Coffee break news: conference calls, MySpace moves, plumper bullets and a sweet thumbs-up

What better tune for an American Friday Night than this one? Thanks to Lars1942 for this great video from Bucky's show in Katy, Texas--there's more from that show in their YouTube profile. Enjoy!

Many thanks to the very gracious Hildi and her helpers for hosting tonight's call from Bucky's show in Tampa! Stay tuned for more events as the Throttle Wide Open tour keeps rolling...

MySpace users will want to make note of a new address for CMT's official space--you can add them to your friends list, and be sure to add the official CMT Top 20 Countdown MySpace while you're there. (The latter left a comment asking who you'd like to see on the countdown--I had a suggestion. Bet you do, too...)

Other fun MySpaces to add: GAC's official space (very nice one, with a link to Bucky's right out front), the official CMT Fest space, and the Grand Ole Opry.

On the charts tonight, Bucky's "It's Good to Be Us" is holding steady at #14 on the Mediabase weighted and Top 500 listings, with two somewhat plumper bullets. Fun to see those grow! Help them along with a request line call to Lia, The Big Time with Whitney Allen, Danny Wright All Night, After Midnite and your favorite local country station DJ tonight.

Finally, thanks to the elf who passed this link along--US 93.3 in Fort Wayne has a fun "New Music Ambassadors" section on their site, and "It's Good to Be Us" is featured right on top of the new music reviews. Click here to read what the Ambassador had to say...

Have a great American Friday Night!--Winnie
