	♥ 3:11pm djsheilab: Hey michael z
	♥ 3:11pm Andrew_in_WI: Fever Ray did a great cover of this!
	♥ 3:11pm βrian: FDA finally authorizes for kids.
	3:11pm tripod: Took off work. Sheila in real-time. What a treat!
	3:12pm Joe B: let's see some Hellraiser love for Sheila B! we can make the station goal during this show!
	♥ 3:12pm Handy Haversack: Fond Friday greetings, Sheila and most sophisticated of Boom Boomers!
	♥ 3:13pm djsheilab: Hey Handy H, tripod, Brian, Andrew_in_WI + Joe B!
	♥ 3:13pm Passaic River Blues: @Brian: it's official--nice!
	♥ 3:14pm djsheilab: It looks like we're only $1800 away from WFMU's goal! Will it happen during my show?!!!
	♥ 3:14pm Gurldoggie: I saw Laurie Anderson at a small venue in Seattle in 2018 performing "All the Things We Lost in the Flood." A transcendent show, just Laurie, her laptop, a keyboard and a violin. It was a retrospective of her life and art, but it was like no other show I could describe. A beautiful and intimate experience.
	♥ 3:15pm djsheilab: Gurldoggie—That sounds magical. I've only seen her DJ, not perform.
	♥ 3:15pm Hughie Considine: Greetings to all. Happy to report that my Sophisticated Boom Boom T-shirt just arrived and it is extremely stylish and subtly textured.
	♥ 3:15pm tim from washington: What Joe B said! It's scientifically proven that DJ Sheila B can bring down the house so let's put the Hellraiser over the top during Sheila's show! Pledge if you haven't yet.
	♥ 3:16pm slugluv1313: greetings, DJ Sheila B.! Sophisticates! Laurie Anderson <3 <3 <3 she gave a talk at Rutgers (Mason Gross School of the Arts?) when i was at Douglass, waaaaaay back in the late 70s -- STILL kicking myself for missing that i did, however, get to see her at Prospect Park some years ago -- truly felt like being transported to another realm
	♥ 3:16pm Passaic River Blues: Mabe Fratti is one my top WFMU-supplied discoveries of late. Cello, electronics, beautiful voice, atmospherics, textures; what's not to like?
	3:16pm syddog: this is really nice
	♥ 3:17pm Gurldoggie: Exactly. It was magical. And speaking of beautiful and intimate, the mood of today's music is quietly intense!
	♥ 3:17pm Rob Kopp: Hello Sheila, hello Friday friends. Oops. Forgot the time.
	♥ 3:17pm Ken From Hyde Park: Ozzy would surely appreciate a $666 Full Satan Pledge and it will only take a couple of those to reach the goal. <pentagram emoji>
	♥ 3:18pm slugluv1313: @Bimbus Bambus -- amazing! reeeeally missing Lou -- for some reason his death is hitting me really hard this year
	♥ 3:18pm Andrew_in_WI: ...speaking of Fever Ray...
	♥ 3:19pm HyperDose: Hey gang! Loved your Ozzy story in the email blast, Sheila. Love seeing the more human side of people who are in the public eye.
	♥ 3:19pm djsheilab: Hey slugluv1313, Passaic River Blues, Rob Kopp, syddog + HyperDose!
	♥ 3:20pm djsheilab: I enjoyed sharing the Ozzy story with you all. It may be my most treasured photo.
	3:21pm steve j: For anyone interested, Laurie Anderson has an exhibiton on now at the Hirshhorn in DC until 7/31/2022
	♥ 3:21pm Passaic River Blues: @Gurldoggie: Roy Edroso, one of my favorite political satirist writers, recently lauded Laurie Anderson's "The Weather" exhibit at the Hirschhorn in D.C. and completely re-evaluating his youth dislike of her work as "respectable avant-garde." My only thought was good, but what took you so long, man?
	3:21pm Tom from Stirling: Is that a mellotron? Loves the sound of the mellotron. Lovely musics to start the show.
	3:22pm Rick G: @gurldoggie: which Seattle venue? I just saw Yo La Tengo at the Neptune last week. First concert for me in a long time. Fantastic show!
	♥ 3:23pm chris in the redwoods: hi, Sheila and Sophisticated Ones! hope you are all well! really enjoying this opening set, Sheila!
	♥ 3:24pm djsheilab: Hey steve j, thank you Tom from Stirling + chris in the redwoods!
	♥ 3:27pm rx scabin: I love this song. Mood.
	♥ 3:29pm Passaic River Blues: Wow.
	3:29pm dreamyandseedy: listening while driving! though i am stopped now 🙂
	♥ 3:29pm Michael 98145: ( great late-night archive )
	♥ 3:30pm tim from washington: To quote our hostess with the mostest, this Tammy St John has so much drama!
	♥ 3:30pm Gurldoggie: Hi Rick - The very same! The Neptune! I howled when they announced hey would no longer show movies there, but it's become one of the best venues in town, don't you think?
