Winding down and powering up...(updated with video link)

Here's a sweet "vintage" photo, by request--Bucky Covington and Rocky Covington (on drums) cast a spell on the audience at Bucky's Hershey Park concert in May. Click here to enjoy a gorgeous gallery of concert photos by the very kind Pizzi.

Edited to add a link to this WCNC news video, featuring an interview with Bucky that was filmed during his Charlotte stop. Could there be a Rockingham homecoming concert happening in the fall? Stay tuned, everyone...

Well, the good news is that Bucky's beautiful debut single is a true-blue Top Ten hit, as a quick look at the Mediabase weighted and Top 500 charts confirms. The, um, other news is that Bucky's got some very heavy duty superstars following right behind him, as a close look at those same charts will reveal. This is definitely a week when every request makes a big difference! Lia, The Big Time with Whitney Allen , Danny Wright All Night and After Midnite all take requests throughout the week, and "A Different World" would be a wonderful way to wind down your Tuesday evening and/or start out your Wednesday. Call, email, request Bucky and enjoy! And if your local country station doesn't carry these nationally syndicated shows, feel free to ask your friendly neighborhood DJ to play Bucky's single.

Here's a quick heads-up from CMT.com--Bucky's video for "A Different World" will face a rather surprising opponent in a Power Picks matchup on Wednesday. The show starts at 12 noon, ET; Bucky's video challenge will take place in the second half of the show. Look for a reminder here in Wednesday's morning post and get those mouse-clicking fingers ready to go. (Feeling the need to vote right now? Stop in at the AboutCountry Awards and give Bucky Covington your thumbs-up for Album of the Year...)

See you soon!--Winnie
