Last.FM at the Linux Command-Line!

I was apt-get'ing the last.fm application from the Ubuntu repos. I've started using it again.
I like to search via command-line:
$ apt-cache search lastfm
And so I noticed shell-fm, a command-line last.fm:

shell-fm - console based player for last.fm radio streams

Initially I couldn't get it working. I googled and found some some instructions and compiled v0.7 from here:  http://github.com/jkramer/shell-fm/downloads

There is a wiki too to help installation, usage, and config: http://shell-fm.wikidot.com

Obligatory screenie: (playing personal radio, banning an artist, etc)
Come join the group: http://www.last.fm/group/shell-fm
