@@hgholson6495 I will be looking for them to come anywhere close to Baton Rouge. He probably hates this place, but I would drive to Biloxi for that opportunity. Thanks.
Artemis played at a biker bar that I used to work at years ago. Drove himself to the show. I saw his USMC EGA on his truck and since I'm a Army veteran myself I asked him about his service instead of Skynrd. I didn't even know he served. Guys from that era, including my dad didn't talk about it. We hit it off right away. We traded war stories and took pics. Buddy Black opened for him. Cool guys. Good show and a fun night. As a Gen Xer from Michigan raised on classic rock who now lives in the South, it was like meeting Southern royalty. I got to have a beer with the guy whose music I drank many beers too. That's pretty cool.
Artimus Pyle was a member of a Top Group in 1977, he survived a horrendous plane crash, climbing out of wreckage to walk in hopes of finding assistance. He came upon a farm, with farmer outside. He called for help, as he was in bad shape and looking bloodied, with long hair, farmer ending up shooting Artimus, in fear Artimus was a bad person. He and other members of original band all seemed to have unharmed lives ending up in their deaths. So sad. (If) he was/was not involved in an impropriety he paid his dues to society. Thank-you Artimus, and original Lynyrd Skynyrd Band mates your music was special in my life.
@@mikesundquist2960 Artimus was never shot. The farmer said he fired a warning shot up in the air. There is no medical record of him sustaining any gunshot wound.
It's cool on the lead using the SG , which we know Gary's opening slide, And here playing the opening slide Les Paul, Gary's choice in his career. Artimus u are a strong, simple man with a gold heart.
What I loved about Artemus's drumming is the physicality of it. Everything was strong every hit was dynamic and not trashy just great really fast hard strokes in perfect time. As a drummer I really liked that. Right on the money. Extremely dynamic drummer just what the band needed at the time and it basically launched them. They were a different band after he came on board glad to see he's till rocking strong and good to see Scott Raines up there to he is a fantastic player I love his channel.
Thank you Artimus and your bandmates for keeping the live sound of Lyrnryd Skynrd in our lives. As a teenager I purchased all of their albums and saw them perform live at a Day on the Green at the Oakland Coliseum. They prided themselves on perfection in their live shows, as APB does too.
Absolutely great job on the guitars, just as solid as the originals. The whole band did as excellent as could be, but as Artemis said it best, there will never be another Ronnie Van Zant. That is a fact, and no matter how good the musicians or the singer is, Ronnie simply cannot be replaced. RIP Ronnie, we love you forever. And thanks to you Artemis, Ronnie's most courageous man; you took care of Ronnie, and you saved their lives by your own will to survive and your perseverance to get help in spite of being shot during your effort. You saved their hides, and in return was disrespected. We know who was truthful and who was phony. Ronnie would have been proud of you man. Good work, Artemis! 🎉❤
I always enjoyed the band. I can’t tell you how many steps I danced to Sweet Home Alabama!! Still have to move to it even when I’m driving. Guess people think I’m nuts. Buts it’s oK!!!
I met Artimus years ago at a Skynyrd festival. He signed my Skynyrd pic, a frynd had given me. He talked on and on about how Ronnie was Lynyrd Skynyrd. Great memory
I met Artemis Pyle several years ago while we were both pumping gas a NY State Thruway rest stop. He was towing an equipment trailer with his name on it. We chatted for a few minutes and he seemed like a cool dude.
Artamus I met you in a wharehose my friends were playing when skynard was playing a concert in miamiyou guys came to see the 2 guitar playres knew you from jacksonville you are a rockstar and a hero for your acitons post crash. THANK YOU..
Wow! This is awesome! What a tribute to Gary. Hope to see APB soon. Scott Raines crushed it! So did the other guitarist, however, I don't know his name.
Also if ya dig and enjoyed this video and love many Lynard Skynard songs😀 you may also enjoy the song " Most of All " By Glenn Kaiser and Where Roses Grow Live by Rez Band Awesome songs check them out. Also I remember hearing the song by Led Zepp " In My Time of Dyin " during my drug years and made me think about death and Jesus. Then a hippy friend that dug Jesus told me more of Jesus love and forgiveness and how I could also know Jesus love. So in 1981 I cried out to Jesus and wow man He came into my life and I had and have so much joy and peace and now know that through Jesus when I die I will be with Him in Heaven. Hey Jesus loves each of you also and yall can know Him if you are at all open. Just cry out to Him and a good question to ask yourself if you were to die today would you go to heaven ? And if yes why ? To find out more please read the Gospel of John in the Bible or check out the movie on RUclips. 😀
Hey you guys just wanted to say thanks. And I'm Lynyrd skynyrd #1 fan Kevin Eugene Geiger of North Jacksonville and I raised the confederate flag over Jacksonville 2013 Rockville and I got kicked out and a young lady came out and told them to let me stay an the crowd pulled me up over back over the walls in to the concert and then the crowd was hi 5in me. I have 2 of those shirts like Bob Barnes wears you know that confederate flag he's got?!!.
NO PRODUCTION - NO GIANT EGO VIDEO SCREENS - JUST THE TRUTH IN THE MUSIC - PLAYED BETTER THAN THE POSEURS OUT THERE RIPPING PEOPLE OFF FOR THOUSAND$- Plus, that ending guitar solo makes little Rickey sound like a pre-schooler! Excellent job, men!
Being a drummer i always Loved Artimus. Learned alot of my stuff from him, and Ronnie Van Zant and Lynyrd Skynyrd will always be that band. The one better than the rest Doesnt negate the fact that Artimus is a convicted sex offender who go a slap on the wrist for sexually assaulting 2 sisters ages 4 and 8. He also got arrested again in mis 2000s for not registering as a sex offender in North Carolina. While i appreciate what he did for Skynyrds sound, im also appalled and sickened by his actions, and could never support him or his band. Its a shame too.
Dude! What’s wrong with you? The Man is 75 Years Old. I’m 59 and with arthritis in both shoulders it hurts sleeping sometimes. I can’t believe what He can still do! He’s a Legend!
@socalfun64 I'm 60, I'm not near the guitar player I once was. I stand by my statement. He was an amazing musician, and has certainly forgotten more than most know, but my emotional attachment to the matter doesn't change facts........"he not the drummer he once was"!
Artimus is awesome. Love the respect he shows Ronnie and Gary. Thank you for keeping the southern/ soul rock alive, brother.
They put on a great show. If you get a chance to see them don’t pass it up.

