If you have NOT watched “The Wire”, I suggest that you do. At lease season 1. Quite an eye opener.

I watched the first season and it was great, and yes Baltimore is a seedy place just from what I saw on that show.

The subsequent seasons were not as good as that first one.

My favorite song by The Blind Boys From Alabama, “Way Down in the Hole”.

I worked awhile down off 18th Street at an envelope company back around 2006. Pretty interesting neighborhood to say the least, and that wasn't even in the heart and soul of the mess.

The Corner was much better.

I watched Hairspray. Baltimore is a great city.

I absolutely LOVED The Wire, I watched it years ago, then recently it has been offered free of charge on Amazon Prime and I watched the whole series again, it shows the absolute truth of the shit pit Baltimore is AND it was filmed MANY years ago so I can’t even imagine what the hell it is like now,I shutter to think of it!!!
