Rain Rain, Let Them Play: Rosslyn Jazz Festival

THIS ONE MIGHT be rained out, folks, but just in case the weather guys have it wrong (as usual), we'll let you know about it anyway. Gateway Park will be the setting for the 18th Annual Rosslyn Jazz Festival this Saturday — a great way to get outside, relax and enjoy the dwindling days of summer (unless there's a tropical storm hanging around, that is).

If the show does go on, you can expect performances from Holly Cole, Frederic Yonnet, Lafayette Gilchrist and the Spanish Harlem Orchestra. Do your best sun dance, grab your lawn chair and enjoy the music.

» Gateway Park, 1300 Lee Hwy., Arlington; Sat., Sept. 6, 12:30-7 p.m., free; 703-228-1850. (Rosslyn)
