Jim Crockett, the visionary creator of the modern “guitar magazine,” passed away on December 16.

So the back story on this conversation is that I did the interview for The Princess Anne Independent News in conjunction with the performance that X had scheduled for Elevation 27 in Virginia Beach. They were supposed to play there in late June, but due to one of the members needing unexpected surgery (from which he has since recovered, thankfully), they were forced to cancel their date. Unfortunately, when the band rolled out the rescheduled dates, there wasn’t one for Virginia Beach.
