XM Satellite Radio's Americana channel, X Country (ch 12), will be featuring a special show all about our favorite herb: marijuana. That’s right, the "420" show is an annual tradition over at X Country, and it's one that spotlights our favorite country-rock songs all about the ganj.
Some of the songs from the show will include: Commander Cody's “Down To Seeds and Stems Again,” Cross Canadian Ragweed's “Americana Rhymes With Marijuana,” and Dash Rip Rock's “Let's Go Smoke Some Pot,” just to name a few songs of the hour long set (there were others... but I forgot).
Ironically, the "420" show will debut during the week of April 16th (yes, if I'm reading that right, they're celebrating 420 even before 4/20). But keep that bowl packed, because there will be encore replays of the "420" show throughout the week.

Sweet just some more awesome XM programming.
...X Country talking about marijuana... I'm going to slowly back away from my radio...
Oh my, oh my. One of my favorite channels. I dont smoke as much now as i used too. But thanks to this i will once again celebrate "the holiday".
Seriously? Do we need to celebrate drugs on a country station? Do we need to celebrate drugs at all? Have a little more class, XM. This isn't Sirius (yet)
But... But... Marijuana is illegal and makes you commit murder!!!

Wow, Tim - you need to lighten up. It's just weed. Stop buying the government "pot is evil" line of crap and do a little research. Where do you think the inspiration for some of the music you listen to came from?
And you might just want to cancel XM right now, because I guess you didn't know Lee Abrams (you know, the head honcho of music at XM) is known to be a MAJOR weed smoker. His own personal jet even bears the numbers 101 - after XM's "The Joint". I guess that means he has no "class" because he chooses to relax with the most useful plant on the planet instead of the "approved" but more dangerous alcohol or prescription pills.
Seriously, read up about the politics of why pot was made illegal, or named "marijuana", it'll blow your mind. You don't have to smoke it but knowing the truth is itself rewarding.
