When someone finds out what my profession is, one of the first questions they ask is who is/was your favourite artist to work with. This is usually followed by asking who was the most difficult. A couple of names always come to mind.

I have many X’s in my life; ex-jobs, ex-clients, ex-wife, ex-etera.
There are not a lot of X bands on my iTunes.
Of course X is there, as are XTC, The XX, Xavier Cugat (yes, really), X-Ray Spex, “Bobcast” house band Xprime and a couple of others I don’t even recognize (via label samplers).
Being a good publicist I can spin an X into anything I want. Here we go.

I never get sick. That being said I am sitting here sucking back chicken noodle soup and trying to fight off a flu which is usually far too nervous to invade my body. I shouldn’t have gone out on Monday as it started to set in but I had to drop by the NXNE Christmas party, stop by The Rivoli to wish my friend Todd Pinnell the best of luck of his new adventures as he said goodbye to his beloved club, pop into The Horseshoe to check out Sid Johnson and then head to the Bovine for their annual X-Mess Party.
