If everyone listening just gives $10 or even $5, Sheila can reach her next massive total. Please give!

@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.

Simply an observation, not a criticism: I've heard more ABBA on this station in the last year than have since the '70s.

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
