Great News for The New Spur Band !

We have a new member in our band "New Spur" ! My own brother Mike Knapp will be playing keyboards for us. This is a dream of mine for quite some time now. We have been so far apart for so many years that it was not an option for us to get to be in a band together until now since he has moved back to Missouri. Mike is a very accomplished musician and multi-talented too. He is fluent on Keyboards , bass guitar , lead guitar and drums ! He has played on the road with several national act musicians… Continue

A Great Time at the Sunday Jam Session !

Well , we had a great turn out for the jam session at the welcome home party ! We had several good singers and some bass players and a drummer show up to play. Our singer Bill Hudgens had to leave early because of a long drive out to western Kansas for work so my friend and band mate Keevin Lee from another band I play with ( Rebel Ridge) came out and filled the lead singer spot and done a wonderful job ! We actually got some job prospect from some other people there that were scouting bands ! S… Continue

Answer to a site question

A lot of people have asked about their bio info and where to put it. On your page when you open your account it has a place right in the middle of the page that says " Text and HTML" This is where you write in your bio. And it is nice if you can add some info about what you play and about yourself for others to see and get to know you a little. Also , don't be afraid to post some blogs and add to the Forum or add your events so people will know where your appearing at. This site is for you to US… Continue
