Bucky Covington gets into the groove in Hanover, Maryland in this fun concert photo by our friend Pizzi. You can enjoy more of her great shots from the show here. Thanks again, Pizzi!Here's the Concert Roundup for October; the shows listed here are the ones on Bucky Covington's official website. Occasionally, information about a concert that isn't listed there turns up. If I find any, I'll pop them onto this list. Bucky, Rocky, Don, Hans and Shaun put on an amazing show--get out and see them when they hit your neck of the woods!
We'll borrow the official site's caveat: "All dates (and times) are subject to change; please consult with the venue before traveling long distances." (Most shows offer the chance for a fan club meet and greet--if you're interested, head to BuckyCovington.com to join the official fan club, request meet and greets, and check current availability.) See you at the show!--Winnie
