Team Pop Trivia

By GINA VIVINETTO
Published September 4, 2003

This week's winner: Wendy Sommers of Pinellas Park knew that Jack Grisham, one of the dozens of candidates for the governor's race in California, is the lead singer of legendary Los Angeles punk band T.S.O.L. (Extra points to those of you who knew the name stands for True Sounds Of Liberty.)

This week's question: Friday marks birthday 57 for zany folk singer Loudon Wainwright III, who scored a hit in 1972 with the novelty tune Dead Skunk. Wainwright, papa to singers Rufus Wainwright and Martha Wainwright (their mother is Wainwright's ex-wife, Kate McGarrigle of the twin folk duo Kate & Anna McGarrigle) , also had a featured role on a popular '70s TV show. To enter your name in the random drawing for the Weekend T-shirt, name the show.
