This week's winner: Chuck Perry of Largo knew that country music legend Dolly Parton wrote the classic Jolene. Hats off -- and a Weekend T-shirt -- to you, partner!
This week's question: Cartoonist and avid music lover Matt Groening, creator of The Simpsons, has been chosen to coordinate the acts for the 2003 United States version of All Tomorrow's Parties, an annual underground music festival that began years ago in Britain. (The U.S. fest will be held at the University of California at Los Angeles.) The festival's name is also the title of a classic song by a 1960s underground band. To enter your name in the random drawing for the Weekend T-shirt, tell Team Pop which band wrote the song. Extra points if you know the name of the songwriter, who went on to become a solo star.
