You gotta realize Artimus shoes are medical devices allowing him to walk normally and play drums normally. Artimus' right leg is about 1 inch shorter than the other due to the motorcycle accident he was involved in that prevented him from being in the RCB. To this day he is in a lot of pain around the clock and even more pain while playing drums and after playing drums. He now has a steel pin in that leg about the size of a drum stick from ankle to knee.
If he re-breaks that leg again, he told me they will have to amputate it at the knee.
His shoes are specially made to adjust the length difference of his legs for normal walking and playing of drums. One shoe has an elevation device to compensate for that difference and you can't see it from the outside of the shoes. And this is why you see him wearing the same shoes all the time is because he cannot just throw on any old pair and go like the rest of us can.
And if you pay close attention to any Artimus photos you can usually see him putting his weight on the good leg and keeping the weight off the injured painful leg. It has become automatic for him to behave this way.

Man I broke my leg and ankle back in 1986, right leg is shorter than the left my ankle is pinned together and I walk on the side of my foot. I need the support of laced up tight work boots to walk straight. If I wear sneakers or any other shoe without HIGH ANKLES I limp and I am always in pain. I have a bad knee on my bad leg. THANK YOU Dr. Feel Good for keeping me happy happy happy and somewhat out of pain.

Fantastic photos!
These images of hell house added to the others out there are good enough to triangulate the precise location and angle of the cabin. New technology can pull data out of images and cross reference it to other data and some how come up with a result showing precise location.
All they need is a few of those trees in the images and if they are still around today which some should if that land is still an empty lot. Trees can live over 100 years or more. we are talking less than 50 years in human terms. So some of the trees in the cabin images should still be there today. Not all, but maybe a couple. Maybe enough to utilize them.
We know the approximate location of the cabin but its angle is now lost. All concrete slab portions are now gone. I used to find pipe and in place concrete remains of the slab which showed location and angle of cabin, but its all gone now.
Triangulation from image data combined with GPS and other data like satellite images might give us a solid result so for historical purposes modern humans can know precisely where and how it was angled and maybe the land can be marked to show this? Otherwise we show up to an empty lot with nothing to see but a rotting dock and no way to know the cabin location.

Is this for real? I saw this on Pinterest. They said this was Artimus during the 1987 Tribute Tour.

yes he did the peter pan thing. Must of borrowed it from Donnie
And this was only done in the very early days of Tribute Tour in 1987. Look how short Artimus hair is. In August of 1987 his hair was cut short. Here is an image I snapped of Artimus when he first showed back up in Jacksonville just before tribute tour. I think he was fresh in from israel here. This is August 1987 in Jax Beach Florida with bands Vision and JVZ band.
So the image of Artimus flying around the stage above would have been within weeks and months after August 1987 to date it to say around Oct. to Dec. 1987 because his hair is just getting long enough to have some weight to it to do as shown in image. Just a few weeks of hair growth difference.

Artimus walks his daughter down the aisle this past weekend at her wedding. This is one of the girls he was accused of molesting.
