Artimus Pyle - Lynyrd Skynyrd

From sold out stadiums to your local hole in the wall dive bar, it's rare to go out and see a band without hearing the all too familiar request of "play some Skynyrd!" We've all heard it before. Sometimes it comes from the back the room or the friend at your side…sometimes it's you! Most people just laugh about it as the band plays on, but what was it really like to be associated with these southern rock icons who've made a permanent mark on American culture and music as a whole? I had the chance to sit down with only one of two people left in the entire world who can still answer that question. A Rock N' Roll Hall of Fame drummer and true survivor, Artimus Pyle gives his insight and opinion on what has become of his life and the state of southern rock today.

Another great interview...thanks Damian!!

seminole Says How cool was that!

Submitted On: Tuesday, Dec 22, 2009 - 8:40 PM

Artimus was great, the band was great and all the birds that came from nowhere when he played "Freebird"... WOW! Truely a day to remember. Artimus has been through so much and yet still gives eveything he's got when he performs. A true legendary Rock-n-Roll Hall of Fame artist and he proves it for every show with his actions before, after and during his shows. The fans love him and he loves the fans, I'm not sure who appreciates each other more but there was a lot of love and respect out there that day.

Thank you Artimus for a great day to remember!
