I love those Las Vegas shots, too--beautiful photos, and it sure looks like he had a blast out there at the pool party. :) Good morning to you!<BR/><BR/><BR/>Ahhh...comments. Since my media lurkers rarely come in here, I can say what I couldn't quite say out front. :)<BR/><BR/>(Please forgive the following--I am guessing most everyone who comes here already knows this stuff, but for the benefit of those who are new to the whole requesting thing, here's some info from an insider...)<BR/><BR/>My radio contact friend tells me that far-in-advance requests for an upcoming single are not necessarily helpful--since only the diehard fans and street teamers read the trade papers, industry site etc. and know things like "spins" and "add dates", someone calling for an artist's new single a month before it's released can be flagged by some PDs as an annoying overinvested fan. If too many people call in advance, it's an even bigger red flag. Remember, radio is more interested in pleasing their advertisers and their regular local listeners (who patronize the advertisers) than in pleasing any one fan group...<BR/><BR/>However, there may be a few Bucky-friendly stations that jump the gun and play the song early--if you turn on the radio and "It's Good to Be Us" is flowing from your speakers, it's perfectly cool to call up and tell them you loved hearing it on the radio and that you hope they'll be playing it more often. And it's safe to assume we'll be back doing the songfights and challenges and such, as well--September will be busy!<BR/><BR/>But for now, even though we Bucky Covington fans are <B>very</B> familiar with "A Different World", there are still some places where it's only been on the playlist a few weeks--and in those areas, they're still in the process of falling in love with the song, with Bucky, or both. Why should we deny them that fun? ;)<BR/><BR/>Anyway, I'll try to find out more about "follow-up single etiquette" and share the news in a new post soon.<BR/><BR/>Thanks for listening to me ramble, y'all! I <B>love</B> hearing Bucky Covington on the radio, and any information I can find that we can use to help him stay on the radio for decades to come is worth digging for. Feel free to add, subtract, comment, tell me I need an editor, whatever...we're all in the same "loving Bucky on the radio" boat, I know, and every bit of knowledge helps.
