Sweet Saturday song...

Bucky and Rocky before the finale show, by request. We dig Rocky, too--thanks for asking!
(Bucky and Rocky before the Idol finale show, by request. )

It's a beautiful--well, rainy but beautiful, here in the East--Saturday morning, and no matter which side of the country you're on, you've got a chance to hear some distinctive Covington vocals tonight. Bucky and the Idols will be performing in Tacoma this evening (try your hand at Ticketmaster roulette, and a great seat might be yours!) and Rocky and Caddy Wampus are appearing at Hugo's in Rockingham tonight. And if you're looking for the latest news on Rocky, be sure to bookmark his new and very nicely done official site, RockyCovington.com.)

From an audition line in Greensboro to a red carpet in Hollywood in about a year.  Gotta be impressed!  The Covington brothers at the Idol auditions last fall.IDF is still fairly quiet, with no new photos posted as of this writing (a sure sign the back-to-school crush has started), but there are a few reviews of last night's Portland show posted at the official boards today--opinions on the concert's merits differed, to put it mildly. However, all can agree that Chris Daughtry's shout-out to his devoted young fan Boey was a beautiful highlight. (Edited to add a link to the photos of their meeting in Portland, courtesy of a kind Chris Daughtry fan at MJ's--thanks!)

And at Bucky's board at the Fox site, there's a whole lot of fun sentimental journeying goin' on--
this thread will bring back memories (Oh, the anxiety! The redialing! The group hug after 50s results night--I still recall being literally weak-kneed watching that one) and remember those symbolic support avatars? It's been a long, sweet trip--and while the Idol part of it's just about over, the fun of following Bucky Covington's career is just beginning. (More about the ongoing future-plans discussion in the next post.)

Have a lovely Saturday--back in a few!
