OT: Shortest & tallest frontmen

Postby ArnelRox » Mon Nov 26, 2007 12:00 pm

Who are the shortest & the tallest frontmen of bands? Yeah I know dumb question.

I was gonna say JSS might be the tallest but I remembered Ric Ocasek of The Cars is 6'4". Was anyone taller?

How about the shortest? Will it be Arnel at 5'3" or is there someone shorter?

Tall = Dee Snider or Paul Stanley

Short = Ronnie James Dio (who is the most amazing frontman of all at his age)

Prince is by far the shortest!!! I think he's like 4'11" or something like that! He's also a little bitch, but that's a totally different story! LOL!!!

Eric Martin is pretty short too. I think he's about Neal's height.

I like to sit out on the front porch, where the birds can see me, eating a plate of scrambled eggs, just so they know what I'm capable of.

I'm 6'1", and he was a good 3" taller than me. Maybe more. Don't laugh, bad hair day. :lol:

That's a good pic Rick. :wink: I'm 5'7" and I had my 4" going-to-concert-and-wanna-make-sure-I-can-see heels on. Yeah, he's gotta be at least 6'4", maybe taller.

No he's not. SB is 6'4" at the most. One or two places have cited him 6'3".
But totally not 6'6". Prince or RJD are probably the shortest.
Steven Tyler is pretty short too, but I don't think he's as small as Prince.
ST is shorter than Perry though (unless Perry was wearing heels in that pic... LOL!).

No way. Tyler is about 5'9". I've stood next to him & I can judge height when I'm next to someone, short as I am :-)

Yeah I forced him to sign the Skrapp Mettle CD. :lol:

Took some doing though. I'm not much for autographs but that was a must have.

Yuck, anyone want to buy that Journey hockey jersey I have on?

Is that right? He looked pretty short in all the videos and pictures when he was in Mr. Big. Was everyone else in the band just that much taller than him?

Sebastian Bach is pretty tall & not bad on the eyes & ears
As for the the Onk..Prince
He's the runt of the litter
He may be a musical genius
but I don't get him & wouldn't want too.
he sounds like a narcissistic sadist scumbug.
