Thanks to Daily Info, Hilary and I found something much less generic than a movie to do tonight: specifically, we discovered the entertaining jazz nights that take place every Monday at the Chester Arms on Chester Road, off Iffley Road. There is no cover charge, the music is good, and the atmosphere is a pleasant one. The music begins at 9:00pm. I shall be making a return trip or two during weeks later this term.

In the spring of 2005, I graduated from the University of British Columbia with a degree in International Relations and a general focus in the area of environmental politics. In the fall of 2005, I began reading for an M.Phil in IR at Wadham College, Oxford.
Outside school, I am very interested in photography, writing, and the outdoors. I am writing this blog to keep in touch with friends and family around the world, provide a more personal view of graduate student life in Oxford, and pass on some lessons I've learned here.

You should keep an eye on Music in Oxford, as well.
Several of the musicians who Hilary conversed with suggested that we go see Celtic music at the Half Moon. Unfortunately, neither of us can recall which night of the week they said it happens on. I will have to try calling them after returning from Paris.
This pub is one I rather like – particularly the oversized wooden chairs. They also host a folk club from time to time, but I hadn’t caught up on their jazz foray.
My friend Sharron Kraus is a half moon regular, when in the UK – she’ll have the dates.
Antonia,
The Sharron Kraus link doesn’t go anywhere. If you post it again, I can delete the earlier comment.
