Robert Plant is 6'1". I never thought that question would become relevant.

After 15 questions (one more), I'll start giving hints.

Shouldn't count as a guess then.

Let me know if/when you want to make one of those a guess.

So (theoretically) if I were to ask a question - something like "Is the person on my non-guess thought list, would that be a legitimate Question?

Yes, I would accept that as a question.

But I'll only give a yes or no answer.

No.

1. Male.
2. Alive.
3. Less than 6 feet tall.
4/6/9. Not known for involvement in politics, sports or acting.
5/8/11 . British.
7/10/13. Singer / not a guitarist / known for having been in a rock band.
12. Well known by 1979.
14. (incorrect guess Ozzy Osbourne).
15. Not on Doug 7878's list.

Incorrect Guesses:
Robert the Bruce (Jamiet99uk).
Mick Jagger (Doug7878).
Rod Stewart (Szpoti).
Ozzy Osbourne (Szpoti).
Robert Plant (Damo666).
Freddie Mercury (Doug7878).
Elton John (Doug7878).
Peter Gabriel (Doug7878).
Joe Cocker (Doug7878).
Cat Stevens (Doug7878).

Here's your hint. Try to narrow down the genre. With the possible exception of Peter Gabriel, all of those guesses are what I would call Classic Rock. Think outside the box a bit.
