So bring your chairs and blankets and come escape the heat while listening to the Wakefield Summer Band’s third concert in its “Fridays at the Bandstand” concert series at 7 p.m. The music you hear will include Sousa marches, Broadway numbers, a Disney medley, a Middle Eastern musical story, and even some Elvis! Just in case the forecast is wrong and some rain comes through, the concert will be cancelled due to the unavailability of First Parish Congregational Church.
