Go on, fill up on lunch, and on music! > St Mary & St Giles Church, 12.30-1,15, free   Another Story Stroll is happening this evening – another opportunity to go on a walk around the town, and a wander through its tremendous history, which will be delivered through a fusion of story and poetry with professional storyteller Red Phoenix and Richard Frost > Meet on the corner of the High Street and Church Street, 5pm, £2.50   You can sing if you want to, and where better than at a Come and Sing Workshop?

Calcutta Brasserie is offering added spice to its menu this evening, with Good Time Jazz – live music with your madras, or korma? No problem, with Trevor Jeavens and his band taking care of the sounds, while you take care of the tasties on your plates. > Calcutta Brasserie, 7-11pm, free   There's a jam night with original rockers Wade at The Crown. Not the strawberry type, but the plug in, rock out type of event. There will be plenty of slots available for those of you who want to show what step up to the mic, and there is not need to book. Just ask for Chez when you arrive. > Upstairs at The Crown, 8-11pm, free   An Evening with The Bard & Friends is an annual showcase of spoken word, poetry and stand-up, with special guest performers. Bard Phil Chippendale invites you to this evening of great performance... > Downstairs at The Crown, 8-11pm, free   How about a spot of anarchic open mic action? Heidi and Pat will lead you through the special StonyLive! edition of the popular event, with live music from The Scrooge, digging deep and delivering 60s and 70s rock nuggets at the Vaultage Recharged Session > Vaults Bar, 8-11pm, free   Terry Marshall & The Hounds (above) are a Stony Stratford staple, with their weekly jazz and blues jam pulling the punters and putting first class musicianship at the fore.

The music of The Champs and Sounds Incorporated, with frontman Alan Wakeman. > The White Horse, 8.45-11pm, free    Webster-Fergusson, or Peter and Ross to their friends, weave a web of mellow acoustic tones, and will finger-pick their way through delicate riffs and lively rhythms for you. Two guitars will join them, and we have an assurance that there will be the occasional burst of harmonica too. The duo will also use the event to launch their new CD > Bull Hotel (Stables), 9-11pm, £5   Their name won't make those with a fear of arachnids feel too comfortable, but The Spider Club are nowhere near as creepy as you might imagine! The upbeat swing and jive band add in a pinch of rock n roll for your delectation, and a sound system and light show will supplement > The Plough, 9-11pm, free   If reggae is your bag, and Bob Marley and UB40 among your fave-raves, you'll love the session airing courtesy of Unity Reggae for you at your final choice for Thursday... > The Olde George, 9-11pm, free
