The annual memorial day concert on the grounds of the Capitol always draws a big crowd and significant celebrities. This is going to sound incredibly callous of me - but I've also always found it to be very depressing, not to mention packed.
Instead, I prefer to head out to Wolftrap off 66 and see the Marine Corps Band's free show, followed by fireworks. I always think music is better when its followed by people blowing shit up. Gates open at 6:30, and I'd get there early to get a good spot - fireworks will go off after the concert - probably about 9:45.
If that doesn't float your boat, head out to watch the Nats lose tomorrow night while drinking beer in the outfield bar, and then stick around for Fireworks Fridays - about 10 minutes after the game is over, they shoot off a decent show that's worth hanging around for.
Kaboom.
