Contests, polls and a 12-Pack to go...

Bucky Covington and Rocky Covington share a microphone at the Big Spring Jam in Huntsville; photo by the very kind Buckyflowers. Thanks so much, Buckyflowers!

A reminder about that sweet contest at Blair Garner's After Midnite--the winner snags a Bucky Covington autographed motorcycle jacket and a 200cc Motocross bike! To be entered in the drawing, you'll have to win any of the After Midnite contests during this week, so tune in and head to the After Midnite site for details, but hurry--the contest ends at 11:59 pm ET Time on January 13.

A friend listening to Lia tonight mentioned that there's a great contest in progress there, too! Lia is giving away a guitar signed by 125 artists (including Bucky) as a grand prize--you'll have to call in and tell her what you wanted but didn't get for Christmas this year, though. (And of course, request "It's Good to Be Us" while you're on the line...) As of post time, the contest description isn't on Lia's website, but keep an eye out for it soon.

A kind Taylor Hicks fan popped into Bucky's fan thread at the Fox boards to leave an intriguing message: "Hi! Wanted to let y'all know I just saw Bucky on the Birmingham news. They gave his website and said he wants the fans to pick his next single. Cool." So far, we haven't found the news video online (we'll keep looking) but if you'd like to have your say about Bucky's next radio tune, you can hop on over to his MySpace blog or his official site and cast your vote in this very important poll.

Last but not least, tonight's your final chance to make your mark on this week's CMT Pure Country Pure 12-Pack! GAC's Top 20 Country Countdown and CMT's Top 20 Countdown are looking for your opinion, too--so feel free to show Bucky's video some love...

See you soon!
