	3:22pm Adrian in London: @Sheila This TOPS song has a bit of a Nikki and the Dove feel to it. A good thing, obvs…
	3:23pm JtotheK: hi sheilaB, hi jesse, hi boom-boomers.
	3:26pm jj.: seriously, sheila's premium mix is really excellent. no foolin'. warm weather music for whatever season your body currently resides. so highly recommended!
	3:29pm P-90: "Give that girl a show!"
	3:30pm bobdoesthings: loving the love here
	3:33pm listener james from westwood: Checking in from the phone room and confirming that Sheila is as energetic and caffeinated to watch DJ as she is to listen to! Ring in and support the boom-boom!
	3:35pm Adrian in London: I have been listening to the Julie Byrne album non-stop all week. The UK vinyl sold out in no time and there's a second pressing coming. Her London show sold out before i even heard about it. frustrated grimace
	3:36pm adrian in mpls: @Adrian in London - Me too! I listened to the Julie Byrne album three times through this morning. I've probably listened to her in the last year more than anyone else.
	3:38pm Cecile: not meaning to be nosy, Sheila, but did you get the nasty stomach bug that was going around here? Terrible stuff.
	3:39pm mark r: If you love Sheila's show as much as I do, you'll help get that little thermometer thingie up above 40% Raised, for goodness sake! And wasn't Julie Byrne beautiful?
	3:43pm Cecile: 70s, they smoked a lot of dope.
	3:43pm Adrian in London: @adrian in mpls: Julie Byrne is obviously an Adriatic thing!
	3:43pm Tommy in Neversink: Just sent some $$$love your way ! Thank you for all you do for us and FMU
	3:44pm Cecile: you fellas and your Adri-antics!
	3:44pm Adrian in London: @adrian in mols: And without sounding like 1990s Amazon, if you like Julie Byrne you might like Tiny Vipers, who is equally as marvellous.
	3:45pm Adrian in London: @Cecile: It's an Adrian thing, you wouldn't understand… ;-)
	3:46pm Cecile: hahahahaha
	3:48pm Cecile: it's very unusual that there are two Adrians in the room, IME. It must be nice - I prick my ears up and go "what?" at the TV when I am washing the Flash, and they say the name of a character's girlfriend, Cecile.
	3:49pm Cecile: They HAVE to be talking to me, right?
	3:49pm Adrian in London: Ha, @TheContessa is clapping along in the kitchen, I'm clapping along in the living room; our laptops are slightly out of sync so it's sounding somewhat, uh, discordant…
	3:50pm Cecile: who did a good disco version of this Elgins song in the 70s? It's on the tip of my tongue.
	3:50pm ncjay: Bonnie Pointer
	3:51pm modchick65: Just donated. Want that premium.
	3:52pm Adrian in London: @Sheila: We saw Alesha when she was somewhat, how shall I put it… 'unwell' at a Cirque du Soleil party
	3:53pm Adrian in London: @mod, The Contessa here, good to see you!
	3:54pm modchick65: Hi Contessa! I'm happy to be here! I've been listening on Mondays for the past few weeks, but I prefer to listen live with you guys!
	3:55pm Adrian in London: @mod, of course you do!
	3:55pm Cecile: yes! That's who it was, ncjay!
	3:57pm ncjay: Cecile, the 12" is worth getting - the disco version on one side, and an updated Elgins-style version on the flip
	3:57pm Cecile: And you are both champions of women Artists.
	3:58pm Cecile: I will check it out, ncjay. A Pointer Sister would totally get the vibe of a vintage song right.
	3:58pm Adrian in London: By the way Julie Byrne fans, she did a lovely session for Shrunken Planet at the beginning of the month www.wfmu.org...
	4:00pm modchick65: That film sounds awesome... at least the Paris in the 60s bit. The rest of it sounds dire.
	4:00pm βrian: If you want, you can't pronounce her name "Ahnn-yess"
	4:01pm JakeGould: Erin go Bragh! Please pledge now everyone to keep WFMU around. Pledge via phone at 800-989-9368. Or pledge online at pledge.wfmu.org...
	4:01pm βrian: That is, "you can pronounce ..." Sheesh.
	4:01pm Rob Kopp: One hour time difference? Just checked in, one hour too late
	4:02pm The Contessa: @Rob! Disaster!
	4:03pm modchick65: My pledge is based on the fact that I have been so freaking depressed since November 8th, and, when I think of things that still can make me happy, Sophisticated Boom Boom is on that list. Thanks, Sheila. Really.
