Tour Updates, I'll Walk Starts to Climb


If you have not had a chance to do so in the past week or so, please check Bucky's tour page either at his official website or on his myspace (links to the right for both). Lots of dates have been added, and the outlook is good for most everyone! I personally have been inking in my upcoming dates with Bucky and urge everyone to do the same. Also if you have the opportunity - find a friend who is NOT a Bucky fan and bring them to a show with you! I have done that with 2 people (one vehemently dislikes the country genre) and have turned 2 fans so far with more hopefuls on the horizon. Basically if you can't sell it verbally - take them to a show and let Bucky do what he does best - sell himself. I have yet to see someone leaving a Bucky show with slumped shoulders and mumbling "well, that sucked...". It just doesn't happen. He has enough energy for the entire audience and emits it throughout the entire "experience" (doesn't that sound so much better than calling it a show?) So if you have a chance, bring someone along, let Bucky show them his stuff. I assure you those people will leave just as enthused as you and will continue to spread the word that everyone simply must see a Bucky show! (disclaimer: Bucky "experiences" are known to be highly addictive, blog author not responsible for delinquency, work missed, money spent or in any other way. One who seeks a Bucky "experience" assumes full responsibility and complete liability for oneself.)

Meanwhile over on the Mediabase charts, It's Good To Be Us is slowly making it's way backwards from it's top spot of #9 (hooray for breaking the top 10!) and I'll Walk is starting a slow crawl up the charts. It has not been officially added to stations as of yet, but they seem to be testing the waters and the results are very good! It now has a shiny new bullet and is up to #97 on the Top 500 chart and #83 weighted! To compare - last week the song was not even on the weighted list, and was #247 on the Top 500. This is shaping up just the way we hoped it would. It is moving up the charts, and it sounds like both the DJ's and the listening audience are liking it. Way to go Bucky on your 3rd single, and soon to be 3rd hit! And way to go fans for helping make it happen, as they would say down south - y'all are great!
