A family affair...(Flash post, 7/25)

If you'd like to say hello to the Covington family, the official boards are the place to be this week. Both Bucky's wife Crystal and his "Special Mother" Tracey have graciously popped in to greet fans at the support threads there, and the board is naturally hopping with last-minute news about this weekend's "Rocky Rally." (And if you're lucky enough to be in Rockingham on the 28th and 29th, you can catch Rocky Covington with Caddy Wampus--and a lot of his and Bucky's mutual fans--at Hugo's for great live music and some classic N.C. style fun, then top it all off with the Idol concert in Greensboro on the 30th. Bucky Covington Online has more info on their front page, and there are several different threads with details at the Fox boards and at Bucky Country. Please say hi for us and enjoy the weekend!)

(And a curious reader passed this link along--does anyone have any more info on Rocky's possible film role, as mentioned at Glitterati Gossip? Lots of talent in that family...)

A little eye candy today, too: via Idolforums, an impressive concert gallery of shots taken from a great seat at the Rochester show; and this fun photo/autograph thread from The Official Soul Patrol's board includes a striking windblown shot of Bucky greeting fans before the same concert.

Last but definitely not least, be sure to catch Kathy's latest CD news (and beautiful graphics) at Team Covington. (I'm with her--it's never too soon to start thinking like a street team...)

More later--stop on back!
