Nashville Bankruptcy Lawyers Pay Musical Homage to the Bailout

Posted by Jack Silverman on Mon, Jan 5, 2009 at 5:30 AM

It's probably Nashville's oldest (and lamest) joke: "You're a songwriter? Which restaurant do you work at?" And though the joke is moldier than the 6-month-old SATCO tacos on the bottom shelf of a Vandy freshman's refrigerator, it's also eternally true. In fact, it's not just restaurant workers--in this town, it seems nearly everyone is a songwriter, including half of the Scene's staff. So it should come as no surprise that some of Nashville's finest bankruptcy lawyers recently put their bean-counting heads together to create a lighthearted, holiday-themed musical look back at the violent demise of our economy and the inevitable death of our way of life. The name of the group is B. Gail and the Bankruptcy Boys. Using the finely honed investigative skills that only a veteran reporter possesses (and 30 seconds on Google), we can know for sure that the woman tickling the ivories is none other than B. Gail Reese, an attorney at Wyatt, Tarrant & Combs LLP. Determining the identities of the other group members would take significantly more brain power and initiative than I possess on this post-holiday Monday (i.e., five more minutes of Googling). So, with no further ado, we present to you B. Gail and the Bankruptcy Boys performing "Silver Bail."
