I grew up in Spartanburg, but spent many Monday nights in Greenville at the Memorial Auditorium watching wrestling. Also saw a lot of concerts there back in the 70s and 80s. I moved out of state in 89 and haven't been back since. I wish someone would make a video like this of Sptbg.

Love and miss you Bobby!

I have never heard the song but love it. Thank you and good luck. Ben from colo spgs

I moved here in '89 and never got a chance to experience Textile Hall. It was torn down in 1992.

Great set of pictures and good choice of music.

Burger Chef - Hamburgers - 5 cents, Cheeseburgers - 10 cents The only fast food place we could afford to eat at, about two or three times a year. We were relatively poor even though we didn't realize it at the time. One pair of shoes and one pair of pants were what we got each year....if needed. My Mom would turn us out in the Summer wearing nothing but our whitey tighties. We would come home and they would be coated in red mud.

Who could forget Kash and Karry and those creaky wooden floors? LOL I used to brag about the SCN building being a skyscraper. I wasn't a city boy though. I lived in a rural area of Greenville county. We only went to the city a few times a year. I saved up my money so that when I did go, I could get a shoe shine on Main Street. I went to school with Lynn Irby and a few others I can no longer remember. Lynn would've graduated around 1976. I remember her as a sweet and intelligent girl.

🤜🏽💜🤛🏽

I was born there in 51 but I'm very far away now. Those years, the ones your photos depict, they were the good ones. Thanks for sharing...

Traumatic-nearly, as I was walking Main Street Greenville yesterday, and. “ didn’t know where I was”!

Thanks for posting this video again. I remember watching it a few years back. I remember everything on this video. Such fond memories.

Hello brother new sub here from Laurens. Just ran across your channel feel free to check mine out. God Bless You

I remember Kash and Karry. You could get a who buggy full of groceries for $5. Also, remember Monty Dupuy and Mr. Doohickey.

To the people commenting, the Herbert Richardson in this video is not the one who was executed. Do a Google Images search on "Herbert Lee Richardson" and you'll see that the man who was executed looks WAY different from the man here (and was way younger, too). Michael, I'm sorry for the loss of your friend. :( I'm also sorry for the loss of Herbert Lee Richardson. Just heartbreaking. I'm glad your friend and Herbert are in a better place now <3

Hi ​Michael​, may I use this clip SEPT 24 2020 ACCIDENT ON ROBERT P JEANES RD EASLEY SC in my compilation of dashcam clips?with credit (name on screen).Any update,comment?

Ah the Windstream Building. That iconic monolith that everyone loves to hate.

Well done. I was born in 1949 and remember so many of those landmarks.

I use to live in Greenville, SC along time ago...Thanks for the memories!

he in better place than world of man ever was or ever will be rip herb

I watched this movie today (just mercy)and I got traumatized from the electric chair scene and it's stuck in my head

Justice could've been achieved :( im really sorry for your loss. hes in a better place now tho :(

:( I saw just mercy today and I’m heartbroken

Awesome. Just like I remember.

It would be awesome to go back to my youth in Greenville SC, so innocent and pure,

I remember Greenville in the late 60s as a kid. Much simpler then, but I still like Greenville. I'm from Pendleton.

Beautiful stuff Michael! Hope you're living "large".

What a great tribute to my hometown. #yeahthatgreenville

Attended Greenville Senior in the late '60s - Loved Greenville in those days - It was a different time - Wished I could go back !
