WASHINGTON, Dec. 13 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- XM Satellite Radio, the nation's leading satellite radio service with more than 5 million subscribers, today announced that Bob Dylan will host a new music show exclusively for XM, marking the first time the music legend has hosted a radio show. The weekly hour-long music show will feature an eclectic mix of music hand-selected by Dylan. In addition, Dylan will offer regular commentary on music and other topics, host and interview special guests including other artists and will take emails from XM subscribers. The show will debut in March 2006 on XM's deep album rock channel Deep Tracks (XM channel 40 or DirecTV channel 829).

"Songs and music have always inspired me. A lot of my own songs have been played on the radio, but this is the first time I've ever been on the other side of the mic," said Dylan.

I Love XMU witch is their Indie station but the DJ’s really know what is up. Also learning about Hip-Hop through this show called “Subsoniq” with actually talking DJ’s. They were talking about getting “lit-up” the other day, crazy but cool.

The Sirius guys are broadcasting from all over the planet. I don't see why being on the road should prove to be such a challenge.

I'm sure George Clinton would offer up a few hours just for a taste of the rock.

Not saying it ain't possible. I just don't see Bob Dylan putting up with that kind of shit.

This is pretty cool, although I have to think someone will boot these shows somewhere online. If I commuted in any fashion to work, I might pick up XM but, not at this juncture. Still, this is pretty cool.
