I'm here! Oklahoma! I'm looking for some work. Hit me up if you need, guitar, vocals, BGVs, bass, or pedal steel. Ardmore is my location, so I could do anything from OKC to Dallas, or east & west of there...and beyond!

Hey Alan, glad to hear your are moving back to Oklahoma. You might even run into Smiley. Jerry Duncan from Ada usually tries to use a steel. I believe Cliff Trent tries to cover that spot when he can. Good luck.

I will be attending a jam session there on the 18th. I might see Jerry and Smiley. Used to play guitar for Jerry a lot. Looking forward to getting home and reconnecting with all the great pickers in that area.

Welcome back to OK Alan. I will keep my ears open for some gigs for you.

Thanks, David!

Hey Alan!! Welcome to the Ardmore area. I live between Davis and dougherty in the mountains. Hope we can get together soon!!!!

Alan Rudd · Post by **Alan Rudd** » 11 Mar 2013 12:02 pm

Hey, Cliff, that would be great. I will be residing at the Ardmore Lake Club, so Davis is pretty close for me. I look forward to meeting you!

Alan, Moving to Ardmore OK. maybe be a great change in your life. I hope you find the right job and (Gig) you are looking for. I sure did enjoy the band we had together here. I hope the lessons I taught you on steel guitar will help you down the road. They were the same lessons that were taught to me long ago. I truly hope for the best, for you and your family. If you ever need me, you have my phone number. You take care!

Adios for now.
Ronnie

Yep! Thanks, Ron! I've had a great time learning this instrument, I really love it. I have an Emmons D10 SKH now. I'm glad we got to work together. Looks like I will get some gigging in there in Oklahoma, too, much more than I ever did here. Things seem to have picked up a lot back there since I left.

Welcome back Alan. There is no doubt that you will get plenty of work around here. You are a great singer and musician.

Your classroom kids back at the school where you taught are going to miss you as their mentor and teacher. You taught school for a long time. Now it's time to enjoy living on the lake and playing music. I sure hope we can get together and do some playing like we did back in the 80's around Ardmore and Ada.

Welcome back home.

If anyone needs a band member that can sing, write songs, play guitar, bass and steel guitar, record or mix or set sound, give Alan a call.

Thanks, Mark. Looking forward to it. No doubt, we will be making music soon. I'll be home in April. I have connected with a lot of the guys I played music with back in Ada so many years ago, so we're gonna have a blast! See ya in a couple of weeks!

Wayne Morton · Post by **Wayne Morton** » 19 Mar 2013 3:17 am

Alan I haven't seen you in forever, so I sure am looking forward to the 18th. See ya then.

Alan Rudd · Post by **Alan Rudd** » 19 Mar 2013 4:15 am

Really looking forward to seeing you again, too, Wayne. I can't wait!

Alan Rudd · Post by **Alan Rudd** » 7 May 2013 7:07 pm

Okay, guys! I'm here! Been here for about 5 weeks or so, so I'm looking for all those gigs that are available here. Cliff, give me a shout at your convenience. Would love to run up there and see ya. I just live off Exit 33 here in Ardmore, not far from your area. Wayne let me know when you might be available for some lessons...

Wayne Morton · Post by **Wayne Morton** » 8 May 2013 3:42 am

Alan, just give me a call 580-371-3512. I'm retarded now, so I have some free time.

Cliff Trent · Post by **Cliff Trent** » 14 May 2013 4:32 am

Hey Alan,
I'm about to get "retarded" like Wayne, myself. My number is 580-618-2611. Holler at me and teach me something!!!!

I know it's a bit of ways away, but every 3rd saturday of the month there's about 8+ steelers that get together for a full band jam in Del City. One of my bands is based out of Ardmore too. We have a low key house gig at the Red Dirt Brew House. If you want, I'll let you know next time we're playing and maybe we can meet up.

Alan Rudd · Post by **Alan Rudd** » 23 Jul 2013 5:52 am

That would be great, John. Let me know when you guys play the Red Dirt. I've been down there a couple of times, thinking about trying to book something there solo...thanks. My phone # is 615-579-5527.

Alan Rudd · Post by **Alan Rudd** » 4 Jul 2014 5:10 am

Think I'm gonna go ahead and start my own band here. I miss the crew I had in TN...all great friends as well as players. Can't beat that!
So, I'm gonna put together another group of friends here who are also good players.

Alan Rudd · Post by **Alan Rudd** » 18 Mar 2015 5:38 am

Still available...

Alan Rudd · Post by **Alan Rudd** » 22 Jul 2015 2:14 pm

I would still like to find some work as a steeler, if possible...

Alan Rudd · Post by **Alan Rudd** » 12 Sep 2018 12:14 pm

Looking for work again...played some around here, but things are drying up. Need something new to do...hit me up!
