I've seen a few posts lately on "How old is Phish?" and I was just wondering if
anyone knew the exact heights of the band members. E-mail me.

I'd say Phish is approximately 23 feet, 4 inches tall.

Well, if you lump them all together, I'd say they are 22' 7" --

Page and Trey are about as tall as I, perhaps 1 inch taller, making them
5'11"ish (I don't think they'd hit 6').. Fish is about 5'3", and Gordo is
5'6"..

I don't have any hard evidence toback this up, but I'd be very surprised
if either Trey or Page was 5'11". I'd say 5'9" tops.

I'd be glad to answer your question, but I need to clarify exactly what
you're asking.

1. In feet or meters?

2. Separate, or standing on each others' shoulders to form a human pyramid?

3. With or without Viking helmet?

...I wouldn't be a bit surprised.

Trey is no taller than I am, maybe shorter, and I stand at
5' 10" during a full-moon. His wife and kids are pretty short too :)

I read that they are actually midgets wearing some type of stilt/prosthesis.

Yup, or thereabouts. But he packs a lot of punch into that small frame, and at
5'3 is statuesque compared to at least one person in the Phish organization.

Can't believe I'm replying twice in this silly thread,

Page is definitely not 5'11". I'm about that, and he's a bit shorter than
I am, unless he's grown since February.

And he is the tallest in the band.