	4:04pm Passaic River Blues: OK, one more bump for Curtis on the Boom Boom. This show is a salve for the soul.
	4:04pm Rob Kopp: Well, fortunately our election didn't become a disaster. Wilders stuck to 20 out of 150 ... of course that's still 20 too much
	4:05pm The Contessa: @mod, don't let The Big Orange Goof – thanks to @KenFHP for that term - get you down. That way he wins
	4:06pm modchick65: I know @Contessa, but it's really difficult. Everything is so incredibly wrong, and unnecessarily so.
	4:08pm βrian: @ modchick65: True dat.
	4:09pm Passaic River Blues: @modchick65: yes, needless cruelty at every turn.
	4:09pm βrian: Yes, but you're not wrong either.
	4:10pm bobdoesthings: wait those silly green pieces of paper with the faces on 'em ?? - people aren't sharing those?!? phfftt just give 'em to wfmu!! Fools!
	4:11pm modchick65: "THEY'RE PLEDGING FROM INSIDE THE HOUSE!"
	4:12pm Adrian in London: @Modchick: Our horrific former chancellor of the exchequor George Osborne, who has five jobs already – including a £650,000 consulting job with a financial company – least of which is being an MP, has been appointed the new editor of the daily London paper the Evening Standard, despite never having worked in journalism in his life. Yes, I AM drinking.
	4:13pm sugarwolf: @modchick65: there is so much out there that needs support, but I know with my pledging and volunteering, I am contributing to HAPPINESS
	4:13pm bobdoesthings: so much happiness! hey sugarwolf! nice meeting you last week
	4:13pm Tim 07030: 6 bucks from 75% of station's goal
	4:14pm Adrian in London: I'm looking forward to getting Glynis's premium; bring on the fuzz pop!
	4:14pm Rob Kopp: Hi Glynis. Beside SBB I always listen to your show Crayons To Perfume as well (100% girls from the 60's)
	4:14pm sugarwolf: You too @bobdoesthings!!!
	4:14pm modchick65: There are sanctions against Iran.
	4:15pm bobdoesthings: Sheila should be wrapped up tightly and tied to her chair.. she sounds like she might explode with joy or lift off
	4:20pm The Contessa: Hey everyone, our lovely DJ is halfway to this week's goal, after pulling in massive bucks last week! Sheila you are magic!
	4:23pm modchick65: Wooooooo, way to go!!
	4:23pm Rob Kopp: Sunny afternoon by who?
	4:25pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I'm an AntiMonarchist - but Congratulations on your Knighthood - Sir Ray Davies.
	4:25pm Rob Kopp: I have a lot of Kinks covers (see www.kindakinks.net... that's my list) but I don't know this one
	4:25pm Cecile: how can you tell when a DJ is 1/2 way to their goal?
	4:26pm Cecile: "telling tales of drunkenness and cruelty" I loved this when I was a teen.
	4:27pm βrian: @Cecile: pledge.wfmu.org...
	4:27pm Cecile: awesome, thanks Brian!
	4:27pm bobdoesthings: @cecile - check the pledge banner in black on top of playlist - reads out the percentage - we're at 52% currently
	4:28pm dale: bitcoin?
	4:28pm Cecile: goats?
	4:29pm βrian: You won't get far with Deutsche marks, these days.
	4:29pm steve: i still don't understand the relative popularity of the word "ducats"
	4:29pm Cecile: it sounds cool?
	4:30pm Rob Kopp: Sheila: we have euro's in Europe, no Deutch marks or Italian lira anymore
	4:30pm cklequ: The station's goal has shot up today. A lot since I last checked. That can't be a bad sign.
	4:31pm Ken From Hyde Park: The Monopoly thimble, boot and wheelbarrow are available now as legal currency, I do believe.
	4:31pm Cecile: I will pay you in Scottie dog figurines and Mexican Coca-Cola.
	4:33pm bobdoesthings: awww stop it guys.. (robert from bk)
	4:34pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Well - this weekend is it to make the whole Station Goal. I upped my SwagForLife 20% & I only start a new job Monday!
	4:36pm steve: i dont hear Jesse as much as I'd like on Monday nights but he's such a charming co host!
	4:36pm modchick65: Fleetwood Mac!
	4:37pm modchick65: There were actually ones who slept with each other that aren't immediately apparent.
	4:38pm Cecile: Stevie says there probably will never be another record of 'Mac new material., but they'll keep touring.
	4:39pm modchick65: It's weird... this song makes me cold. Like, physically cold, because I remember listening to it in the winter back in the day.
