This thread has been around since 2003 and no one has yet mentioned Angry Anderson or Udo Dirkschneider?!

I once saw Neil Hannon and Beck side by side - how i chortled from my lofty perch; think Hannon was slightly the taller though.

yeah it's quite hard to believe than no one mentioned.... Angry Anderson?

Chan Marshall? She's about five-eight, isn't she? I, er, unfortunately tend to notice these things when I meet people. (It's a pain in the neck.) She's hardly short, unless the world has gone mad.

So above average height - which I don't believe is the usual criterion for being described as short

No mention of Leo Sayer yet it seems. Around 1.50 or so.

according to Wikipedia he's 1.50 metres, but he looks smaller to me.

Angry Anderson is the midget from Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome (Master of Master Blaster). He got the role due to his big success as singer of the band Rose Tattoo.
Not really THAT obscure...

Jeez, I've been meaning to check out Rose Tattoo for years, and I'm pretty sure no one ever mentioned to me that the frontman was a midget. The hard rock world is a weird place for political correctness.

Angry Anderson is 5'1".

How is Ronnie James Dio not mentioned on here?
― EZ Snappin, Tuesday, 26 May 2009 15:14 (fifteen years ago) link
He always gets over-looked.

Surely Iggy Pop's song 5 foot 1 is about his actual size?
― Duke, Tuesday, 26 May 2009 17:12 (fifteen years ago) link
The green lighting in that vid makes the Igg look a bit like the Incredible Hulk

Angry Anderson = bloke who did the song that Scott and Charlene got married to in Neighbours. Was a bit surprised to find out at a much later date that he had a whole actual career that wasn't that.

The guys from AC/DC are all pretty short.
