It’s the last weekend before school starts for many of our youngsters here on the North Coast, so parents, this might be the final weekend of summer where you’re not doing homework for your kiddos. The Compost Mountain Boys return to the Mad River Brewery Tap Room this evening at 6 p.m. doing their string thing for you for free. Dance around and celebrate the summer. “Nostalgic pop/rock” band Decades will be down on the Madaket Plaza playing hits from many decades for you around the same time. From a radio spot about the band, I heard some great hits from the early pre-psychedelic ’60s ranging all the way up to what I thought were some hits from the ’90s and early aughts. It’s something for everyone, outdoors and free.