	4:41pm Mary Wing: Sheila killing it yet again! Pledge for Fleetwood Mac, played unironically!
	4:43pm Mary Wing: @Cecile from 4:25 pm: the percentage is only viewable after the DJ sets a dollar-amount goal, which usually happens about midway through the show.
	4:45pm modchick65: I like this Geowulf song.
	4:48pm bobdoesthings: gotta run - Thanks Sheila B and Jesse!! great job. GO MARATHON GO! pledge like the wind.
	4:50pm Cecile: thanks, Mary!
	4:51pm Cecile: NO
	4:52pm Parq: Pledge because if you don't, FMU will wink out and the replacements station will play plenty of Billy Joel.
	4:52pm Adrian in London: Oh, Gawd, not Gordon again!!!
	4:54pm βrian: I always confuse the mononymous musicians. Which is Sting? Which is Bone-O? Ach!
	4:57pm modchick65: This song is gorgeous. I would listen to it over and over again, too.
	4:58pm Gaylord Fields: A DAVID GATES PRODUCTION!!! Oh, Sheila, you know how to make my ears and heart happy!
	4:58pm JasonInBoston: MARGARET MANDOLPH! RUSS T IN THE HOUSE! One of the RT holy trinity 1. I Never Dreamed / 2. She Don't DeserveYou / 3. I Want to Make You Happy - in my top 10 of all time!
	4:58pm The Contessa: Miss B! This is so dreamy
	4:58pm Adrian in London: Oh, this is such a lovely song.
	4:59pm Rob Kopp: Single of the year!
	4:59pm Gaylord Fields: Russ Titelman + Dave Gates = pop perfection!
	4:59pm Cecile: this song right here is one I would listen to over and over. I like weirder chord changes.
	5:00pm The Contessa: Nice to see mention of Russ Titelman on this show
	5:00pm dale: david gates produced that. pretty sure it's THAT david gates.
	5:01pm dale: gaylord beat me to it.
	5:01pm Gaylord Fields: @dale: You bet your sweet bippy it is!
	5:01pm The Contessa: Tammi, Tammi, Tammi, you're killing us. Thanks Sheila
	5:01pm Cecile: David Gates was in the Magic Band with Beefheart. Wrote a great song for him, too, Moonchild.
	5:02pm dale: matt warwick played a nice early charlie rich tune, but he attributed it to 'charlie' on the playlist. 70s british charlie?
	5:03pm The Contessa: 60%
	5:04pm Rob Kopp: @Cecile: Moonchild of Captain Beefheart by David Gates? I didn't know that!
	5:04pm steve: what kind of monster would shelve that song... it nearly had me in tears!
	5:05pm Cecile: yes, Robb, that very song!
	5:05pm P-90: MOMS ARE THE BESTEST!
	5:05pm Cecile: steve, ITA. Haunting and wonderful.
	5:06pm Cecile: ANNIE!
	5:07pm JtotheK: margaret mandolph - new to me, dig it!
	5:08pm Adrian in London: JUNIORE!!!!
	5:11pm Cecile: is marabou/marabout a kind of pun? I don't understand French well enough to know.
	5:12pm Rob Kopp: At the moment Zig zag wanderer by Captain Beefheart is no. 1 in the monthly top 10 of Platenclub Utrecht. That's a club of 7 Dutch record collectors (6 others and me) and since about 2 months Hans owns a copy of the very rare Dutch pressing of that single.
	5:14pm Rob Kopp: Beside collecting records we're also releasing them! So far 11 vinyl singles/EP's. See www.platenclubutrecht.nl
	5:17pm Cecile: Jeff Lynne is often mocked, but he's done a hell of a lot of good music.
	5:18pm The Contessa: If you watch documentaries about him you'll find that Jeff Lynne is a genius!
	5:19pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: @C'ec: People put down his Production a lot - but it's probably a case of it now & then being applied to the wrong material - a mark of its' distinctiveness, in a way.
	5:20pm dale: nanette fabray is her aunt, despite the different spellings.
	5:20pm Cecile: I haven't watched any Lynne documentaries, but being a huge Move and ELO fan, I'm pretty convinced.
	5:21pm The Contessa: Oh God, @Cecile he's just SO clever!
	5:21pm dale: i LOVE how you went out with 'sheila take a bow' last week. so perfect!
	5:21pm Cecile: yeah, RevRab. Like T-Bone Burnett de-fanging every roots rock group in the 80s. Except Lynne's production tended to be way more energetic and strange when it took missteps. You have to applaud the risks.
