I am sure Artimus will not hold back in a book, but is it the same boring over dramatic bull shit he has cried the past 42 years. I do not want to read the shit that happened post crash just his years with R V Z 74-77

It's funny you mention Bowmen's book. I bought that book(hard cover with the bookmark) for cheap on a thift store web site a few months ago. I haven't read it yet, due to busy schedule/life. I can't wait to read it now that things are slowing down for me. I agree with you on all accounts. I need to just shut my mouth and mind my own business. But my gosh. The curiously is killing me.

I suspect Arti will have a revenge twist to his story. Arti can go off the rail with subject matter. He over kills a good story.

Sir, MD. Please refer to Garys Skinner Band as The Traveling Tribute Band or lesser of Queens English. LOL

I wonder why the title change??? For years, decades even, Artimus has steadfastly said the title of his book was to be "The Best Seat In The House" meaning that for him as the band's drummer he always had the best seat in the house behind those drums playing for the band and he had the best view of the entire stage. So I have to wonder if this is the book Artimus always wanted to put out, or if it is just a book he discussed things with the writer Dean Goodman to be his book? During the time I knew Artimus he had already written or had written with his wife Kerri a great deal. Is all of that included in this book? Is this the long awaited Artimus Pyle tell all??? I have to wonder a bit right now until I actually read it. This also now explains why Dean Goodman would not return any emails requesting information months ago... now I know why... i Figure the title change has to do with the movie. But who knows

To correct my other post...NO BAND MEMBERS CAN WRITE A BOOK...others can like Eckerman, Odom, etc. etc. Which really doesn't make any sense. When Cagey quotes the "There's things going on you don't know" line...well, he is correct. This book has quite a few stories that would piss people off. I'm only guessing but I wouldn't be surprised if Judy and Gary somehow got tipped off by an insider and gave them a heads up on what stories were in this book. I would love to see Craig Reed write a book but it would take about 60 years to proof read it and get it to publisher. this is something I would buy of Craig on eBay

It's officially tabled. Arti's book will never see the light of day and to be honest the people involved worked their asses off on it. There are some stories in it about Billy, Allen that would raise some eyebrows. So if anyone...a roadie, cameraman, drum tech ever wanted to write a book that was on that plane...they can't? Judy and Gary are really keeping this stuff close to themselves and to be honest, when Gary and Judy are gone, their children will do the same. Just out of curiosity, I searched the title. Amazon just lists it as "unavailable", but Books-A-Million's Page says it can be pre-ordered for $29.99, and that it "will ship" on October 15,2019. I woulld plunk down the $ to preorder just to see what happens, but I don't know whether or not I will still be in my current town at that time (retirement looming).

Honestly, at this point, I just don't see it coming out. There have been so many delays and changes in availability dates, and knowing the background story between Arti and the Gary-Judy camp, it just doesn't look like this book will ever get to the fans. Why don't they let Arti's book come out, and then they can put out one of their own. Between the two of them, I'm sure they can afford to get a top-notch ghost writer to write it for them.

Certain people probably do not look good in Artimus' book. There must be things in the book Judy and Gary do not want fans to know. We don't know hear anything about Ed's book. Perhaps it also will never be released. As for Judy and Gary writing a book, if they truly wanted to they would have written a book. They both are into making money. Both Gary and Judy are aware of the Skynyrd books available and how they well they sell. There are certain things they don't want to address. If they write a book then they have to include the plane crash. That is a topic they don't want to discuss if they don't have to. There is other things I bet they want to stay buried.

Is it actually Gary doing all this or is it more Dale? Gary’s always struck me as someone who doesn’t really give two shits and just lets other people handle everything. Yeah, he can play guitar and/or write a tune, but there’s other people to take care of all the other shit.
