Meanwhile in Washington

It's the "Battle of the Law Firm Bands," a charitable event in which bands made up of partners, associates, and summer interns compete to raise the most money for Washington's homeless. The bands have names like "The Precedents" and "Dangerous Communication Device," and according to the Post's critic, some of them were pretty good. "The rock dream never dies," says one attorney. Another adds, "I'm down to a few shows a year. I have a four year old at home."
