Lindsey at Nick Lowe performance

[michelej1]

Just out of curiousity, how tall is LB? Maybe those who have met him or seen him up close could shed some light on this. I always figured he was about my height, 5'11", but then I saw a picture of him somewhere where he looked kinda short, like 5'6" (I hope I didn't offend anyone).

I've wondered this too. Because Stevie is so short and he towers over her (even when she has heels on) I think there is a perception that he is taller than he is. He is as tall as everyone in FM, except Mick, but maybe John is short as well.

Plus, in the early days when Lindsey had all of that hair, he looked even taller.

I know Stevie refers to Jimmy as "little one" and he is definitely small, but I always wondered about "Smile at You" and if she perceives Lindsey as being physically small too.

I'm from Detroit and remember I always used to think Isiah Thomas was very small, but then I saw him in person and he was huge. He was just small in comparison to the other basketball players on the court with him.

Reverse thing with George Burns. By the time I saw him later in his life, making the talk show rounds, he was obviously very short, but then I saw old videos of the Burns & Allen show and he didn't look short at all, because everyone on the show was the same height as he was or shorter.

It's all relative. I think Stevie greatly contributes to the fans' assessment of Lindsey's height. Michele
