Myles Shaffer Myles' Weekend Adventures: XRCO Awards

Bonjour mon amis! Comment ca va? Myles Shaffer here. This article will obviously be about an annual adult film industry awards show, so please read on. But first, allow me to remind everybody that it is just three more months from today until the start of the Exotic Dancer Gentlemen's Club Owners Expo at the Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada!

Because of the fact that the event is returning to Las Vegas after being held in New Orleans for the last two years, and that it will be the event's twenty-fifth anniversary, it is certain to be the greatest Expo yet. So, if anybody in the industry that is reading this has not yet made arrangements to attend, they should certainly get busy and do so!

Thursday evening, April 27, I drove up to the Ohm Nightclub, in Hollywood, to cover the 2017 XRCO Awards show.