	5:23pm Rob Kopp: Shelley Fabares also recorded a couple of P.F. Sloan tunes (my favourite American songwriter after Bob Dylan). Her best effort to me is See ya 'round on the rebound.
	5:23pm dale: 'call me' by blondie?
	5:24pm Cecile: Shelley is pretty dang cool. She's also done a gargantuan amount of work helping Alzheimer's research.
	5:24pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: If a guy from Band A is the Producer of Band B - there's a good chance it will sound a lot like Band A.
	5:25pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...that's basic anyhow...
	5:25pm The Contessa: If everyone listening just gives $10 or even $5, Sheila can reach her next massive total. Please give!
	5:26pm Cecile: play some Ozzy! I'll pledge for Ozzy.
	5:27pm Rob Kopp: @Cecile: about T-Bone Burnett: What a coincidence. Today I heard his fabulous cover of Roky Erickson's song "Nothing in return" again for the first time in about 10 years.
	5:27pm PsychopathJimFields: Simply an observation, not a criticism: I've heard more ABBA on this station in the last year than have since the '70s. 1-800-989-9368
	5:28pm Cecile: Rob, I prefer him as an artist for sure.
	5:28pm Adrian in London: All these people in London: I think I need to organise a SBB get-together.
	5:30pm Rob Kopp: @Adrian: When you do, I'll be there
	5:30pm The Contessa: @Adrian in London, I'm there!
	5:30pm PJ: I'm digging the Big Star vibe of this arrangement of With a Little Help
	5:31pm Adrian in London: @MrPsychopath: I normally listen to moody ambient drone but for three hours on a Friday night it's pop pop pop all the way!
	5:32pm Tommy in Neversink: If you haven't pledged to Sheila B we are sending ICE agents to your residence..not the Feds ..just guys who will fill the ice trays you neglected to fill ....you will be so embarrassed ...so why not pledge and avoid that humiliation
	5:32pm The Contessa: Half an hour to go. We can't let Sheila down listeners. Just chip in!
	5:32pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Lovely Rita - when are you free to take some tea w/ me?
	5:35pm modchick65: My goodness, what is happening in that studio?
	5:35pm The Contessa: Everyone! Last week and this week, Sheila B has raised more than 20 thousand of your American dollars!! Pledge to get her to the total before she implodes
	5:37pm PsychopathJimFields: Adrian in London: I had the pleasure of telling Sheila in person how much I enjoy her show earlier in the week
	5:38pm modchick65: I wish SBB people in Brooklyn could meet up. That would be fun.
	5:38pm dale: next year i'm spreading my pledges out - i wanna win some booty.
	5:38pm modchick65: FILTHY BURT BACHARACH. YESSSSSSSSSSSS
	5:39pm The Contessa: @mod, you know you want to come to London. Join our London faction
	5:39pm dale: her 'american folk songs' is simply brilliant.
	5:39pm Adrian in London: @MrPsychopath:Lucky you!!
	5:41pm Cecile: this isn't that filthy, it's kind of witty.
	5:44pm Adrian in London: Meanwhile, on Twitter I'm busy encoring witch-house artists to tune in and pledge…
	5:44pm Rob Kopp: And Mr. T wants to forbid this kind of music from Iran?
	5:44pm P-90: Mehrnoosh is kinda groovy. Also sounds like something that would be delicious spread on pita.
	5:46pm Jeez: Adrian, you are the light of my life!
	5:47pm Matt in Hillsborough: rude!
	5:48pm The Contessa: Yeah, rude dude!
	5:48pm Cecile: wow, Jeez. Anyone who gets people to pledge is OK with me.
	5:50pm Rob Kopp: You're surely not
	5:53pm Rob Kopp: Sounds like Roadrunnner by The Modern Lovers: radio on, radio on, radio on
	5:57pm modchick65: @Contessa I've always wanted to live in London. I'm a big Anglophile. It's hard to meet people to hang out with in NYC.
	5:58pm The Contessa: Congratulations Sheila and Jesse! Great show, many dollars raised! Sheila you are a star! xx
	5:59pm modchick65: Congrats SBB!!
	5:59pm Rob Kopp: Bye everyone. And congrats SheilaB.
	5:59pm P-90: Congratulations Sheila, Jesse, everyone
	5:59pm Ken From Hyde Park: Boom boom bye! Have a good Hoof 'n' Mouth!

