For Immediate Release Former Aerosmith Guitarist to Play Live at Barnes and Noble Dick Wagner will play live and sign his newly released book
Bethesda, MD, April 16, 2013: Dick Wagner, former lead guitarist for Alice Cooper, Aerosmith, and Kiss, will perform live on Thursday, April 18th at 7:00 pm at the Barnes & Noble in Burlington, MA, followed by a book signing for his newly released book, NOT ONLY WOMEN BLEED, Vignettes from the Heart of a Rock Musician. This touching, humorous, and racy memoir chronicles the performers career in the rock industry, through a series of subsequent near fatal medical issues. He was diagnosed with an incurable brain condition known as Normal Pressure Hydrocephalus (NPH), which afflicts approximately 375,000 seniors in the United States. After brain surgery and a shunt implantation, he is back on the musical circuit inspiring his wide fan base. Dick’s triumph over NPH is an integral part of his story. His book signings are both compelling and emotional as he weaves his musical performance with his story telling.
The book signing will take place on April 18, 2013 at 7:00 pm at the Barnes & Noble bookstore located at 98 Middlesex Turnpike, Burlington, MA. Mr. Wagner is available to press for interviews after the event. To schedule an interview, please contact Susan Michelson (602) 920-8115 or by email at [email protected].
