Wichita's rock music is subject of upcoming book

A new book documenting the history of rock music in Wichita will debut during a music reunion concert held at Margarita's Cantina located at 3109 East Douglas Ave. at 4 p.m. Sunday, Dec. 3. The event is free and open to the public. "Wichita Rock & Roll, 1950-1980" tells the stories of the bands that played a rowdy and lively local music scene that shaped a generation of Wichita youth. Proceeds of the book will go to WSU's Department of History to support ongoing research projects. For more information, contact Jay Price at 978-7792 or email jay.price@wichita.edu.
