Get a copy of today's Washington Post and check out the "Weekend" magazine within. Local shows such as what you probably want are listed beginning on page 15. I think you will be pleasantly surprised.

OK, we've heard WHAT to play, HOW to sing it, WHETHER it's a worthy song or not, but WHERE is it?

Some people in search of song will be in town this weekend. Where to go? Where to sing and whom to hear?

Thanks for the tips, Capitol mudcateers.
