Dan Davis writes on www.genesisonline.com: I am in beautiful and humid Tampa, Florida for another exciting year of the NightMoves Adult Entertainment Awards and Caravan of the Stars.

This is my fifth year here, and for those who don’t know about this show which is in its 16th year of existence, let me fill you in. NightMoves Magazine is a regional publication that features the Tampa Bay area’s top gentlemen’s clubs, among other stuff. Every year at this time, they fly in some of the top names in adult — usually around 20 or so girls and guys — for their weekend of events. This includes appearances at some of the top clubs in the area each night and culminates in their awards show on Sunday night. It’s not a huge convention or even giant awards show, but Paul and Tracy Allen and the NightMoves staff do a great job in bringing a taste of adult to Florida’s Gulf Coast.

It’s a great opportunity for me to meet with some of the top stars and companies in adult without the crazed frenzy that is Vegas or L.A. We’ve made some great friends down here over the years who have contributed to the magazine, gotten some great interviews and sealed some deals. But you don’t care about that. What you care about is what the hell goes on down here, so here we go…

After the usual delay out of Newark airport, I finally arrived around 7pm last night and as I was walking to get my bags in Tampa, I ran into a group of friends who had just landed from L.A. It was great to see Lexi Lamour, Ethan Cage, Sunny Lane, Brooke Haven, Eli Cross, Kylie Ireland, Marcus London, Devon Lee, Derrick Pierce and Wicked contract star Kaylani Lei. Once at the hotel I also met up with GenesisOnline star blogger, the gorgeous Gianna Lynn, who had just gotten back from an appearance on “Bubba the Love Sponge.”

In the hotel’s meeting room, I got to see some other familiar faces and friends including Lisa Sparxxx, Jeff Sparxxx, Roxy DeVille, Morgan Dayne, Christy Wild and some others, but a great face to see was former Adam & Eve contract star, Austyn Moore, who informed me she’s back in adult and launching her own prodcution company. Austyn’s company will focus a ton on the Internet and we have already made plans for the blonde babe to shoot back in L.A. for GENESIS.

One of the faces missing from here who I knew was supposed to arrive yesterday was the one and only Tommy Gunn. When I ran into the group at the airport, they were waiting for Tommy to find them and the drivers.

When they couldn’t find each other in what is a relatively small airport, the NightMoves staff started wondering why. The answer was simple. T-Gunn wasn’t in Tampa. He accidently arrived in Orlando, which thank god is only about an hour away. But how, you ask? It seems Tommy was supposed to change planes in New Mexico, but for one reason or another, and we’ll call it flight attendent error, Tommy didn’t, thus arriving in the Land of the Mouse. Of course everyone found this pretty humorous at first except for Tommy who decided to rent a car and take the drive over to Tampa. He finally arrived for the evening’s festivities and pretty much heard shit all night from everyone. He’s a great sport about it, and hopefully (for his sake and the sake of others before he snaps) it dies down in 5 or 10 years.

The opening night’s festivities featured all of us boarding a party bus and heading out to a release party for the Wicked Pictures release party for The Wicked at the Emperors Club here in Tampa. Stars of the movie including Kaylani, Pierce and Roxy signed autographs for fans and the rest of the girls were introduced to the club on the main stage.

We had a few drinks, then boarded the bus back for our usual nightcap poolside until about three in the morning. It was good catching up on what’s going on with everyone and we’re all looking forward to the rest of the contingent arriving today, including Trina Michaels, Moxxie Maddron, Ron Jeremy, Sean Michaels, Delilah Strong, Paola Rey, Zoe Britton, Alexa Jordan, Nikki Rhodes, Tony Batman, Veronica Rayne, Bree Olson and more.

Look for more updates from the weekend’s festivities. I’m sure we’ll get some news, stories, and general bullshit. I know I’ll have an update on Stormy Daniels’ new Wicked Pictures sex comedy, Whack Job, which I might have a bit part in, so look here throughout.