	♥ 3:31pm Ken From Hyde Park: In my high-level opinion, you're a real goal-getter, Sheila!
	3:31pm don_laine: Sounds like you need some shrooms sheila
	♥ 3:31pm Passaic River Blues: These are all excellent ideas!
	3:31pm ryansterlingvirtue: Хороший совет!
	3:31pm Cooh John: Thoroughly annihilated. Thank you very much, Sheila.
	♥ 3:32pm βrian: I'm looking for a vaccine appt for Little Human, but no luck.
	♥ 3:32pm JohnEBGood: Love the show djdheilab. Tomorrow is Mischief Night in the Northeast. Be alert and ready to duck!!
	3:32pm Don F.: Steve Conte at the cutting room tonite is a rocker who uplifts everytime I see him.
	3:33pm Menlo Park: Tammy St John...so wonderful and exclusively onSBB, can't even find on Wikipedia
	3:34pm loveless: @JohnEBGood Mischief Night or Cabbage Night? Hummmmm.
	♥ 3:34pm Gurldoggie: Magic mushrooms and a whipping is some strong medicine. Hope that works out for you!
	3:34pm malaisie: It sounds like you're preparing to hibernate in rejuvenating, restive darkness
	♥ 3:35pm emilie s: i know i want to spend my fridays 3-6pm on this earth listening to sheila's show!
	♥ 3:35pm Ken From Hyde Park: Sometimes, you're just a twig floating down the stream. The flow takes you where it will.
	♥ 3:35pm Handy Haversack: Goalchievement is within reach!
	3:35pm yobal_1: 😁a smile for you.
	♥ 3:35pm rx scabin: Embrace the Darkness. It works.
	♥ 3:36pm JtotheK: SheilaB - your comments about record collecting -- been there. A number of years ago (6-7 years ago?) I downsized a BUNCH of my 45s. Because I wasn't playing out as often, and I didn't want a museum of 45s, they are meant to be enjoyed. Since then - I have re-procured a NUMBER of 45s I parted with. Still not playing out (now because of pandemic and because I fall asleep too early) but having them to spin at home for dance parties with the fam is fun.
	3:38pm Rick G: @gurldoggie: yes! I admit to only being there twice, both for YLT. I’m taking my son there for a rescheduled They Might be Giants show next year. Had a great dinner at Little Duck before the show.
	♥ 3:39pm djsheilab: Thank you, yobal_1 + emilie s. malaisie—I love that perspective.
	3:39pm Jocelyn: I had a very large cd collection stolen a few years ago. At first I had gratitude the records weren’t touched. Now? I’m going crazy rebuilding the cd collection I didn’t appreciate when I had it.
	3:39pm Jocelyn: I’ll think of a song, want to hear it then remember the cd was stolen
	♥ 3:40pm Guido from Cologne: Buffy! Her best album!
	3:40pm geoff: evening all. and thank you Sheila for reminding me of why I love radio.
	3:40pm Bob from Poughkeepsie: You have a great life being dj at wfmu. very fortunate to have musical knowledge like you do.
	♥ 3:41pm djsheilab: JtotheK—Yeah, I don't feel the same desire to collect and hold onto everything as I used to. But I have heard those stories of people giving away their collections only to long for it years later.
	3:41pm Lake Hiawatha Doug: I’d take mushrooms over whips, but never tried whips… so maybe I’m missing out.
	♥ 3:41pm djsheilab: Thank you, Geoff.
	♥ 3:41pm tim from washington: @Sheila - no matter what direction you head in I highly recommend hanging on to your records. As others are posting, those same records end up returning. I lost around 2000 records and the thought of some of those records still pains me.
	♥ 3:42pm HyperDose: @Jocelyn Very sorry to hear. Ebay is a lifesaver in that regard. Can't count how many 1 cent CD's I purchased off there. Many sellers are current or former DJs, so they do deals and it all ships from one place.
	♥ 3:42pm tim from washington: Man, this Buffy Sainte Marie is incredible! The cover art puts it over the top.
	♥ 3:43pm djsheilab: tim from washington—Yeah I don't think I'll be getting rid of most of my collection. Perhaps just the fluff (of which I have quite a bit).
	♥ 3:44pm JohnEBGood: In JC it's Mischief. I think they call it Devil's Night in Camden, NJ where they light things up
	♥ 3:44pm JtotheK: @myself - and yet! A few times every year I wonder ... is it time to 'unburden' myself from these? Are people going to be interested in listening to soul 45s 10, 20 years from now when many approach the 80/90 years old point? Will Northern Soul 45s that currently sell for 4 figures sell for PENNIES at that point? Shrug... I will say that visiting area record store again every so often, after not being in-store for over 12 mos is therapeutic, browsing and listening in-store. And when I do listen at home we have fun!
	♥ 3:44pm djsheilab: Jocelyn—That is SO upsetting!
