Wednesday news: Bucky Covington's "It's Good to Be Us" video on GAC tomorrow night, Las Vegas photos and more...

Bucky Covington's debut CD is in stores now, and his music videos are available for online viewing at CMT.com and Yahoo Music. You can buy Bucky's album at Amazon, Best Buy , iTunes, WalMart Music and Target, hear the full versions of his singles at CMT and GAC, or enjoy samples of songs from the CD at Bucky's official MySpace. A copy of Bucky Covington can be ordered through his official site or via his official fan club.

Head over to GAC and set your Tivo! Bucky Covington's exhilarating new video for "It's Good to Be Us" will make its TV debut on GAC tomorrow, Thursday, 10/25 at approximately 9:08 p.m. ET, with another showing at 1:08 a.m. in the wee hours of Friday morning. It'll also be added to the rotation on CMT's digital Pure Country channel on Thursday--no word on a specific airtime, but keep your eye out for it there. "It's Good to Be Us" has been spotted at AOL Video already (thanks to the very kind Marzy for the link), and it'll be turning up on Bucky's AOL Music and Yahoo Music pages very soon. And of course, you can watch it at any time on CMT.com--stream it now and get the day started off with a smile...

Some fresh new concert photos are guaranteed to raise a smile, too--stop in at the AmericanIdol.com boards and check out these great shots from Bucky's recent Las Vegas breakfast show by the very generous RockyBucky. Thanks for sharing the fun!

On the charts, we're looking a bit of deja vu this morning--"It's Good to Be Us" is once again #36 on the Mediabase weighted chart and #34 on the Top 500, with two growing bullets. Yep, I'm going to post the usual nag....er, "encouragement" here--keep requesting Bucky's new one, y'all! We'll be polite and sweet...and dedicated. It's true that the video will give it a big boost when GAC and CMT have it on the air on a regular basis; radio deserves extra helping of Covingtonian goodness as well, and requesting "It's Good to Be Us" on your favorite nationally-syndicated country radio show is a good way to celebrate the newly nationally-televised (and very popular already!) music video. Not to mention how much fun it'll be to have the song in the Top 30 or better by the time Bucky strolls out to do his presenting duties on the CMA Awards telecast November 7th...

Click the image to hear songs from Bucky Covington.  Enjoy!Bucky, Rocky, Don, Shaun and Hans will be strolling out on stage at the Texas Club in Baton Rouge tonight for a very good cause--their WYNK-sponsored show will benefit St. Jude's Children's Hospital. If you've got last-minute plans, check Ticketmaster for any remaining seats, and have a great time! This is the last official show before the wild and wonderful Raisin' the Bar tour kicks off on Thursday--co-headliners Bucky Covington and Jason Michael Carroll are set to appear on GAC's Top Twenty Country Countdown on Friday, 10/26th, and they'll no doubt have lots (and lots) to say about all the fun that's in store.

Edited to add a new link to that "behind the scenes" video--you can enjoy "The Making of 'It's Good to Be Us'" at YouTube and at Bucky's official MySpace.

More very soon--have a brilliant Wednesday!
