Very quick Thursday news: first Bucky Covington concert photos from Buffalo, and a review from the Georgia Jukebox...

Jeff Cease and Bucky Covington get soulful on stage in Pleasanton, CA; many thanks to the very talented Minnie for this striking concert shot. Click the image to check out Bucky's tour schedule at his official site.

Bucky Covington, Justin Moore and Chris Young wowed a packed crowd in Buffalo last night at WYRK's acoustic bash, and Robyn, a kind concertgoer, posted these terrific shots from the show at TwitPic. Thanks to her for her generosity--looks like it was a great time! (The WYRK gallery hasn't been updated yet, but we're hoping for some shots from the show in that spot very soon...)

Bucky's stop in Branford, Connecticut tonight is a winners-only affair; congratulations again to all the lucky folks who'll be enjoying that show at the Woodwinds this evening. Bucky and his band's next public show is the highly-anticipated Kroger On Track for the Cure 250 Post-Race concert at the Memphis Motorsports Park on Saturday. Tickets for the race are on sale at 1-866-40-SPEED and online at Memphis Motorsports Park.com.

Coming soon: the Jacksonville Fair is just around the corner, and Bucky's Florida fans are in for a treat! He and his band perform there on November 10th, and the concert is free with fair admission. VIP seating (an extra $10) will get you closer to the stage. Time's running out on the special advance admission ticket discount, so be sure to get your tickets before 11/3 and save a little cash for that t-shirt or cap.

Bucky Covington and Ducky Medlock rocked the fans in Indianapolis a little while back; thanks again to the gracious Judy Lang for this summer tour memory.

Can an emerging country star take a risk with a recent rock hit and come out a winner? The folks at The Georgia Jukebox seem to think so, and we're with them--big surprise, yes? The Georgia Jukebox reviews Bucky Covington's "Gotta Be Somebody" here, and you'll enjoy their thoughtful take on Bucky's new single. (We'd love to hear it again on WKML's "Top 5 at 6", too...it held the "inaudible" spot on last night's countdown, but a quick email to Larry K at country @wkml.com with a request for Bucky can change all that tonight. Think of it as excellent practice for the video voting that's coming up soon...)

More later--enjoy your Thursday!
