Lady Antebellum just announced that they will be touring with Bruce Springsteen as his opening act for London's 2012 Hard Rock Calling Music Festival, which will be held at London's Hyde Park on July 14.
Band member Charles Kelley could hardly contain his excitement for getting to share the same stage as the Boss:
"It's Springsteen . . . there is no entertainer we look up to more than him. I'm going to be like a little kid at Christmas watching his show. It's the biggest honor for us to be invited to play this festival . . . the entire lineup is awesome!"
Other acts at the festival include Paul Simon, who will perform 1986 album, Graceland, in its entirety.
The Hard Rock Calling Music Festival runs from July 13 to July 15. More performers will be announced in the coming days.
