MILFORD — The Waterwheel crowd rocked and the walls shook with first-up Lenny Miller, followed by Walt Edwards, and then the Broke Down and Rebuilt Band, which brought the house to a fever pitch during the final hour.
The crowd got into a groove Saturday night the support the 11th year of Milford's Music in the Park concert series this summer. The Frisky Goat in Milford and Alto Music in Middletown, N.Y., donated raffle items and gift certificates.
