat and John Schneider released a Christmas album with all of our help on Kickstarter.  It became a huge success and created some memories that will last a lifetime.  This year, they are releasing the album on special edition vinyl!  What a great collector's item!  I've partnered with the Duke Boys and us Three Goold Ol' Boys are giving away autographed copies of  "Home For Christmas" on vinyl right here on the DukesCollector blog!


"Home For Christmas" is the first album that Tom and John have ever recorded together.  It combines Tom's swinging jazz sounds and John's Dukes inspired country with Christmas classics.  My favorite song is Johnny, It's Cold Outside.  It's got everything a Dukes fan could want.  I played the album a lot last Christmas, and I'll be doing the same for the next month.  You can buy the special edition vinyl copy, as well as a standard CD version from Tom Wopat's site.  TomWopat.com also has a link to buy a digital copy of the album.




Through the relationship I formed working with the Kickstarter project last year, I am able to give away a few signed copies of the vinyl album to you, the loyal DukesCollector readers.  It will be autographed by John Schneider and Tom Wopat and will be an incredible collector's piece.  To manage the giveaway, I'm using software called Rafflecopter.  The app is below.  It's very easy.  You sign in using your email address or Facebook.  I'm not a Facebook fan, so you don't have to have an account with them at all for my contest.  Once you sign on with your email, you have multiple ways to gain entries in the contest.  You can post comments on the blog and use Twitter to enter.   By completing all the tasks, you could gain as many as 7 entries into the drawing.  Using Rafflecopter helps build the DukesCollector brand as well as gives you several chances to win.

You might remember all the fun we had last year leading up to the album release.  The Kickstarter gave fans all sorts of different opportunities to interact with the Duke Boys.  I went to NYC for their concert and got to interview them about the album and the Dukes of Hazzard.  If you've never seen it, or haven't watched it since last year, here it is.




If you have an questions about the giveaway, please email me lafre@atlanticbb.net or contact me on Twitter.  A long time ago, I first opened a Twitter account just for contests.  It sat dormant for some time until I started using it to promote the blog.  Since then I've become pretty active on it.  If you don't have a twitter account, consider signing up to get more entries in the giveaway.  I do a good bit of Dukes talking on there and you might find that you like it.  Just yesterday I was talking with John Schneider about a potential movie role.  It's a fun way to interact with friends, make new ones, and once in a while, talk to celebrities.

To take a look back at John and Tom's two concerts in New York City promoting the release last December, check out the blog posts:

  7. Im J.R. Garrett you will see me in Larry's Sperryville grand opening vlog! I have told this story before to him. I was 6 or 7 years old and I gave a general lee rc to my local crisis center because I wanted a kid to get something for Christmas. But I done something odd on the bottom of the car I took a sharpie and really small wrote 'J.R. GL'. I didnt think anything of it. The story picks up 4 years later I go to a small school so we know everybody and our class had a gift exchange. We would draw names a week in advance and find a partner. I was asigned to get a gift for Billy a kid I did not know well. The day of our class Christmas party came he brought me cardboard box and told me merry christmas and dont open till you get back to your house! I handed him his and told hem hope you like it! So that day when I opened it was a rc general lee! I was supprised I was looking at it with amazement. I turned it over and my mouth droped it had in faded silver sharpie 'J.R. GL'! Instant karma I tell you. That is my best dukes gift!
