Springsteen to induct U2 into Rock and Roll Hall of Fame

Get the smelling salts! We nearly fainted when we heard that none other than The Boss himself — Mr. Bruce Springsteen — will be helping to induct U2 into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Springsteen will be providing the induction speech honoring U2′s career at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction ceremony in New York City on March 14.

In 1999, Bono provided the speech for Springsteen’s induction into the prestigious music foundation.