	3:45pm Despeinada from Texas: Hey y’all. Has anyone read Musicophilia by Sacks? Reading it as I listen to SBB and whoa!!!!
	♥ 3:46pm pollypinocle: maybe someone is interested in this: newyork.craigslist.org... 14 bins of free vintage records (staten island) 2239 hylan blvd my grandfather has 14 bins of vintage records. he just wants them gone. you must take them all. everything from rock n roll to jazz. pick up 2239 hylan blvd. please call before picking up. leave me a message if i dont pick up. my name is richie
	♥ 3:46pm tim from washington: Now, a little pruning is a good thing, Sheila! Holy crap has this set been amazing!
	♥ 3:46pm djsheilab: Hey Despeinada from Texas. I haven't read it but Sacks is always a wonderful companion.
	♥ 3:46pm JtotheK: @SheilaB -- agreed on the FLUFF. I "found" 3 boxes of soul 45s last weekend that I thought were misc 80s new wave/synth pop but were in fact soul 45s that I hadn't looked at in who knows how long. None of my 45s are organized beyond "oh yeah I think I know where that is" and I want to alphabetize (someday) so that I can get rid of doubles and fluff.
	♥ 3:47pm djsheilab: Thank you, tim from washington!
	♥ 3:47pm djsheilab: Thanks for the info, pollypinocle!
	♥ 3:47pm Passaic River Blues: @Tim: word regarding this set. I was a little worried about the blending of "Poppies" into "Magic Is Afoot-God Is Alive" on the album, but our DJ handled that masterfully, of course.
	3:48pm -o-l-i-v-i-e-r-: Joining you all a bit late but hello :)
	♥ 3:49pm JtotheK: And! I've been reading (a lot more than I had been) these past 18 mos and am really looking forward to this book next: "Will Not Attend - Lively Stories of Detachment and Isolation" by Adam Resnick, of Dave Letterman/Get A Life/Cabin Boy. I expect to chuckle.
	♥ 3:49pm djsheilab: Oooh....donations are coming in. Thank you dear listeners! We're now only $550 away from the stationwide goal!
	3:50pm Tom from Stirling: A fine day to listen to djSheilaB wlile watching the wind blow the leaves on a grey Autumn day. Your music fits your mood, and the day as well, SheilaB.
	3:50pm Despeinada from Texas: I’m 30 pages in but I very much recommend.
	♥ 3:52pm winston legthigh: happy friday djsheilab, sophisticated boomers.
	♥ 3:52pm Rob Kopp: It has been years ago since I sold records. I had for instance everything by Pink Floyd, but when I realised I always returned to the Syd Barrett period, I sold everything after More, except for Dark side of the moon and Wish you were here. No regrets about that decision. In my schooldays I swapped a lot because I didn't have the money to buy everything. In that way I swapped a lot singles that are now rare, but I also got a lot of those back. I don't buy that much since I retired 2 years ago and don't come in Utrecht each day anymore. The place I live in doesn't have a record shop. I'm happy with what I have and only go for new records if I really like them. But I realize that must be completely different for a deejay. But don't get rid of your collection too soon, Sheila. You will regret it later.
	♥ 3:53pm tim from washington: @Passiac - We're in good hand with Sheila!
	3:53pm ?: Thanks Sheila B. Thanks for keeping it real. Myself and Paul stuck in traffic listening, again. For 31 years now. Daryl K couldn't have existed without WFMU in some ways. It's worth it when we connect. Xx Daryl and Paul.
	♥ 3:54pm Rob Kopp: Congratulations with reaching your pledge goal.
	♥ 3:54pm JohnEBGood: Go Chippie! Love these old country blues.
	♥ 3:54pm Michael 98145: Golazo! Golazo!!
	♥ 3:55pm djsheilab: Thanks Passaic River Blues + Tom from Stirling. Hey winston legthigh, olivier + JohnEBGood!
	♥ 3:55pm Ken From Hyde Park: Joe McGasko, you out there? Get ready to bring the champagne to Studio A!
	♥ 3:56pm tim from washington: Whoa! Check out the back story on the Phoung Tam release: www.sublimefrequencies.com...
	♥ 3:56pm DjLorraine: Perfect as usual Sheila B. and listeners
	♥ 3:57pm djsheilab: Thx for checkin' in, Daryl + Paul!
	3:58pm tripod: Definitely can relate to your dark mood, Sheila. In the midst of crisis over my latest career change which was inspired by one of my many mid-life crises! Weather is delightfully dreary and leaves are changing and falling. If there were Russian bathhouses in St. Louis, I’d go get whipped. Michele, such wisdom.
	♥ 3:58pm djsheilab: Ken From Hyde Park—First let's get the station to its goal. Only $550 left to go!
	♥ 3:58pm Joe McG: @Ken: I've got it right here. I'm ready!
	3:59pm Tom from Stirling: La Luz!? Mais oui.
	♥ 3:59pm rx scabin: djsheilab - There is a myth that downsizing is more virtuous. Rightsize for yourself.