	3:20pm Will: THIS SONG IS AMAZING
	3:22pm The Contessa: Liking Petals…
	3:22pm djsheilab: Hello Friday gang! It's a beautiful sunny day here in NJ! Hope everyone's well n' happy! Please show your support for sophistication + pledge to WFMU! pledge.wfmu.org...
	3:22pm Adrian in London: @Sheila This TOPS song has a bit of a Nikki and the Dove feel to it. A good thing, obvs…
	3:23pm JtotheK: hi sheilaB, hi jesse, hi boom-boomers.
	3:26pm jj.: seriously, sheila's premium mix is really excellent. no foolin'. warm weather music for whatever season your body currently resides. so highly recommended!
	3:29pm P-90: "Give that girl a show!"
	3:30pm bobdoesthings: loving the love here
	3:33pm listener james from westwood: Checking in from the phone room and confirming that Sheila is as energetic and caffeinated to watch DJ as she is to listen to! Ring in and support the boom-boom!
	3:35pm Adrian in London: I have been listening to the Julie Byrne album non-stop all week. The UK vinyl sold out in no time and there's a second pressing coming. Her London show sold out before i even heard about it. frustrated grimace
	3:36pm adrian in mpls: @Adrian in London - Me too! I listened to the Julie Byrne album three times through this morning. I've probably listened to her in the last year more than anyone else.
	3:38pm Cecile: not meaning to be nosy, Sheila, but did you get the nasty stomach bug that was going around here? Terrible stuff.
	3:39pm mark r: If you love Sheila's show as much as I do, you'll help get that little thermometer thingie up above 40% Raised, for goodness sake! And wasn't Julie Byrne beautiful?
	3:43pm Cecile: 70s, they smoked a lot of dope.
	3:43pm Adrian in London: @adrian in mpls: Julie Byrne is obviously an Adriatic thing!
	3:43pm Tommy in Neversink: Just sent some $$$love your way ! Thank you for all you do for us and FMU
	3:44pm Cecile: you fellas and your Adri-antics!
	3:44pm Adrian in London: @adrian in mols: And without sounding like 1990s Amazon, if you like Julie Byrne you might like Tiny Vipers, who is equally as marvellous.
	3:45pm Adrian in London: @Cecile: It's an Adrian thing, you wouldn't understand… ;-)
	3:46pm Cecile: hahahahaha
	3:48pm Cecile: it's very unusual that there are two Adrians in the room, IME. It must be nice - I prick my ears up and go "what?" at the TV when I am washing the Flash, and they say the name of a character's girlfriend, Cecile.
	3:49pm Cecile: They HAVE to be talking to me, right?
	3:49pm Adrian in London: Ha, @TheContessa is clapping along in the kitchen, I'm clapping along in the living room; our laptops are slightly out of sync so it's sounding somewhat, uh, discordant…
	3:50pm Cecile: who did a good disco version of this Elgins song in the 70s? It's on the tip of my tongue.
	3:50pm ncjay: Bonnie Pointer
	3:51pm modchick65: Just donated. Want that premium.
	3:52pm Adrian in London: @Sheila: We saw Alesha when she was somewhat, how shall I put it… 'unwell' at a Cirque du Soleil party
	3:53pm Adrian in London: @mod, The Contessa here, good to see you!
	3:54pm modchick65: Hi Contessa! I'm happy to be here! I've been listening on Mondays for the past few weeks, but I prefer to listen live with you guys!
	3:55pm Adrian in London: @mod, of course you do!
	3:55pm Cecile: yes! That's who it was, ncjay!
	3:57pm ncjay: Cecile, the 12" is worth getting - the disco version on one side, and an updated Elgins-style version on the flip
	3:57pm Cecile: And you are both champions of women Artists.
	3:58pm Cecile: I will check it out, ncjay. A Pointer Sister would totally get the vibe of a vintage song right.
	3:58pm Adrian in London: By the way Julie Byrne fans, she did a lovely session for Shrunken Planet at the beginning of the month www.wfmu.org...
	4:00pm modchick65: That film sounds awesome... at least the Paris in the 60s bit. The rest of it sounds dire.
	4:00pm βrian: If you want, you can't pronounce her name "Ahnn-yess"
	4:01pm JakeGould: Erin go Bragh! Please pledge now everyone to keep WFMU around. Pledge via phone at 800-989-9368. Or pledge online at pledge.wfmu.org...
	4:01pm βrian: That is, "you can pronounce ..." Sheesh.
	4:01pm Rob Kopp: One hour time difference? Just checked in, one hour too late
	4:02pm The Contessa: @Rob! Disaster!
