After years of self-destructive behavior, Alan is happily married to his wife Valerie, with their three children, four grandchildren and two great-grandchildren. He is still out on the road keeping the country music of the late 40's and early 50's alive with his band the Lovesick Drifters. They do a tribute to the late Hank Williams as well as their original music of that style.

He is also the pastor of Just Jesus Community Church in Garner, NC.