	♥ 4:01pm Hoboken Pete: This song always sets my Fall / Halloween mood - not exactly sure why...
	♥ 4:01pm djsheilab: tripod—Appreciate you sharing.
	4:01pm Despeinada from Texas: Your Ghost Ohmygod!!!
	♥ 4:02pm djsheilab: Hoboken Pete—It does feel very autumnal.
	♥ 4:02pm Michael 98145: Kristin !
	♥ 4:02pm Rob Kopp: Glad you see you make the same mistake as I often do: Kirstin in stead of Kristin:-)
	4:02pm Ike: This KH was one of my 90s college radio faves. Used to spin this on the late, not-at-all-lamented 10-watter WMNJ.
	♥ 4:02pm Bas NL: Hi all! Oh my, the Hellraiser is near it's goal!
	4:03pm Tom from Stirling: La luz: the light
	4:03pm -o-l-i-v-i-e-r-: Oh man, I think I haven't heard that Kristin Hersh song in decades! Natsukashii. Love it.
	4:04pm michael z: This song has such an extraordinary chorus. “You were driving circles around me”is brilliant.
	4:05pm DarthBuddha: sublime frequencies one of those labels like finders keepers
	4:06pm Joey Vento: Hey Sheila!!! Hey everybody!!! Happy Halloween!!!
	♥ 4:07pm DjLorraine: 🙋‍♀️cooh john
	4:07pm Tom from Stirling: SheilaB made her goal!? Sheila take a, Sheila take a bow!!
	♥ 4:09pm diciassette: Against Perfection!
	♥ 4:09pm Guido from Cologne: perfection is non existant
	♥ 4:10pm Bimbus Bambus: Does the fact of the shows being archived make the pressure worse? I think it would for me. But I also like the idea of being able to come back to it, for better or worse.
	♥ 4:10pm rx scabin: Beautiful endings come from beautiful mistakes.
	♥ 4:11pm Ken From Hyde Park: I imagine it's tough developing an internal "That's good enough" filter.
	4:11pm Tom from Stirling: Yeah, don't obsess on segues so much. Starting now. Don't let perfect be the enemy of very good.
	♥ 4:11pm Jason from Houston: Good afternoon, good people and good djsheilab! Who is also a good people! ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡
	4:11pm tripod: Let it go! Cheers cheers cheers!
	♥ 4:11pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...a ♍︎Virgo perfectionist ?! I never hoird uh sucha thang ...that would be like ...I dunno - an ironic ♏︎Scorpio ? 😁
	♥ 4:12pm steveo: wonderful wonderful show today :)
	♥ 4:12pm djsheilab: Joe McGasko just walked into Studio A, changed the papers on the clipboard, and then tossed the clip board at the CD player, causing my CD to SKIP! GRRRRRRRRR.....
	4:12pm ncjay: now THAT was a segue for all time!
	♥ 4:12pm djsheilab: And he came WITHOUT champagne!
	♥ 4:13pm Vanessa Tara: howdy, folks!!!
	♥ 4:13pm Passaic River Blues: @Sheila: hahahaha
	♥ 4:13pm tim from washington: Joe! Shame on you!
	♥ 4:13pm Guido from Cologne: ... shame on Joe ... speaking of perfection ...
	♥ 4:13pm JeremyB: Holy cow! The station goal is just about there!
	4:14pm Potato Salad: I can't believe your CD players don't have skip protection! Even my 90s Walkman had 3 seconds.
	4:14pm Tom from Stirling: 10 pushups for Joe.
	♥ 4:14pm -Ken: Joe did what?! Was he having another one of his office supply rage blackouts?
	♥ 4:14pm JohnEBGood: Columbo episode indeed!
	♥ 4:14pm djsheilab: We need more jazzy, gentle, completely unfrightening Halloween songs like this one.
	♥ 4:14pm Vanessa Tara: wow! a halloween carol
	♥ 4:15pm winston legthigh: segue schmegue. we love u djsheilab.
	♥ 4:15pm rx scabin: Did Joe McGasko change your goal?
	♥ 4:15pm djsheilab: He needs to be contained, Ken!
	♥ 4:16pm slugluv1313: LOVE LOVE LOVE to you DJ Sheila B.!!! and omg i can so totally relate -- my Dad was an accountant AND a Virgo, and i definitely inherited some of that -- sometimes it is a good thing, other times it drives me totally batsh*t crazy, hah! nowadays there is SO much pressure to be PERFECT -- even though perfection simply does not exist
	♥ 4:16pm winston legthigh: thats the premise to catch 22 rx scabin.
	♥ 4:16pm steveo: $299,888 raised of $300,000
	♥ 4:17pm -Ken: @rx, since Sheila made her goal, her widget on this page is now showing the station goal. It's confusing, I know.. on the list to fix
	♥ 4:17pm rx scabin: @djsheilab-Perfection is a process, not an end.
