I'd say you had a record with a null value for the namefirst field.
The join method don't like that.

Wow, you're right! I tried this:

if x[0] and not x[0] == 'NULL':

and sure enough it works after that. (Not sure if that's the best way to test, though. Just testing for NULL still produced the error, so I guessed that some namefirst fields were actually blank.)
