I only glanced at this post at first, and I thought you said "I'm 90". I was thinking "Isn't it sweet that Japan have fans of all ages?" Then the penny dropped. :oops: I am such an idiot.

OK, well the tape measure could be wrong too! I dunno - does it really matter? Tall or short they produce fantastic music and we all love 'em for it so ... :-D

Is Sylvian really 5ft 8in ??
I met him twice in 1993, and i very nearly missed him, cos i couldnt believe how little he was. Im not big ...prolly 5ft 10in, but i seemed to tower over him.

I met him in 1987 and I'm 5'6'', I would say 5'8'' is about right.

No, I can't say I did... I was like "Hello David, dkf hjdklfdklf hdklsfkljfkjd" and it was only thanks to Debi Zornes that I didn't make a complete fool of myself!!! :lol:

I would certainly say that all the lads are in the 5'8" -5'9" area, I'm 6'2" and towered over all of them too...