	♥ 4:18pm Bimbus Bambus: only $42 left!!

	♥ 4:31pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: FMUvians - this has been the 'silent' fundraiser - but I will say once more - here's another one during which I've still had no income. (When I have had any @ all - I done Swag For Life to keep the IV Drip going.) So - when you support this cultural cornerstone (whatever its idiosyncrasies) - you do it for all of us - & I cubscout dropout's honour appreciate you for it.
	♥ 4:31pm JohnEBGood: No Gang Boss Nooooo!!!
	♥ 4:31pm The Oscar: Been busy working, but Murder By Death and Belladonna of Sadness! If anyone on here hasn't seen the latter, it's AMAZING, and very much in keeping with this show!

	4:32pm tripod: Long live WFMU!
	♥ 4:33pm djsheilab: Thank you, Michael! Was a treat not to agonize over them for once :)
	♥ 4:33pm Ken From Hyde Park: A segue into "Crazy Train" from the Prince of Darkness for the day's occasional male would be pretty different.

	4:41pm ncjay: @tim from washington she explained it when the album was released - R is the 18th letter of the alphabet, N is the 14th. Rhythm Nation -> R N -> 1814
	♥ 4:42pm tim from washington: @ncjay - thanks!
	♥ 4:42pm G: @tim. Quoth wiki: "While discussing the origin of the title "Rhythm Nation", Jackson stated she first uttered the phrase during a conversation with her producers. "I thought it would be great if we could create our own nation" adding that it would be "one that would have a positive message and that everyone would be free to join." She based the idea on the prevalence of various youth groups and organizations that are formed as a means of creating a common identity. The usage of the number "1814" represents the year the national anthem "The Star-Spangled Banner" was written."
	♥ 4:43pm winston legthigh: gentlemen prefer hanes. thanks dj, gotta run. happy halloween to all.

	3:11pm tripod: Took off work. Sheila in real-time. What a treat!
	3:12pm Joe B: let's see some Hellraiser love for Sheila B! we can make the station goal during this show!
	♥ 3:12pm Handy Haversack: Fond Friday greetings, Sheila and most sophisticated of Boom Boomers!
	♥ 3:13pm djsheilab: Hey Handy H, tripod, Brian, Andrew_in_WI + Joe B!
	♥ 3:13pm Passaic River Blues: @Brian: it's official--nice!
	♥ 3:14pm djsheilab: It looks like we're only $1800 away from WFMU's goal! Will it happen during my show?!!!
	♥ 3:14pm Gurldoggie: I saw Laurie Anderson at a small venue in Seattle in 2018 performing "All the Things We Lost in the Flood." A transcendent show, just Laurie, her laptop, a keyboard and a violin. It was a retrospective of her life and art, but it was like no other show I could describe. A beautiful and intimate experience.
	♥ 3:15pm djsheilab: Gurldoggie—That sounds magical. I've only seen her DJ, not perform.
	♥ 3:15pm Hughie Considine: Greetings to all. Happy to report that my Sophisticated Boom Boom T-shirt just arrived and it is extremely stylish and subtly textured.
	♥ 3:15pm tim from washington: What Joe B said! It's scientifically proven that DJ Sheila B can bring down the house so let's put the Hellraiser over the top during Sheila's show! Pledge if you haven't yet.
	♥ 3:16pm slugluv1313: greetings, DJ Sheila B.! Sophisticates! Laurie Anderson <3 <3 <3 she gave a talk at Rutgers (Mason Gross School of the Arts?) when i was at Douglass, waaaaaay back in the late 70s -- STILL kicking myself for missing that i did, however, get to see her at Prospect Park some years ago -- truly felt like being transported to another realm
	♥ 3:16pm Passaic River Blues: Mabe Fratti is one my top WFMU-supplied discoveries of late. Cello, electronics, beautiful voice, atmospherics, textures; what's not to like?
	3:16pm syddog: this is really nice
	♥ 3:17pm Gurldoggie: Exactly. It was magical. And speaking of beautiful and intimate, the mood of today's music is quietly intense!
	♥ 3:17pm Rob Kopp: Hello Sheila, hello Friday friends. Oops. Forgot the time.
	♥ 3:17pm Ken From Hyde Park: Ozzy would surely appreciate a $666 Full Satan Pledge and it will only take a couple of those to reach the goal. <pentagram emoji>
	♥ 3:18pm slugluv1313: @Bimbus Bambus -- amazing! reeeeally missing Lou -- for some reason his death is hitting me really hard this year
	♥ 3:18pm Andrew_in_WI: ...speaking of Fever Ray...
	♥ 3:19pm HyperDose: Hey gang! Loved your Ozzy story in the email blast, Sheila. Love seeing the more human side of people who are in the public eye.
	♥ 3:19pm djsheilab: Hey slugluv1313, Passaic River Blues, Rob Kopp, syddog + HyperDose!
	♥ 3:20pm djsheilab: I enjoyed sharing the Ozzy story with you all. It may be my most treasured photo.
