Pretenders to be Inducted into Rock and Roll Hall of Fame by Neil Young
Paul McCartney inducted by Neil Young, March 1999
SEE 2005 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame UPDATE.
Neil Young will induct The Pretenders into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame reports Bad News Beat via Associated Press Newswires.
The 20th annual ceremony will be held March 14 at the Waldorf Astoria in New York City. Highlights will be televised March 19 on VH1.
Neil inducted former Beatle Paul McCartney into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 1999 and Jimi Hendrix in 1992.
Neil's getting pretty good at inducting legends into the Hall of Fame.
So will Neil jam this year after the awards? We can only hope given some of his previous jams like the one with Led Zeppelin in 1995.

Cool! I didn't know Neil had inducted both Hendrix & McCartney. He shouldn't have problem doing the Pretenders I suspect.

I love Neil Young! However, his induction of the Pretenders was pathetic. It was as if he wasn't interested or we all were keeping him from a much needed nap. His jam with the Pretenders was ridiculous as well - he looked like a fool.
