After the show he spent well over an hour in the foyer of The Lowry theatre meeting fans, posing for photos and signing autographs. He may be one of the shortest men in rock and roll, but he's awesome!
He's guitarist with The E Street Band, Neil Young & Grin if you don't know who I'm on about

I certainly know of him but can't say I've sought out any of his music but it sounds like it was a good night.
I like the idea of small venues where the artist can interact with the fans before or after the show without charging a small fortune in the process.
