This week's winner: Violet Milne McIntyre of Dunedin knew that Tori Amos recorded some of her Under The Pink album in the home studio of Nine Inch Nails' Trent Reznor, who was living in the California mansion once owned by actor Sharon Tate, who was murdered by the followers of Charles Manson in 1969.
This week's question: Roger McGuinn performs in Tarpon Springs this weekend. McGuinn made waves in the 1960s as leader of the Byrds and helped write the classic So You Want To Be A Rock & Roll Star. To enter your name in the random drawing for the Weekend T-shirt, tell us what female punk singer gave us her version of the song in 1979. (Mega extra bonus points: So You Want To Be A Rock & Roll Star was the third track on this singer's album. The track before it, an original, was covered by U2 in the late 1980s and released on the band's The Best Of (1980-1990). What was the name of the tune? Get both questions correct and win two T-shirts!)
