If you love reggae, Saturday will be your night, with plenty of music around town to ease into your chill vibe. If you're not a fan, however, you can still find something to suit your fancy. The Sweet and Tender Hooligans return to the Casbah for their annual night of classics by the Smiths and Morrissey. Zongo Junction promise a party-good time with their Afrobeat jams at Soda Bar, and Bar Pink features two Requiemme artists, Maren Parusel and Hills Like Elephants. There's plenty of great tunes around town, so be sure to get out and enjoy the last weekend of 2012.
