At his Army induction he was 183cm tall - that works out to exactly 6 foot 1
inch.

6ft. That he wore lifts in his shoes, and performing 'boots' while on stage, to
appear taller then he was. I think they also said he wore lifts around the house
as well. Maybe he had lifts in his socks during the army measurement. lol

Elvis himself used to say he was 6 ft. tall when interviewers would ask, and
the man's never been born who understated his height, so I think we can dismiss
the Army measurement. Some height and weight charts to this day specify "height
with 2-inch heels." Isn't that silly? Shoes come in all heel heights, and how
much trouble is it to remove one's shoes, anyway?
But I also don't think he was under 5'11. I think he was under 6 feet for sure,
but just under, maybe 5'11 or 5'11 1/2. I've heard people swear he was 6'1" or
even 6'2" but it was those lifts and those heels on his boots.
How tall was Vernon, does anyone know? Before Vernon got older and started to
shrink, I think he was taller than Elvis. I once asked Patsy Presley Gambill
how tall Gladys was, and she said about 5'7".
At one of Elvis' homes there is a framed list of Elvis' tailor measurements
taken in March, 1962, and also, in parentheses, the same measurements taken in
January, 1957:
Elvis Measurements
Top of hip to floor/pants 42" - January '57
Neck 15 3/4 [15 1/2]
Chest 42 [42]
Waist 34 [32]
Sleeve 31 1/2 [31 1/2]
Inside Seam 17 1/2 [17 1/2]

Why do you feel Elvis needs you to pay tribute by imitating him and why you
feel the word has a burning desire to see you make an ass of yourself?

Elvis was only 5ft 6?? But he had such long fingers. My mom wants to
know the distance from the arch above his thumb to the tip of his index
finger. Does anybody have that information? My guess is 7 inches.....

Yes, quite frankly I do. I have a problem with people that have to steal
someone else's personality in order to fill void in their life. In essence
making an ass of themselve's at Elvis' expense...

Yeah, that's what they all say. If you quote "plan to have my own career some
day" then why don't you do that instead of being a hack of someone else's
career?

You seem like an ok guy David, so you may just want to walk away from
this place.
There are a ton of people here who like nothing better than to fling mud
on anyone they don't like for whatever reason, and ETA's are right up
there at the top of the list for them. You'll get no end of shit about
impersonating Elvis here.
Myself, I really don't give two hoots about ETAs. If they're amazingly
good they're still nowhere near as good as Elvis. And most of them are
REALLY bad.
At some point, and I'm not saying where, it switches from a "tribute" to
being a lampooning that does more to hurt Elvis' image than to keep it
alive.
Anyway, that's my warning to you. Others won't be so kind.
Good luck with your own career doing your own (selected) music.

Bill Burk
At his Army induction he was 183cm tall - that works out to exactly 6 foot 1
inch.
Ask Bill.
>>
We took photos of Elvis at his Army induction -- barefooted and stark-ass
naked except for his jockey shorts.
And in one he was being measured and you could DISTINCTLY see that he stood
5-11 3/4, which anyone would round off to 6-0 (or 180 cm).
And Lil Elvis measured . . . (better not get into that).

I am 5'tall, no inches (wish I did have a little more height) and when
I met Elvis, the top of my head hit about 4 inches under his chin.
And based on comparisons between my husband and myself that would put
Elvis at about 6' (hubby is 5'10"). Not scientific I know,but that's
my frame on reference.

Sure David,
That's exactly what good ole CT and Dog would like you to do... Just
walk away.
You see it must be certain that CT in his musical career has never
played cover songs and god forbid any band he may have been in tried
to play them exactly like the record. IMHO any musician that rags on
another musician for his musical ability or talent is not much of a
human being. I once bought a Travis Tritt Cd and took it back because
he had a negative song about Billy Ray Cyrus on it.
And for Dog the only instrument he has ever played, well let's not go
there.
In answer to your original question, when I last spoke to Ed Bonja,
long time Elvis photographer and nephew of Colonel Parker, he told me
Elvis was a little over 5 ft 11 in. and wore 2" lifts in his shoes. A
person can shrink from 1958 to the early 70's no doubt.
Keep on singing your songs David, just don't do a clown act when you
sing songs in Elvis' style. There are a lot of good ETA's in this
world and a lot of people enjoy their shows. Don't let the jerks get
you down. Even Elvis had to put up with a lot of mockery and put
downs in his career. And although he was the greatest entertainer and
singer to ever grace our world he was not all original himself. Case
in point, listen to "That's when your heartaches begin" and then
listen to the original version by the Ink Spots. And don't forget that
Dean Martin like style to many of his recordings. He also stole very
heavily from Black Blues and Gospel music.
Take care and keep on singin...
E.
David

