Bruce Springsteen will induct the E Street Band into the Rock And Roll Hall of Fame, it has been confirmed.
The ceremony, which will take place at Brooklyn's Barclays Center on April 10, will also see Michael Stripe induct Nirvana and Rage Against the Machine guitarist Tom Morello induct Kiss, Rolling Stone reports.
The Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame has announced its inductees for 2014.
Following the committee vote, Peter Gabriel, Hall And Oates, Cat Stevens, Linda Ronstadt, Nirvana and Kiss will be inducted, while The E Street Band will be given the Award For Musical Excellence. Artists are eligible for induction 25 years after the release of their first record, meaning Nirvana, who released debut album 'Bleach' in 1989, have been nominated at the first possible opportunity.
Could be wrong about this, but I think the track I posted and tweeted most often last year was “Sunshine, No Shoes” by the Philadelphia band, Spacin’: I’m going to add it again after the jump. Spacin’, to recap - though you can follow this link to a blog about them - are a project fronted by Jason Killinger, a spin-off from a longish-established Philly psych band called Birds Of Maya; BOM’s amazing “Ready To Howl” album got a belated UK release last year on Agitated.
New Order closed the first night of Open'er Festival in Gdansk, Poland last night (July 4) with a 90-minute greatest hits set, culminating in an encore of Joy Division classics.
The appearance marked the Factory records legends' first ever appearance in Poland and had particular poignancy as Joy Division were initially named after Polish capital city, Warsaw.
