Don’t forget about The Mars Volta. Both Omar Rodriguez Lopez and Cedric Bixler-Zavala are 5’8″ I’m pretty sure Juan Alderete is too. Omar and Cedric’s afro add a an inch or two visually,haha, with hair maybe 5’10″ haha, but not really.

The same people that think shorter people are less valuable are the same kind of primitives who call black people niggers and think women don’t deserve equal rights. It is truly disgusting how shorter people are made to feel by truly ignorant insensitive savages.

The 54-year-old AC/DC guitarist has played the instrument since he was five. And he’s dressed in a schoolboy uniform the whole time. It’s the perfect way to get people to ignore your adolescent height: just dress like a kid.

good one hahah

Being short is one of the few things I’ve never hated about myself. Great article, Danny. Talent has nothing to go with height or looks…..Doesn’t seem, though, like there are many 6 foot 7 rock stars….and don’t forget that the woman are probably mostly under 5 foot 8 inches, too!

Add Rick Derringer to this list. I’m not exactly sure how tall, or short he is, but when I met him, I was a few inches taller, and I’m only 5’10″.
Like you say, some of the short guys sure make up for it with talent!!! Prince will blow you away with his guitar skills.
