Video: Bucky Covington sings "Santa Claus Is Coming To Town" and a little NYE update...

Better watch out! This exuberant vintage performance by Bucky Covington and his band was captured in 2007 by the very kind FLCathy; enjoy a little taste of "Santa Claus is Comin' to Town", and get ready for the gift of "I Wanna Be That Feeling" on your country radio station after the holidays...

A friend told us that Bucky Covington's rockin' version of "Santa Claus Is Comin' to Town" was heard on both WALS in Oglesby, IL and KXDD in Yakima, WA in the past couple of days--and it might be playing on your local country radio station this week, too. If not, why not hop on that good ol' request line...

In the meantime, coverage of that Birmingham-area benefit for injured firefighter Brad Dean continues to roll in; Bucky tweeted a link to this video from local station ABC 33/40, and it's well worth a look. (As the story notes, donations are still being accepted at HelpTheGoodGuys.com.)

As for concert news, the Hometown Tour wrapped up with a bang earlier this month, but word has it that plenty of live show fun is in store for 2012. Bucky's official site will no doubt be updated soon with new tour dates, and we're gonna leave this link to Toby Keith's I Love This Bar & Grill at Harrah's Las Vegas right here, in case Bucky's name turns up on the page for that rumored NYE show. We did find a reference to the show on the Caesar's Windsor site that reads, in its entirety, "Country Star Bucky Covington gives a special NYE concert at 10pm! Only at Toby Keith’s I Love This Bar & Grill at Harrah’s Las Vegas". We're hoping for official word on this show soon, but if you'll be in Las Vegas, we can't think of a better way to ring in the new year than this particular party, y'all!

We'll be back with more very soon--have a beautiful evening!
