This Week: The We're-All-Rock-Stars Edition. As long as we're all angling to be rock stars with our weblogs, why not recognize the unique riffs of all the hard-working law-student webloggers? Sure they should be spending their summers writing onto law review, but they're not--they're blogging! This edition of the Law School Roundup is for them. As an extra-special bonus, each featured post is titled with a line from an actual, real-life rock song. For anyone harebrained enough to care, I'll post a list of the songs I used in the continuation--
