MANHATTAN — The Boss will be turning 125th Street into Thunder Road.

Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band are set to rock the Apollo Theater on March 9, the rock legend announced Thursday via Twitter — his first-ever gig at the famed Harlem venue.

The concert, which follows the release of his new album, "Wrecking Ball," on March 6, will air live on SiriusXM Radio's E Street Radio station.

Tickets are only available to Sirius customers and further details are available on the Apollo's website.

The band is also scheduled to play the Izod Center in the Meadowlands on April 3 and April 4, before a pair of shows at Madison Square Garden on April 6 and April 9 and a gig at Newark's Prudential Center on May 2.