I love your comment because it touches the soul of the South but also the USA!
We need more people like you and him so we can livee freely and keep on rockin.❤😢.
A beer with a child predator yea that’s real cool bud

Thank you, Mr. Artimus, Pyle. I salute you! God bless you. If you keep playing, I’ll keep listening :-) You’re extraordinarily remarkable.

Grew up with this band and will never forget every note…..deeply missed!!! Love me some Artimus to carry the legacy.

Proud to say I was at Soldier Field in 1977, watching Skynyrd perform right before the headliner, Ted Nugent. There was a few other bands there too.
I saw them a couple of moths ago and they are really good! They never took a break and kept on playing!
Terrific rendition. Could tell the boys were having fun!
great job kudos to the entire band and that bass guitar looks terrific loved it
Hope you get a chance to see them
Great guys too !
Outfuckingstanding !! SFMF'S !!
One of the greatest songs of all time.

Peace to the world Amen.
That sounded better than the tribute band that’s out touring.
Most definitely!!
Most DEFINATELY NOT!!
Including Skynyrd
That base is cool as grits, the band nailed it.
Florida!.

Plus, that ending guitar solo makes little Rickey sound like a pre-schooler!
Excellent job, men!
Curious as to why he never joined w Jonny Van Zant in. the later yrs
Paying tribute to Gary and I’m doubting that he and Artimus were even on speaking terms!!!
You are wrong----- They made up before Gary passed.....
Gary Rossington despised Artimus Pyle!
where's the amps?
The amps / speakers are right in Front of me at 1:39 you can see red tape x that’s the top of the amp. Hope that answers your question
old men should go fishing
that guy is no guitar player he is not playing the lead right he is missing a few notes and the chords are off.

Ok, I read an article on RUclips that mentioned he had been. Appreciate setting me straight.
...grandiiii....👏👏👏👍
Wow bring back so many memories for this oldie! Great job! 😍
Pyle is not near the drummer he once was.
