jazz clubs in nyc (manhattan)?
The first stop I%26#39;d make is on Mon. night at Dizzy%26#39;s Coca Cola. This venue is affiliated with Lincoln Center jazz/Julliard school of music and Mon. nights they have students performing (which also means the cover charge is less ;) You%26#39;ll also see a student promotion on the website which means your son can get in for $5 and eat free I think.

Also on Mon. nights, the great jazz guitarist Les Paul plays at Iridium. You could hit both since they%26#39;re not far apart.

Birdland is also in midtown and has some great performers.

Here%26#39;s a link to what I think is the best website for jazz. I%26#39;m giving you the page that talks about the different clubs and options but there%26#39;s a list of clubs on the website too.
