Bucky Covington on stage at the Wildhorse Saloon in Nashville, 11/17; photo by the very gracious Buckyflowers, who shares more of her beautiful concert shots here. Thanks again, Buckyflowers! 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 at his official site or via his official fan club.It's a quiet Saturday, but there are still a few news bits here and there:
We'll put last night's ticket alert up top again for all who'd like to spend New Years Eve with Bucky, Keith Anderson and Luke Bryan in Chicago next month. VIP and hotel/dinner/show for the US99.5 New Year's Eve Ball are available now (in pairs only), and individual tickets will go on sale beginning today at 10 a.m. at Ticketmaster. Sounds like a rockin' way to ring in the New Year--have fun!
And there's no Ticket Blast for the 11/29 WIL Jinglefest in Missouri today, but if you're listening to WIL right now, you'll have a chance to win tickets every hour this weekend between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. Bucky Covington, Eric Church and headliner Taylor Swift will make the season bright for the lucky ticket winners. Tune in and good luck--hope to see you there...
Bucky's single "It's Good to Be Us" is starting Saturday at #31 on both the Mediabase weighted and Top 500 charts again today, and the plumpness of those bullets is a very good sign. ( A kind anonymous commenter also noted that Bucky's rockin'-sweet rendition of "Santa Claus Is Comin' to Town" got some radio time--congrats to Bucky's fans in Des Moines, who can hear Bucky wishing them a musical Merry Christmas on 97.3 The Hawk.) Tonight's the night for those great nationally syndicated shows to shine, and Lia, The Big Time with Whitney Allen , Danny Wright All Night and the Bo Reynolds Show are all excellent options for a phone or email request for "It's Good to be Us".
But if you're looking for a way to have even more fun sharing the good word about Bucky's fantastic new tune--and maybe win some stunning prizes while you're at it--drop in at his official MySpace blog now for details on a new contest that'll amaze you! Prizes include rare goodies like personalized photos, a conference call with Bucky himself, meet and greet passes and lots more. I won't ruin the Grand Prize for you--hop over there now and see it for yourself, then get ready to try for the chance to experience Bucky's show in a whole new way. And take note...if you'd like to discuss the contest with your team-to-be, there's now a Street Team forum with free registration on Bucky Covington's official site --sign up and join the fun!
While all this is taking shape, there's still plenty of fun to be had supporting Bucky's new single and video in classic style--keep requesting "It's Good to Be Us" at your favorite local or streaming country station, watch the video at CMT, then cast your vote for Bucky at GAC's Top 20 Country Countdown, at CMT's Top 20 Countdown, at the GAC Top 50 Videos of the Year poll and at CMT's Pure Country Pure 12-Pack.
And if you're in Greenville, tonight's your night to enjoy "It's Good to Be Us" and a the rest of Bucky's live and loud set right up close! The Raisin' the Bar tour hits South Carolina this evening for a wild time at the Blind Horse Saloon before heading north again later this week--if you haven't had the pleasure of hearing Bucky Covington, Jason Michael Carroll and Cole Deggs & the Lonesome raise your bar on one unforgettable night, what are you waiting for?

ReplyDeleteIts nice to see Bucky's bullet getting bigger. I was worried for a bit.
~m~
He's up to #19 on Mediabase Jump chart.
ReplyDeleteLooking really good. Most of those above him have been award winners lately, so he will get there once they go recurrent.
On Operation Home, one of the groups we are supporting in Iraq is a group of women. So, besides a Bucky CD, if you're inclined to send anything else, think Venus. (pink razors, feminine packages, shampoo, stationery)
Thanks for all the support so far.

Thanks, Marzy and Pogo! Yep, very good to see that nice plump bullet and the Jump stats, too--the coming chart week should be great.
ReplyDeletePogo, thanks for the update on the current needs at Operation Home! I added a button on the sidebar so that everyone can hop over to the Operation Home MySpace without worrying about the link scrolling off the front page. You're very kind!
