Quick Saturday news: Bucky Covington at the Mountain State Forest Festival, "Gotta Be Somebody" preparing for takeoff, Country's Chatter and more...

The very gracious Jackie Blue captured this terrific photo of Bucky Covington on stage at his recent homecoming concert in Rockingham, NC; please click the image to check out his full concert schedule. Thanks, Jackie!

Kudos to a kind elf for passing this fun news along--Bucky Covington's new single, "Gotta Be Somebody" [listen to it at Headline Country now], has been heard all over the country in various songflights and challenges on stations like KNCI in Sacramento, KFGY in Santa Rosa, 93.7 K-Country in Ocala (some concert photos of Bucky, Jack Ingram and Chris Young from that recent acoustic show there are posted now--thanks!) and many more. The song should be popping up on the Mediabase "Taking Off" listings soon--looks like it's off to a great start!

Updated: Thanks to Redbird TX and a sweet elf for sending this gorgeous "Gotta Be Somebody" promo graphic created by the mega-talented Lisa/JudgeFL of BuckWild fame. Click the image to view it full size, and feel free to post it everywhere with her blessings. Thank you, Lisa!



More Rockingham memories are presented in fine style at the always-excellent Country's Chatter blog today, where Lisa P. shared her experience at Bucky's homecoming show with beautiful photos and informative commentary. Huge thanks to Lisa and Country for this must-read!

A must see for anyone near Elkins, WV today--Bucky and his band will rock the Mountain State Forest Festival tonight. It's happening at the Harper McNeeley Auditorium, and if you're thinking of a last minute Saturday night detour (recommended!) call 304-636-1824 for the latest information. Look for an October concert update here on Sunday, and check out Bucky's MySpace calendar, Buckytown USA's concert sidebar and Bucky's official tour page for his full fall-winter schedule...

You might catch a glimpse or two of Bucky on TV today, as well--the Greensboro audition episode of American Idol Rewind will air in most areas sometime today, so check local listings and/or LocateTV.com for time and channel. (The TV Guide Channel will replay it next week.)

Finally, by special request, here's Danna Marie's stunning video clip of Bucky and his band performing "Evel Knievel", a song from his upcoming second album, I'm Alright. (We hope this'll be a single someday, too!) Enjoy, and we'll see you soon--Winnie
