A US rock star went completely undetected as he travelled to a gig in Scotland last week.

The icon is on his UK tour and was making the journey between Birmingham and Glasgow for a show at the famous Barrowland Ballroom.

And unlike most top singers who might have private jets or chauffeur driven vehicles he hopped on an Avanti Train.

He wrote on Instagram: ‘Traveling by train again from Birmingham England to the show in Glasgow Scotland today. So nice to be able to travel this way between gigs. Scottish crowds are so unbelievably energetic too, it makes me proud of my father’s ancestry.

‘The crowd was on fire tonight and was so great to play a historical venue in the Barrowland Ballroom.

‘The Mrs. and I took pH๏τos of each other on the train and old swanny got a pH๏τo of the security camera too.
