Tiny Tim's wedding on Johnny Carson.

A nice man who entertained us with song and humor. RIP!

I remember cracking up watching him sing “Tiptoe Through the Tulips”.

Honey

There ain’t no such thing as half gay

That’s a wishful thinking canard promulgated by English boarding school queers in denial who joined MI-6 in the Cold War.....and subsequently sold us out

He was not faking. He really was that weird. Harmless guy.

In highschool i earned a 3 day suspension for the unauthorized broadcast of Tiptoe thru the tulips to a gym full of people during a basketball game.

RIP. Tiny Tim looked and sounded weird. His appearance on early 70’s tv shows was weird, like viewing a car accident. He should have prayed more and worry about fames less.

Twenty years ago I owned a sound and lighting company in the Northeast. I got a call from Tiny Tim's management to provide sound and lighting for a gig he was doing in Rhode Island. The joint was owned by mobsters.

I set up the sound and lights in the afternoon then returned to work the show later that evening. When I returned to the club about 1/2 an hour before show time, the club was very sparsely populated.

Around 9:30pm Tiny Tim took the stage and started with "Tiptoe Through the Tulips." Within two minutes the club owner, someone straight out of the Sopranos, walked up to me behind the sound board. He was pissed. He looked at me and said, "What the f*ck is this sh*it?" Apparently when he booked Tiny Tim he had no idea how "unique" he was. Lol!

Then there's the story of a John Sebastian gig I did during which a similar Sopranos character came up to me during the show saying he wanted to "Smash that f*ckin' guitar over his head."

Good times!

I remember Tiny Tim growing up as a child. He was quite the novelty act. Offstage however, seemed to be very intelligent and knowledgeable about recorded music going back to the early 1900s. He was an avid collector of both old records and sheet music.

Weird "Al" Yankovich definitely channels Tiny Tim in appearance, especially since around 1999 when he shaved his moustache and grew his hair out like Tiny Tim. Yankovich doesn't hit the notes quite as high though.

I’ve been interested in Tiny Tim, since Laugh In.

[Ge0ffrey]

His live performance of The Ice Caps Are Melting to a group of children is classic.