	4:03pm modchick65: My pledge is based on the fact that I have been so freaking depressed since November 8th, and, when I think of things that still can make me happy, Sophisticated Boom Boom is on that list. Thanks, Sheila. Really.
	4:04pm Passaic River Blues: OK, one more bump for Curtis on the Boom Boom. This show is a salve for the soul.
	4:04pm Rob Kopp: Well, fortunately our election didn't become a disaster. Wilders stuck to 20 out of 150 ... of course that's still 20 too much
	4:05pm The Contessa: @mod, don't let The Big Orange Goof – thanks to @KenFHP for that term - get you down. That way he wins
	4:06pm modchick65: I know @Contessa, but it's really difficult. Everything is so incredibly wrong, and unnecessarily so.
	4:08pm βrian: @ modchick65: True dat.
	4:09pm Passaic River Blues: @modchick65: yes, needless cruelty at every turn.
	4:09pm βrian: Yes, but you're not wrong either.
	4:10pm bobdoesthings: wait those silly green pieces of paper with the faces on 'em ?? - people aren't sharing those?!? phfftt just give 'em to wfmu!! Fools!
	4:11pm modchick65: "THEY'RE PLEDGING FROM INSIDE THE HOUSE!"
	4:12pm Adrian in London: @Modchick: Our horrific former chancellor of the exchequor George Osborne, who has five jobs already – including a £650,000 consulting job with a financial company – least of which is being an MP, has been appointed the new editor of the daily London paper the Evening Standard, despite never having worked in journalism in his life. Yes, I AM drinking.
	4:13pm sugarwolf: @modchick65: there is so much out there that needs support, but I know with my pledging and volunteering, I am contributing to HAPPINESS
	4:13pm bobdoesthings: so much happiness! hey sugarwolf! nice meeting you last week
	4:13pm Tim 07030: 6 bucks from 75% of station's goal
	4:14pm Adrian in London: I'm looking forward to getting Glynis's premium; bring on the fuzz pop!
	4:14pm Rob Kopp: Hi Glynis. Beside SBB I always listen to your show Crayons To Perfume as well (100% girls from the 60's)
	4:14pm sugarwolf: You too @bobdoesthings!!!
	4:14pm modchick65: There are sanctions against Iran.
	4:15pm bobdoesthings: Sheila should be wrapped up tightly and tied to her chair.. she sounds like she might explode with joy or lift off
	4:20pm The Contessa: Hey everyone, our lovely DJ is halfway to this week's goal, after pulling in massive bucks last week! Sheila you are magic!
	4:23pm modchick65: Wooooooo, way to go!!
	4:23pm Rob Kopp: Sunny afternoon by who?
	4:25pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I'm an AntiMonarchist - but Congratulations on your Knighthood - Sir Ray Davies.
	4:25pm Rob Kopp: I have a lot of Kinks covers (see www.kindakinks.net... that's my list) but I don't know this one
	4:25pm Cecile: how can you tell when a DJ is 1/2 way to their goal?
	4:26pm Cecile: "telling tales of drunkenness and cruelty" I loved this when I was a teen.
	4:27pm βrian: @Cecile: pledge.wfmu.org...
	4:27pm Cecile: awesome, thanks Brian!
	4:27pm bobdoesthings: @cecile - check the pledge banner in black on top of playlist - reads out the percentage - we're at 52% currently
	4:28pm dale: bitcoin?
	4:28pm Cecile: goats?
	4:29pm βrian: You won't get far with Deutsche marks, these days.
	4:29pm steve: i still don't understand the relative popularity of the word "ducats"
	4:29pm Cecile: it sounds cool?
	4:30pm Rob Kopp: Sheila: we have euro's in Europe, no Deutch marks or Italian lira anymore
	4:30pm cklequ: The station's goal has shot up today. A lot since I last checked. That can't be a bad sign.
	4:31pm Ken From Hyde Park: The Monopoly thimble, boot and wheelbarrow are available now as legal currency, I do believe.
	4:31pm Cecile: I will pay you in Scottie dog figurines and Mexican Coca-Cola.
	4:33pm bobdoesthings: awww stop it guys.. (robert from bk)
	4:34pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Well - this weekend is it to make the whole Station Goal. I upped my SwagForLife 20% & I only start a new job Monday!
	4:36pm steve: i dont hear Jesse as much as I'd like on Monday nights but he's such a charming co host!
	4:36pm modchick65: Fleetwood Mac!
	4:37pm modchick65: There were actually ones who slept with each other that aren't immediately apparent.
	4:38pm Cecile: Stevie says there probably will never be another record of 'Mac new material., but they'll keep touring.
