  • Playing in the Dirt: Stillwater and the Emergence of Red
    PLAYING IN THE DIRT: STILLWATER AND THE EMERGENCE OF RED DIRT MUSIC By AARON M. MOORE Bachelor of Arts in Education in History Northeastern State University Tahlequah, Oklahoma 1998 Submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate College of the Oklahoma State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of MASTER OF ARTS July, 2010 © 2010 Aaron M. Moore ALL RIGHTS RESERVED PLAYING IN THE DIRT: STILLWATER AND THE EMERGENCE OF RED DIRT MUSIC Thesis Approved: Dr. William Bryans Thesis Adviser Dr. Michael Logan Dr. L.G. Moses Mr. Wayne Bovenschen Dr. Mark E. Payton Dean of the Graduate College iii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS It is a pleasure to thank the many people who made this thesis possible. First I would like to express my gratitude to Jay Falkner for introducing me to Red Dirt music in 1998 by playing Jimmy LaFave’s album Austin Skyline and for subsequently involving me in his many bands. Without the contacts made from working with Marshallcity and South 40, I would have been unable to begin this project. It is difficult to overstate my gratitude to John Cooper and Brad Piccolo of the Red Dirt Rangers. Their willingness to share their experiences and contact others in the Red Dirt community to get their assistance has been a true blessing. I am indebted to my advisor, Dr. Bill Bryans for his willingness to work with me on a popular history topic. His efforts to explain things clearly and simply were of great value during course work and during my thesis-writing period. I would also like to thank Dr.
