Saturday, June 12th, 2004 X'ESS Entertainment & Bigwig Nightclub present: Hot & Spicy @ Bigwig featuring: Heather Doble Doble's hypnotic mixes blend elements of deep soulful melodies and tracky Chicago beats. The resulting sound is one that seethes with a hard-edged, beating freneticsm but maintains just the right level of funkiness. Over the course of the last eight years, Heather and her andrenalin-laden grooves have graced numerous clubs throughout the United States, from her home in Chicago to Milwaukee, Seattle, San Diego, and Houston. Since May 2002, she has held a weekly Thursday-night residency at Chicago's Berlin, and also presently enjoys a rotating series of residencies at both Three and Flybar in Milwaukee. Whether it's largely her night or one of the many guest-spots that have turned up over time, one thing does remain consistent: Heather packs the floor. Tireless in her efforts to move things forward and never satisfied with even the slightest degree of stagnation, Heather currently finds her focus in the exciting world of production. Since establishing official affiliations with both Olive Records and Soul Fuel Recordings, and also embarking on a series of collaborations with partner Jonn Hawley as the Sound Navigators, her efforts have gained notoriety from a myriad of well-known individuals in the dance music industry in both Chicago and around the world.

We had passed our event on to Crobar so if you want to see Armand Van Helden, it will be on the 26th of June at Crobar. We didn't feel it was right for Nerve Lounge. To tell you the truth, I don't know if Nerve Lounge wants us back but for all of you guys who supported us, THANK YOU. I would love to come back and rock Nerve Lounge or Miami again so if anyone is interested, email me jon@xessentertainment.com Jon

First of all, i would like to say thank you to all that attened the event. We had a great time and it's good to see that you all did as well. I would also like to thank all of you for your constructive criticism. Any feedback is good feedback in my eyes. There is always something that can be done better for future events. As far as the door goes. My sincere apologies to the people that were not treated properly. There was a lot of hard work that was put into this event by tina (the X'ESS girl at the door). I think all the stress of making the night a success really got to her. But, yes, it was wrong of her to let it out on important people like all of you. So, once again, my deepest apologies to all of you that were offended. I will make sure this will never happen again as I do want all of you to keep on coming out to our events. I thank you for your continued support and look forward in seeing all of you in June! sincerely Ashish Shah President / CEO X'ESS Entertainment, Inc.
