If one had had any inclination to go hear a concert this weekend, in spite of the snow, everything was canceled anyway. There will likely be more cancellations tomorrow and Tuesday, so as with everything else, call the venue before you head out the door.

LOCAL TALENT:
>> Chantry has rescheduled its Music for St. Mary program to this Tuesday (February 9, 8 p.m.) at St. Mary, Mother of God (5th and H St. NW).
