I’ve heard Artimus talk of living in Spartanburg and i know the music scene was pretty good there in the 70s so, I wondered if anybody knew if and where he may have played? I know he had ties to Charlie Daniels and the MTB but im curious about the bands/clubs he may have played. I’ve not ever known about his prior career and having known several players from there, I’ve never heard anybody talk of playing with or seeing him. This occurred to me as I was thinking about him doing a book and we know a lot about Steve’s prior LS music.
Admins, I made this thread once and something happened, the site reloaded, and it was all gone.

Mike Sparks (Allen's guitar tech in RCB) told me he and Artimus served in the Marines together from 68-72 and they had a band they played in on the side in Camp Lejeune area of North Carolina. Played a lot of bar venues and on base too.

I went and drove by the place he was living when they played Greenville and flew out of there. Very nice, homey little house.
