From Billboard.com :
Van Zandt Taking 'Underground Garage' To TV
By Jeff Vrabel, Jacksonville, Fla.
E Street band guitarist Little Steven Van Zandt's Underground Garage radio
show has become a big hit, having branched out to 130 stations in 190
markets nationwide. But it may soon be coming to a new medium.
"We're pretty much all over the radio, so I think it's time for it to go to
TV and get that synergy going," Van Zandt tells Billboard.com. "There's one
version that was like the old Howard Stern or Don Imus thing, but not quite
as literal. We'd be doing the show, but in a more surreal fashion, adding
more production elements and having more fun with it -- a little more
craziness than just a camera sitting there."
Other ideas include a more elaborate "bands, go-go girls and interviews"
approach, and one not far from "American Bandstand." "We're hoping to have
something on certainly by the first of the year," he says.
