Bucky Covington soaks in the sun at the Foothills Fall Festival in Maryville, Tennessee on 10/13; photo by our talented friend Janie. Click the image to see more of her excellent concert shots. Thanks, Janie!We'll have more news for you here later today-- but for now, here's a spot of cheer to start off our Sunday. Bucky Covington's exuberant tune "It's Good to Be Us" continues its Top 20 quest by retaking the #23 spot this morning on the Mediabase weighted chart; it holds on to #24 on the Top 500. We'll keep those requests flying...
The Covington Times has a terrific "video of the day" as well as two fun shots--one "vintage" and one recent show shot by MaryMc that'll make you smile. Go check it out!

"It's Good to Be Us" is also on a Top 20 quest on CMT's Top 20 Countdown , of course--we're a bit mystified by its absence, too, but we'll keep voting and crossing our fingers! While we're waiting for its debut there, we can watch the video at CMT, and vote for "It's Good to Be Us" at GAC's Top 20 Country Countdown, and at CMT's Pure Country Pure 12-Pack.More very soon--enjoy your day!
I am finding myself counting to 10 before I comment about why CMT Top 20 has not added IG2BU!!! Are we doing something wrong? Has anyone ever heard if we are really limited to one vote? I vote non-stop there and stream the video until my lap top is hot to the touch! lol! Same with 12 Pack. I post on all message boards, sometimes I even answer myself!! I have noticed some newer video's being added, Dolly Parton, Chuck Wicks that came out after IG2BU and older video's that have been on the Top 20 it seems like forever!! I guess I should not complain though, forgive me!!!
ReplyDeleteHey, kerri...sorry I missed you last night!
ReplyDeleteAnd really, all I can say is "ditto"--it's very frustrating! I honestly think we are doing all we can...and a little more. :) It'll be sweet when it finally doesn happen, but the wait is still truly mystifying.
Sigh. Guess we'll just have to keep the faith!
