"This is our sixth year to release an announcement video, and every year I am amazed by the creativity—and fun!—that over 60 performers put into making this video," commented Dirty Bob. "From Casey Calvert humping an unresponsive human skeleton, to Ivan getting an XRCO tattoo, and everything in-between, makes this long-awaited release simply astounding. They were given loose guidelines, some took it to the extreme, and all obviously had a blast making this a really creative way to announce the current XRCO nominees in all of the categories—and more! I can't help but be extremely thankful and proud of their great response to making their individual video clips."