	4:39pm modchick65: It's weird... this song makes me cold. Like, physically cold, because I remember listening to it in the winter back in the day.
	4:41pm Mary Wing: Sheila killing it yet again! Pledge for Fleetwood Mac, played unironically!
	4:43pm Mary Wing: @Cecile from 4:25 pm: the percentage is only viewable after the DJ sets a dollar-amount goal, which usually happens about midway through the show.
	4:45pm modchick65: I like this Geowulf song.
	4:48pm bobdoesthings: gotta run - Thanks Sheila B and Jesse!! great job. GO MARATHON GO! pledge like the wind.
	4:50pm Cecile: thanks, Mary!
	4:51pm Cecile: NO
	4:52pm Parq: Pledge because if you don't, FMU will wink out and the replacements station will play plenty of Billy Joel.
	4:52pm Adrian in London: Oh, Gawd, not Gordon again!!!
	4:54pm βrian: I always confuse the mononymous musicians. Which is Sting? Which is Bone-O? Ach!
	4:57pm modchick65: This song is gorgeous. I would listen to it over and over again, too.
	4:58pm Gaylord Fields: A DAVID GATES PRODUCTION!!! Oh, Sheila, you know how to make my ears and heart happy!
	4:58pm JasonInBoston: MARGARET MANDOLPH! RUSS T IN THE HOUSE! One of the RT holy trinity 1. I Never Dreamed / 2. She Don't DeserveYou / 3. I Want to Make You Happy - in my top 10 of all time!
	4:58pm The Contessa: Miss B! This is so dreamy
	4:58pm Adrian in London: Oh, this is such a lovely song.
	4:59pm Rob Kopp: Single of the year!
	4:59pm Gaylord Fields: Russ Titelman + Dave Gates = pop perfection!
	4:59pm Cecile: this song right here is one I would listen to over and over. I like weirder chord changes.
	5:00pm The Contessa: Nice to see mention of Russ Titelman on this show
	5:00pm dale: david gates produced that. pretty sure it's THAT david gates.
	5:01pm dale: gaylord beat me to it.
	5:01pm Gaylord Fields: @dale: You bet your sweet bippy it is!
	5:01pm The Contessa: Tammi, Tammi, Tammi, you're killing us. Thanks Sheila
	5:01pm Cecile: David Gates was in the Magic Band with Beefheart. Wrote a great song for him, too, Moonchild.
	5:02pm dale: matt warwick played a nice early charlie rich tune, but he attributed it to 'charlie' on the playlist. 70s british charlie?
	5:03pm The Contessa: 60%
	5:04pm Rob Kopp: @Cecile: Moonchild of Captain Beefheart by David Gates? I didn't know that!
	5:04pm steve: what kind of monster would shelve that song... it nearly had me in tears!
	5:05pm Cecile: yes, Robb, that very song!
	5:05pm P-90: MOMS ARE THE BESTEST!
	5:05pm Cecile: steve, ITA. Haunting and wonderful.
	5:06pm Cecile: ANNIE!
	5:07pm JtotheK: margaret mandolph - new to me, dig it!
	5:08pm Adrian in London: JUNIORE!!!!
	5:11pm Cecile: is marabou/marabout a kind of pun? I don't understand French well enough to know.
	5:12pm Rob Kopp: At the moment Zig zag wanderer by Captain Beefheart is no. 1 in the monthly top 10 of Platenclub Utrecht. That's a club of 7 Dutch record collectors (6 others and me) and since about 2 months Hans owns a copy of the very rare Dutch pressing of that single.
	5:14pm Rob Kopp: Beside collecting records we're also releasing them! So far 11 vinyl singles/EP's. See www.platenclubutrecht.nl
	5:17pm Cecile: Jeff Lynne is often mocked, but he's done a hell of a lot of good music.
	5:18pm The Contessa: If you watch documentaries about him you'll find that Jeff Lynne is a genius!
	5:19pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: @C'ec: People put down his Production a lot - but it's probably a case of it now & then being applied to the wrong material - a mark of its' distinctiveness, in a way.
	5:20pm dale: nanette fabray is her aunt, despite the different spellings.
	5:20pm Cecile: I haven't watched any Lynne documentaries, but being a huge Move and ELO fan, I'm pretty convinced.
	5:21pm The Contessa: Oh God, @Cecile he's just SO clever!
	5:21pm dale: i LOVE how you went out with 'sheila take a bow' last week. so perfect!
