K-STATE MARCHING BAND BRINGING STADIUM TUNES INDOORS FOR ANNUAL CONCERT FEATURING HALFTIME MUSIC FROM FOOTBALL SEASON

MANHATTAN -- After the last regular-season football game is over, fans of the Kansas State University Marching Band will get another chance to hear their favorite tunes.

The band will perform music from the 2006 football season during a concert at 3 p.m. Sunday, Nov. 19, at Ahearn Field House. The K-State Classy Cats, color guard and featured twirler also will perform. The marching band will perform while seated but still will play pieces that include spirited school songs and cheers.

Admission to the concert is free, but donations to offset the costs of putting on the concert will be welcome.

The performance will be recorded for a compact disc, which can be ordered at the concert. The CD also will be available at a later date at the K-State Student Union Bookstore and at Varney's Book Store, 623 N. Manhattan Ave., in Manhattan.
