Psst....I think Gowan corner's the market on the Lollipop Guild (no offense to the president of the Larry Gowan fan club) :wink:

Mr. Shaw...can claim the title of the Little Yellow Sprout :twisted:

I think one can say with confidence that whatever his "official" biography lists as his height, you can subtract two inches and get his real height. :wink:

Bugsy
Change your hairdo. Change your name.
Congratulations! You're still the same.

Bugsy, so you think he's really 5'4" ? LOL

Looking at my pictures, I'm the same height as Tommy and Jack Blades and I think they're the same height.

No offense, but aren't MOST musicians on the shorter side?

I know those 2 Kiss guys (Gene & Paul) are tall, maybe it's those boots - LOL I think David Coverdale is tall too (?).

I think 5' 6" is pretty close. I'm 5'7" and I have some pictures next to Tommy where I'm a little taller then him, but I also am wearing heels one to two inches. My shock when I meet rock stars is how TINY they are! So many of them are so skinny and small framed. Ricky Phillips and Gowan both have the tiniest butts!

OMG, I was in total shock too on how tiny they are too!!! I have a picture of me with Jack Blades and Michael Lardie, they're both the same height as me and I'm kind of tall.

LOL, most of the skinny ones have the tiniest butts!!! I thought Gowan has a tiny butt too, but it was hard to tell from all that spinning - LOL

Rock music was invented for short guys (TS, Jack Blades, Prince, etc) and ugly guys (Jagger, Tyler, Ozzy, Alice, Plant, Eminem, Tommy Lee, etc) so they could get laid

ok - but you know what I'm saying. If the 6th guy had been chuck I think I'd have been able to figure it out. I'm not THAT much of a noob :)