	3:21pm steve j: For anyone interested, Laurie Anderson has an exhibiton on now at the Hirshhorn in DC until 7/31/2022
	♥ 3:21pm Passaic River Blues: @Gurldoggie: Roy Edroso, one of my favorite political satirist writers, recently lauded Laurie Anderson's "The Weather" exhibit at the Hirschhorn in D.C. and completely re-evaluating his youth dislike of her work as "respectable avant-garde." My only thought was good, but what took you so long, man?
	3:21pm Tom from Stirling: Is that a mellotron? Loves the sound of the mellotron. Lovely musics to start the show.
	3:22pm Rick G: @gurldoggie: which Seattle venue? I just saw Yo La Tengo at the Neptune last week. First concert for me in a long time. Fantastic show!
	♥ 3:23pm chris in the redwoods: hi, Sheila and Sophisticated Ones! hope you are all well! really enjoying this opening set, Sheila!
	♥ 3:24pm djsheilab: Hey steve j, thank you Tom from Stirling + chris in the redwoods!
	♥ 3:27pm rx scabin: I love this song. Mood.

	3:29pm dreamyandseedy: listening while driving! though i am stopped now 🙂
	♥ 3:29pm Michael 98145: ( great late-night archive )
	♥ 3:30pm tim from washington: To quote our hostess with the mostest, this Tammy St John has so much drama!
	♥ 3:30pm Gurldoggie: Hi Rick - The very same! The Neptune! I howled when they announced hey would no longer show movies there, but it's become one of the best venues in town, don't you think?
	♥ 3:31pm Ken From Hyde Park: In my high-level opinion, you're a real goal-getter, Sheila!
	3:31pm don_laine: Sounds like you need some shrooms sheila
	♥ 3:31pm Passaic River Blues: These are all excellent ideas!
	3:31pm ryansterlingvirtue: Хороший совет!

	3:32pm Don F.: Steve Conte at the cutting room tonite is a rocker who uplifts everytime I see him.
	3:33pm Menlo Park: Tammy St John...so wonderful and exclusively onSBB, can't even find on Wikipedia
	3:34pm loveless: @JohnEBGood Mischief Night or Cabbage Night? Hummmmm.
	♥ 3:34pm Gurldoggie: Magic mushrooms and a whipping is some strong medicine. Hope that works out for you!
	3:34pm malaisie: It sounds like you're preparing to hibernate in rejuvenating, restive darkness
	♥ 3:35pm emilie s: i know i want to spend my fridays 3-6pm on this earth listening to sheila's show!

	3:35pm yobal_1: 😁a smile for you.
	♥ 3:35pm rx scabin: Embrace the Darkness. It works.
	♥ 3:36pm JtotheK: SheilaB - your comments about record collecting -- been there. A number of years ago (6-7 years ago?) I downsized a BUNCH of my 45s. Because I wasn't playing out as often, and I didn't want a museum of 45s, they are meant to be enjoyed. Since then - I have re-procured a NUMBER of 45s I parted with. Still not playing out (now because of pandemic and because I fall asleep too early) but having them to spin at home for dance parties with the fam is fun.
	3:38pm Rick G: @gurldoggie: yes! I admit to only being there twice, both for YLT. I’m taking my son there for a rescheduled They Might be Giants show next year. Had a great dinner at Little Duck before the show.
	♥ 3:39pm djsheilab: Thank you, yobal_1 + emilie s. malaisie—I love that perspective.
	3:39pm Jocelyn: I had a very large cd collection stolen a few years ago. At first I had gratitude the records weren’t touched. Now? I’m going crazy rebuilding the cd collection I didn’t appreciate when I had it.
	3:39pm Jocelyn: I’ll think of a song, want to hear it then remember the cd was stolen
	♥ 3:40pm Guido from Cologne: Buffy! Her best album!
	3:40pm geoff: evening all. and thank you Sheila for reminding me of why I love radio.
	3:40pm Bob from Poughkeepsie: You have a great life being dj at wfmu. very fortunate to have musical knowledge like you do.
	♥ 3:41pm djsheilab: JtotheK—Yeah, I don't feel the same desire to collect and hold onto everything as I used to. But I have heard those stories of people giving away their collections only to long for it years later.
	3:41pm Lake Hiawatha Doug: I’d take mushrooms over whips, but never tried whips… so maybe I’m missing out.
	♥ 3:41pm djsheilab: Thank you, Geoff.
	♥ 3:41pm tim from washington: @Sheila - no matter what direction you head in I highly recommend hanging on to your records. As others are posting, those same records end up returning. I lost around 2000 records and the thought of some of those records still pains me.
	♥ 3:42pm HyperDose: @Jocelyn Very sorry to hear. Ebay is a lifesaver in that regard. Can't count how many 1 cent CD's I purchased off there. Many sellers are current or former DJs, so they do deals and it all ships from one place.
