Bucky Covington on stage at the Whiskey Roadhouse in Council Bluffs on April 12th; photo by the very kind Rachel, who was on hand to enjoy the show. (Thanks again, Rachel!)It's Saturday, and between voting at the AboutCountry "Album of the Year" poll this morning, requesting "A Different World" on those great syndicated country radio shows tonight, and (if you're fortunate enough to be in the Twin Lakes vicinity) cheering for Bucky in person at the Country Thunder USA festival this evening, there are plenty of chances to show your favorite rising star some affection today. Mercifully, the AboutCountry poll closing date has been changed to Monday, July 23rd at about 3 p.m., so this weekend is power-voting time. We'll do another Power Picks style "vote in" today at 6 p.m. ET--this is just an informal one, and it'll "officially" last for an hour--unofficially, of course, vote early, vote late, vote often...
Come on back for the morning news in a few hours--see you then!--Winnie
