It's always nice to know when one rock legend is a fan of a fellow massive rock legend. It's like the love of music isn't a thing isolated to the laymen, it can be for the big stars too.

So, who's the latest rock star to show his love for a fellow rocker? None other than the boss himself, Bruce Springsteen.

Friday night (Feb. 7), Springsteen opened up his Perth, Australia, concert with a rousing cover of AC/DC's "Highway To Hell." Springsteen tackled the track with little flare or fanfare, instead opting to take it straight on.

His rasp perfectly substituted AC/DC's original lead singer Bob Scott's vocals, whom Springsteen was paying tribute to with the cover. Scott, who passed away in 1980, was raised near Perth, and "Highway To Hell" was his last effort with AC/DC.

Springsteen is currently touring the world in support of his latest studio album, High Hopes, which debuted in America on Jan. 14.