	♥ 3:42pm tim from washington: Man, this Buffy Sainte Marie is incredible! The cover art puts it over the top.
	♥ 3:43pm djsheilab: tim from washington—Yeah I don't think I'll be getting rid of most of my collection. Perhaps just the fluff (of which I have quite a bit).
	♥ 3:44pm JohnEBGood: In JC it's Mischief. I think they call it Devil's Night in Camden, NJ where they light things up
	♥ 3:44pm JtotheK: @myself - and yet! A few times every year I wonder ... is it time to 'unburden' myself from these? Are people going to be interested in listening to soul 45s 10, 20 years from now when many approach the 80/90 years old point? Will Northern Soul 45s that currently sell for 4 figures sell for PENNIES at that point? Shrug... I will say that visiting area record store again every so often, after not being in-store for over 12 mos is therapeutic, browsing and listening in-store. And when I do listen at home we have fun!
	♥ 3:44pm djsheilab: Jocelyn—That is SO upsetting!
	3:45pm Despeinada from Texas: Hey y’all. Has anyone read Musicophilia by Sacks? Reading it as I listen to SBB and whoa!!!!
	♥ 3:46pm pollypinocle: maybe someone is interested in this: newyork.craigslist.org... 14 bins of free vintage records (staten island) 2239 hylan blvd my grandfather has 14 bins of vintage records. he just wants them gone. you must take them all. everything from rock n roll to jazz. pick up 2239 hylan blvd. please call before picking up. leave me a message if i dont pick up. my name is richie
	♥ 3:46pm tim from washington: Now, a little pruning is a good thing, Sheila! Holy crap has this set been amazing!
	♥ 3:46pm djsheilab: Hey Despeinada from Texas. I haven't read it but Sacks is always a wonderful companion.
	♥ 3:46pm JtotheK: @SheilaB -- agreed on the FLUFF. I "found" 3 boxes of soul 45s last weekend that I thought were misc 80s new wave/synth pop but were in fact soul 45s that I hadn't looked at in who knows how long. None of my 45s are organized beyond "oh yeah I think I know where that is" and I want to alphabetize (someday) so that I can get rid of doubles and fluff.
	♥ 3:47pm djsheilab: Thank you, tim from washington!
	♥ 3:47pm djsheilab: Thanks for the info, pollypinocle!
	♥ 3:47pm Passaic River Blues: @Tim: word regarding this set. I was a little worried about the blending of "Poppies" into "Magic Is Afoot-God Is Alive" on the album, but our DJ handled that masterfully, of course.
	3:48pm -o-l-i-v-i-e-r-: Joining you all a bit late but hello :)
	♥ 3:49pm JtotheK: And! I've been reading (a lot more than I had been) these past 18 mos and am really looking forward to this book next: "Will Not Attend - Lively Stories of Detachment and Isolation" by Adam Resnick, of Dave Letterman/Get A Life/Cabin Boy. I expect to chuckle.
	♥ 3:49pm djsheilab: Oooh....donations are coming in. Thank you dear listeners! We're now only $550 away from the stationwide goal!
	3:50pm Tom from Stirling: A fine day to listen to djSheilaB wlile watching the wind blow the leaves on a grey Autumn day. Your music fits your mood, and the day as well, SheilaB.
	3:50pm Despeinada from Texas: I’m 30 pages in but I very much recommend.
	♥ 3:52pm winston legthigh: happy friday djsheilab, sophisticated boomers.
	♥ 3:52pm Rob Kopp: It has been years ago since I sold records. I had for instance everything by Pink Floyd, but when I realised I always returned to the Syd Barrett period, I sold everything after More, except for Dark side of the moon and Wish you were here. No regrets about that decision. In my schooldays I swapped a lot because I didn't have the money to buy everything. In that way I swapped a lot singles that are now rare, but I also got a lot of those back. I don't buy that much since I retired 2 years ago and don't come in Utrecht each day anymore. The place I live in doesn't have a record shop. I'm happy with what I have and only go for new records if I really like them. But I realize that must be completely different for a deejay. But don't get rid of your collection too soon, Sheila. You will regret it later.
	♥ 3:53pm tim from washington: @Passiac - We're in good hand with Sheila!
	3:53pm ?: Thanks Sheila B. Thanks for keeping it real. Myself and Paul stuck in traffic listening, again. For 31 years now. Daryl K couldn't have existed without WFMU in some ways. It's worth it when we connect. Xx Daryl and Paul.
	♥ 3:54pm Rob Kopp: Congratulations with reaching your pledge goal.
	♥ 3:54pm JohnEBGood: Go Chippie! Love these old country blues.
	♥ 3:54pm Michael 98145: Golazo! Golazo!!

	♥ 3:57pm djsheilab: Thx for checkin' in, Daryl + Paul!
	3:58pm tripod: Definitely can relate to your dark mood, Sheila. In the midst of crisis over my latest career change which was inspired by one of my many mid-life crises! Weather is delightfully dreary and leaves are changing and falling. If there were Russian bathhouses in St. Louis, I’d go get whipped. Michele, such wisdom.
