Tonight is the big night in Los Angeles, as the XBIZ Adult Awards ceremony takes place. This is leg number two of the four big adult awards ceremonies and very much anticipated by the industry. The NightMoves awards kicked it off in October, tonight XBIZ, next week AVN and then in April it winds up with the XRCO awards.

2015 was a fantastic year with some of the best productions, performances and quality coming from everyone. It made it a great year for fans that got to see some fabulous films in every possible genre that provided plenty of entertainment and enjoyment. It also made it very difficult for those of us who have voting privileges for these various awards to select the nominees.

I know as a reviewer/critic, the past year was something very special for me with all the top flight releases, the immergence of new stars, the continued influx of new companies coming on board and the bar continually be raised to a higher level by directors, performers and companies.

With all that said, I want to personally thank each and everyone of the nominees for a great year in 2015. Your nominations are all very well deserved and you should all be very proud of your accomplishments. Enjoy the festivities and speaking for all of us at AAN and NightMoves Magazine, I sincerely wish you all good luck at the XBIZ awards tonight.