Hi Larry
Bill Burk said 183cm (barefoot) - that equates to 6'1". Now, as for
foot size, Bill Belew is wrong! Elvis had pretty big feet - everyone
knows that. He was like size 11.
Anyways, hope you're well!
Hadji Derabertis
was just questioning the accuracy of who wrote it. Im not saying mr Burk was wrong either. Moreso the 3rd
party that printed it. It's just that I have read many times, by diffent people (some who were very close to
the king) that Elvis was under 6 feet by about an inch or so, and that he wore lifts to make him appear
atleast 6ft tall.
This one guy in the Stones newsgroup jumped all over me once for stating that Jagger was just a little guy.
This guy freaked out man ( don't get me wrong, I'm not saying you freaked out) but this guy jumped all over
me. Saying he was 6ft 1 inches tall. But I tell you, I stood 3 feet away from Jagger on a couple of
diffrent occasions, and nooo wayyyyy was he taller then me. Jagger only came up to about my chin. The guy's
like 5ft 6..tops!
Jason~~
Hadji Derabertis
it was 180. Maybe what you read was a mis-print.

Understood Jas
Besides what I've read (which is only recently), it has been a common belief
for as long as I can remember that the figure was 6'1". He even mentions it
on one of the live boots - Elvis is talking about the mic stand being setup
for a guy who is 6'3 1/2", and Elvis says he is 6'1 1/2".
Now - as for Jagger, I met him in 1988, and sure enough he was around 5 1/2
feet. I got to meet him when I was meeting with Joe Satriani.

head? lol. My buddys and I were talking about Micks size( not penis size, I know
there's lots of witty people on here, who would have been all over that line
lol) last night . This was brought up because when Angus Young stood beside
him on stage, he was about a half a foot shorter then Mick. My buddies also
commented that Mick had a big head. My two friends I was with last night both
met him at a bar the night before one of their shows here in Toronto a few years
back. They both requested, along with another couple of friends, the tune 'Live
with me'. Later on, as they were leaving the bar, they said to Jagger " Hey
Mick, don't forget 'live with me' tommorrow night".
Then the next night, during the concert, Jagger said " now this next song is
for the boys at the bar"..... then they broke into 'Live with me". How cool is
that?

Greetings.
Just thought I'd pop in and read this thread.
I don't know why Belew listed Elvis' shoe size as 9.
For many years either Richard Davis or I bought Elvis' boots for him and
they were always size ten and a half.
Granted he needed a little extra room for the lifts but not that much.
I wear a size 9 and Elvis' feet were longer than mine.

I hope all went well with your project and the storm there in Memphis didn't

Hardy's was big here in Calif in the 60's and 70's I had no idea that was where
you got Elvis' boots but I sure knew it was the only place I could find things
similar to what he wore. Even bought my only pair of Beatle boots there.
Sure wish I had kept those.

Ah cum on Bill,
Everyone knows you measured little Elvis ! :)
Regardless of height.. You know the first time my older nephew who
turned me on to Elvis saw him in concert told me he wasn't as big as
we thought my thoughts were yeah right. Damn when I saw him he was
almost as big as God.
But now that you mention it, he had really long fingers, big bones,
large head for most. It almost makes you wonder. How big was little
Elvis anyway.....
Guess now's the time for Sybil Shepard to speak up!

Quite the opposite. Too bad they don't make them big enough to go over your
mouth.

Of course you're welcome to kiss my ass, but before doing so you should
really re-read my email.
My only point was that ETAs are excessively abused here, and it's not a
pleasant place for them to hang out. And why would anyone wish that
kind of abuse on a guy who seems like he's pretty nice?
On second thought, however, I'd say as long as he filters a few of the
more rabid ETA-haters, he might have an ok time of it.
In the email you rant about, I go on to give my personal opinion on
ETAs, which is... and I quote... "Myself, I really don't give two hoots
about ETAs".
Meaning... I'm pretty live and let live about it. If you want to do it,
fine. Doesn't bother me.
Plenty of people out there doing plenty of types of music I don't like.
I just change the channel.

I never knew anyone could practice sex, wouldn't that be what masturbation is
for?

Many would say yes, others not so much.

I'm in an all-acoustic project, working on my second solo CD for Fall
release, doing all the backup playing for a local folk artist's CD, and
doing some pick-up soundtrack work for educational clips. The last is
really fun because I get to write orchestral arrangments instead of just
the usual "bass, drums, guitar, vocals".
Still haven't found a way to make a living at it, but I'm still working
on it.
