-- Stoney Richards, WDSY/Pittsburgh

Bucky’s has a surprise guest at his show in Jersey last night
Last night, March 11, 2010 at his show in New Jersey, Bucky was all amped up to play the WKMK Thunder 98.5 live show at the Shark Finn Inn in Forked River, New Jersey. Bucky made it through about 30 minutes of his show when he had a special guest arrive. The local Police. Apparently the standing room only crowd was more than the Fire Marshall would allow, not to mention the several hundred fans waiting outside trying to get in. Bucky and the band had to take a break until the Inn was able to remove enough fans to meet the capacity requirement.
“I have to admit I wasn’t sure what the police were coming after us for” laughed Bucky. “But it was great, it felt like Home!”
With the Fire Marshall now happy, Bucky returned to the stage and finished off a rocking show for the energized crowd, albeit not quite as large. For those of you that got left out, not to worry, Bucky will be back in Mt. Laurel, New Jersey on April 10th.