	5:21pm Cecile: yeah, RevRab. Like T-Bone Burnett de-fanging every roots rock group in the 80s. Except Lynne's production tended to be way more energetic and strange when it took missteps. You have to applaud the risks.
	5:23pm Rob Kopp: Shelley Fabares also recorded a couple of P.F. Sloan tunes (my favourite American songwriter after Bob Dylan). Her best effort to me is See ya 'round on the rebound.
	5:23pm dale: 'call me' by blondie?
	5:24pm Cecile: Shelley is pretty dang cool. She's also done a gargantuan amount of work helping Alzheimer's research.
	5:24pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: If a guy from Band A is the Producer of Band B - there's a good chance it will sound a lot like Band A.
	5:25pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...that's basic anyhow...
	5:25pm The Contessa: If everyone listening just gives $10 or even $5, Sheila can reach her next massive total. Please give!
	5:26pm Cecile: play some Ozzy! I'll pledge for Ozzy.
	5:27pm Rob Kopp: @Cecile: about T-Bone Burnett: What a coincidence. Today I heard his fabulous cover of Roky Erickson's song "Nothing in return" again for the first time in about 10 years.
	5:27pm PsychopathJimFields: Simply an observation, not a criticism: I've heard more ABBA on this station in the last year than have since the '70s. 1-800-989-9368
	5:28pm Cecile: Rob, I prefer him as an artist for sure.
	5:28pm Adrian in London: All these people in London: I think I need to organise a SBB get-together.
	5:30pm Rob Kopp: @Adrian: When you do, I'll be there
	5:30pm The Contessa: @Adrian in London, I'm there!
	5:30pm PJ: I'm digging the Big Star vibe of this arrangement of With a Little Help
	5:31pm Adrian in London: @MrPsychopath: I normally listen to moody ambient drone but for three hours on a Friday night it's pop pop pop all the way!
	5:32pm Tommy in Neversink: If you haven't pledged to Sheila B we are sending ICE agents to your residence..not the Feds ..just guys who will fill the ice trays you neglected to fill ....you will be so embarrassed ...so why not pledge and avoid that humiliation
	5:32pm The Contessa: Half an hour to go. We can't let Sheila down listeners. Just chip in!
	5:32pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Lovely Rita - when are you free to take some tea w/ me?
	5:35pm modchick65: My goodness, what is happening in that studio?
	5:35pm The Contessa: Everyone! Last week and this week, Sheila B has raised more than 20 thousand of your American dollars!! Pledge to get her to the total before she implodes
	5:37pm PsychopathJimFields: Adrian in London: I had the pleasure of telling Sheila in person how much I enjoy her show earlier in the week
	5:38pm modchick65: I wish SBB people in Brooklyn could meet up. That would be fun.
	5:38pm dale: next year i'm spreading my pledges out - i wanna win some booty.
	5:38pm modchick65: FILTHY BURT BACHARACH. YESSSSSSSSSSSS
	5:39pm The Contessa: @mod, you know you want to come to London. Join our London faction
	5:39pm dale: her 'american folk songs' is simply brilliant.
	5:39pm Adrian in London: @MrPsychopath:Lucky you!!
	5:41pm Cecile: this isn't that filthy, it's kind of witty.
	5:44pm Adrian in London: Meanwhile, on Twitter I'm busy encoring witch-house artists to tune in and pledge…
	5:44pm Rob Kopp: And Mr. T wants to forbid this kind of music from Iran?
	5:44pm P-90: Mehrnoosh is kinda groovy. Also sounds like something that would be delicious spread on pita.
	5:46pm Jeez: Adrian, you are the light of my life!
	5:47pm Matt in Hillsborough: rude!
	5:48pm The Contessa: Yeah, rude dude!
	5:48pm Cecile: wow, Jeez. Anyone who gets people to pledge is OK with me.
	5:50pm Rob Kopp: You're surely not
	5:53pm Rob Kopp: Sounds like Roadrunnner by The Modern Lovers: radio on, radio on, radio on
	5:57pm modchick65: @Contessa I've always wanted to live in London. I'm a big Anglophile. It's hard to meet people to hang out with in NYC.
	5:58pm The Contessa: Congratulations Sheila and Jesse! Great show, many dollars raised! Sheila you are a star! xx
	5:59pm modchick65: Congrats SBB!!
	5:59pm Rob Kopp: Bye everyone. And congrats SheilaB.
	5:59pm P-90: Congratulations Sheila, Jesse, everyone
	5:59pm Ken From Hyde Park: Boom boom bye! Have a good Hoof 'n' Mouth!
