Yes, and the worst bit is that "Little Steve" walks around the venue 
with a sweaty paisley rag on his head looking around to see if anyone is 
looking at him. For a moment you're not sure if he's some straggler from 
Coney Island or if he is indeed the wee man of Springsteen/Sopranos 
fame. He's such a wanker. On both nights I was at the Zombies, members 
of the record collector mullet bridgade were hotfooting it to have a 
chin wag with the bedraggled one. Furthermore, "Little Steve" seems to 
find it impossible to walk by anyone without placing his sticky little 
paws on one's shoulders, hips, bottom etc.
