My name is Dave Strickler and I record live blues and roots band videos in Dolby stereo in and around Maryland to share with members of the Baltimore Blues Society to help them make decisions on which bands to see. I also do the Live Music Listings for their website to tell everyone where to go to see these great bands each week under the handle Crawling Kingsnake in the Maryland, DC, Virginia, Delaware and Pennsylvania areas. If a band or song copyright holder wants a video removed please email me, identify yourself and the video and I'll be glad to remove it for you at dave.strickler@comca
