CLEVELAND, Ohio - Howard Stern took to the airwaves Monday morning to give an honest take on his preparation for Saturday's Rock & Roll Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony at Public Hall.

Stern will present longtime friend Jon Bon Jovi and his band for induction, and the mega-popular radio host is stressed out about it.

It's been well documented that Stern doesn't like to travel anywhere. So he admitted the trip to Cleveland is stressing him out. Though, Stern said, he "Couldn't say no" to Bon Jovi.

"I met them when they were first starting out," said Stern. "I just always had a great feeling for all of them and always was rooting for them."

Stern's relationship with Bon Jovi has been a rollercoaster ride. Yet, he said knowing how much the induction means to Jon Bon Jovi is weighing on him.

In fact, Stern spent all day Friday working on his speech, recording it and listening to it back. This should make for interesting viewing when Stern takes the stage at Public Hall on Saturday.

Stern also admitted he's afraid he might get sick of ahead of the ceremony, which he chalked up to his fear of public speaking and getting "neurotic."
