Our Saturday brunch fan video is a soulful, sultry treat--thanks and kudos to the talented LISAMARIE22685 for capturing this "Hold A Woman" performance in Tiffin, OH. Bucky Covington and his band will be making a few more concert stops in December; head over to Bucky's official site and Buckytown USA for more news on live dates.

It looks like it's going to be a merry post-Christmas in Music City--rumor has it that the Bucky Covington show Steve Cook alluded to on Twitter will be happening at the Hard Rock Cafe in Nashville on December 29th. This is not a totally confirmed date as yet--but our source is reliable. We'll link to the official announcement and ticket details as soon as they're available. (And yes, this'll be a full band show, so get ready to rock, y'all.) Many thanks to our very kind tipster!

If you're near Escondido, CA, get ready to rock tonight at the second and final KSON Carols by Candlelight concert, where Bucky Covington, LeAnn Rimes, the Little River Band, Jordan Pruitt, Buck Howdy and Beat Boy will grace the stage at the California Center for the Arts (340 N. Escondido Blvd). Be sure to bring a friend or two, or more--the 2-for-1 ticket special is also in effect for this evening's show, we're told. Call the box office at 800-98-TICKET and mention KSON to get your 2 for 1 tickets. You'll be helping the Rady Children's Hospital in San Diego, as well as enjoying a fantastic night out.

Thanks to the very kind Buckwild08 for this great shot of Bucky Covington (with Rocky Covington on percussion at right) on stage in Rockingham, NC. Bucky's digital EP, Live From Rockingham, is available now at Amazon and iTunes.

Nowhere near a show? No worries--you can still enjoy Bucky and his fellow Idol Season 5 alumni on American Idol Rewind today (syndicated--check local listings or LocateTV.com for time and channel) and on your local country station, too. "Gotta Be Somebody" deserves a big boost, so let your neighborhood DJ know you love it--there's a station finder and request line locator on Bucky's official site that's well worth a bookmark. The video has started its climb at GAC, where it leaped to #15 this week...we'll keep the ball rolling. Vote for Bucky at GAC's Top 20 Country Countdown and CMT's Pure 12-Pack, and have a beautiful weekend, everybody!