	♥ 3:58pm djsheilab: Ken From Hyde Park—First let's get the station to its goal. Only $550 left to go!
	♥ 3:58pm Joe McG: @Ken: I've got it right here. I'm ready!
	3:59pm Tom from Stirling: La Luz!? Mais oui.
	♥ 3:59pm rx scabin: djsheilab - There is a myth that downsizing is more virtuous. Rightsize for yourself.

	♥ 4:01pm djsheilab: tripod—Appreciate you sharing.
	4:01pm Despeinada from Texas: Your Ghost Ohmygod!!!
	♥ 4:02pm djsheilab: Hoboken Pete—It does feel very autumnal.
	♥ 4:02pm Michael 98145: Kristin !
	♥ 4:02pm Rob Kopp: Glad you see you make the same mistake as I often do: Kirstin in stead of Kristin:-)
	4:02pm Ike: This KH was one of my 90s college radio faves. Used to spin this on the late, not-at-all-lamented 10-watter WMNJ.
	♥ 4:02pm Bas NL: Hi all! Oh my, the Hellraiser is near it's goal!
	4:03pm Tom from Stirling: La luz: the light
	4:03pm -o-l-i-v-i-e-r-: Oh man, I think I haven't heard that Kristin Hersh song in decades! Natsukashii. Love it.
	4:04pm michael z: This song has such an extraordinary chorus. “You were driving circles around me”is brilliant.
	4:05pm DarthBuddha: sublime frequencies one of those labels like finders keepers
	4:06pm Joey Vento: Hey Sheila!!! Hey everybody!!! Happy Halloween!!!
	♥ 4:07pm DjLorraine: 🙋‍♀️cooh john
	4:07pm Tom from Stirling: SheilaB made her goal!? Sheila take a, Sheila take a bow!!
	♥ 4:09pm diciassette: Against Perfection!
	♥ 4:09pm Guido from Cologne: perfection is non existant
	♥ 4:10pm Bimbus Bambus: Does the fact of the shows being archived make the pressure worse? I think it would for me. But I also like the idea of being able to come back to it, for better or worse.
	♥ 4:10pm rx scabin: Beautiful endings come from beautiful mistakes.
	♥ 4:11pm Ken From Hyde Park: I imagine it's tough developing an internal "That's good enough" filter.
	4:11pm Tom from Stirling: Yeah, don't obsess on segues so much. Starting now. Don't let perfect be the enemy of very good.
	♥ 4:11pm Jason from Houston: Good afternoon, good people and good djsheilab! Who is also a good people! ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡
	4:11pm tripod: Let it go! Cheers cheers cheers!
	♥ 4:11pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...a ♍︎Virgo perfectionist ?! I never hoird uh sucha thang ...that would be like ...I dunno - an ironic ♏︎Scorpio ? 😁
	♥ 4:12pm steveo: wonderful wonderful show today :)
	♥ 4:12pm djsheilab: Joe McGasko just walked into Studio A, changed the papers on the clipboard, and then tossed the clip board at the CD player, causing my CD to SKIP! GRRRRRRRRR.....
	4:12pm ncjay: now THAT was a segue for all time!

	♥ 4:16pm slugluv1313: LOVE LOVE LOVE to you DJ Sheila B.!!! and omg i can so totally relate -- my Dad was an accountant AND a Virgo, and i definitely inherited some of that -- sometimes it is a good thing, other times it drives me totally batsh*t crazy, hah! nowadays there is SO much pressure to be PERFECT -- even though perfection simply does not exist

(When I have had any @ all - I done Swag For Life to keep the IV Drip going.) So - when you support this cultural cornerstone (whatever its idiosyncrasies) - you do it for all of us - & I cubscout dropout's honour appreciate you for it.
	♥ 4:31pm JohnEBGood: No Gang Boss Nooooo!!!

	4:31pm michael z: Well I think your segues are pretty spectacular Sheila.
	4:32pm tripod: Long live WFMU!
	♥ 4:33pm djsheilab: Thank you, Michael! Was a treat not to agonize over them for once :)
	♥ 4:33pm Ken From Hyde Park: A segue into "Crazy Train" from the Prince of Darkness for the day's occasional male would be pretty different.

	4:41pm ncjay: @tim from washington she explained it when the album was released - R is the 18th letter of the alphabet, N is the 14th. Rhythm Nation -> R N -> 1814
	♥ 4:42pm tim from washington: @ncjay - thanks!
	♥ 4:42pm G: @tim. Quoth wiki: "While discussing the origin of the title "Rhythm Nation", Jackson stated she first uttered the phrase during a conversation with her producers. "I thought it would be great if we could create our own nation" adding that it would be "one that would have a positive message and that everyone would be free to join." She based the idea on the prevalence of various youth groups and organizations that are formed as a means of creating a common identity.
