YOUNG, BROWNE, RUSH TO SPEAK AT ROCK HALL CEREMONY

Neil Young, Jackson Browne and the two talkative guys in Rush will take on the role of inductors at this year’s Rock and Roll Hall of Fame ceremony in April.

Young will induct Pearl Jam, a band he toured and recorded with in the mid-1990s. Browne will speak up for Joan Baez; most recently, the two performed his “Before the Deluge” at her 75th birthday celebration concert.

And Rush’s Geddy Lee and Alex Lifeson will heap praise on Yes. Rush was among the first to congratulate Rick Wakeman, Jon Anderson & company via social media, tweeting “YES... the Rock Hall finally got it right!”

No word yet on who will be inducting ELO, Journey or Tupac Shakur. The ceremony is 4/7 at Barclays Center in Brooklyn.
