Team Pop Trivia

This week's winner: Trish Bowersox of Clearwater knew that Jane Wiedlin of the Go-Go's wrote Our Lips Are Sealed with Terry Hall, who was at the time singer of early 1980s British band Fun Boy Three. (Several sharp Team Pop members pointed out that Hall was previously singer for the Specials.)
This week's question: Ambient music pioneer and producer to the stars Brian Eno declined an offer by his former late 1970s/early 1980s band to join its summer reunion tour. "It's history. I'm not interested anymore," Eno said. "I mean, it's obvious why it's being done. Why does anyone have a reunion? They've suddenly been fired up with a whole bunch of incredible new ideas that have been lying dormant for the last 25 years?"
To get your name in the random drawing for the Weekend T-shirt, tell me the name of Eno's former band.
