Clearly the rakester had that text on his clipboard and pasted it into the comments box double quick. Given that he had all day to think what he was going to put, it’s a pitiful indictment of his imagination. It’s probably pro using a different username.
Yes.
Seattle Sounders FC played their first MLS match last night. I’m a season ticket holder, and I was at the game, standing and chanting/singing/cheering in the supporters’ section behind the south goal.
One is not a clone, he is a robot from the future on a mission to pollute our ears with dastardly awful music. It’s the most evil scheme ever imagined!
They look like the kind of young guys the mormons send door-to-door round our neighbourhood. All fresh white shirts, squeaky clean-cut white guys every time. Kinda creepy.
Okay, sorry. I had no idea, never having heard of Papa Lazaroo. Just seemed horribly uncanny that you knew my name, but it just turns out to be a coincidence. Strange.
“Is your name not Dave?”
“No, it’s Michael Baldwin.”
“That’s going to cause some confusion. Mind if we call you Dave?”
(Conversation from the FAILosophy Department at the University of Woolloomooloo.)
I know what you’re thinking. “Did he fire five singers or only four?” Well, to tell you the truth, in all this excitement I kind of lost track myself. But being as this is a pinkslip, the most powerful document in the world, and would blow your head clean off, you’ve got to ask yourself one question: Do I feel lucky? Well, do ya, punk?
it seems to be a bald-win
as far as I can (or want google research) the quartet was picked up by don baldwin. but no doubt it’s a fake of course. it says made in china at the back
Wake up, little Jamie, wake up
Wake up, little Jamie, wake up
We’ve both been sound asleep, wake up, little Jamie, and weep
The movie’s over, it’s four o’clock, and we’re in trouble deep
Wake up little Jamie
Wake up little Jamie.
The fifth person is obviously a guest artist, bandleader, or something like that. The “Three Tenors” recordings have four people on them. (One is the conductor, Zubin Mehta.) Duh.
okay so i’d like to say that the couriers is a quartet b/c Don Baldwin who is my grandfather, back row on on the right, was the manager who occasionally sang with them.
heres my theory: one is actually a conjoined twin but cant sing so he just tags along (i think its bottom middle and bottom right, although they look nothing alike)
This group was a popular gospel quartet that began in the mid 50’s. and ended up singing backup to some pretty big names in the gospel and country music realms. They were originally two sets of brothers raised in the Assemblies of God church. Over the years, the make up of the quartet changed, and so the fifth person shown on the cover is their manager, who often filled in for one of the parts when personnel changed. So, not so much a fail for them as a fail for those who failed to do research into why there were five people shown on the cover. Ironically, the group eventually reduced down to a trio. http://www.festivalofpraiseconcerts.com/Posters/couriers.pdf
“Quartet” designates that there are four singers. The extra member in the picture is most likely the non-singing piano player. In that genre of music, it’s not unusual for permanent musicians to be included in pictures of singing “quartets.” This is NOT a fail.
American Quartets consist of 4 singers-Bass, Baritone, Lead, and a Tenor. The extra person(people) you see are musicians. In this case its a pianist. You Brit Jack Asses!
When are your left hand? FRIST! I mean FIRST! pwnt. In ya face. In ya butt. In ya mouf hole. Boomshakalaka!!!!
dang,at the rate they going at in that book, they are really gonna joy the world…or at least the bed.
Book? VHS.
… or cassette tapes.
It’s an ellipse-shaped LP.
And a polygonal DVD! At no extra charge, you get one singer free!
maybe he’s just an ugly producer… I think it’s the one in the middle.
Pianist…
The quartet sings
Actually, a “quartet” refers to how many PARTS there are, not how many players. i.e. a woodwind quartet can have 10+ people. so it’s not a fail.
Failing fail.
um, when I sing in a choir that has 4 parts (like an SSAA choir)
I don’t say I’m in a quartet if there are 12 people in the group. . .
Matthew is write i have sang in southern gospel quartets for many years and their are four parts and a piano player
Grammer FAIL
it should say
“Matthew is RIGHT. I have SUNG in southern gospel quartets for many years and THERE are four parts and a piano player.”
Vinyl methinks
8-track
Blue gay disc
bulging artery?
Yeaaaaaaaaaaaa. Maybe one guy jumped into the pic at the last second? I hate people who do that!
Try…. Sheet Music…. Duh
wow what a dumbass. that is a record or a lp as some people call them not a book. dipshit
I rake your comment very highly.
Clearly the rakester had that text on his clipboard and pasted it into the comments box double quick. Given that he had all day to think what he was going to put, it’s a pitiful indictment of his imagination. It’s probably pro using a different username.
I hear, hear that!
You hear who?
what?
I bake your dessert very piely.
i fake your cassets very shily

What spelling mistake?
BEST RESPONSE E-V-E-R!
Can I have your pie??
Can I drink your milkshake?
Boomshkalaka?! Who the hell says that anymore…
Wtf?…
I think this is a ‘bakers’ quartet..
drats you totally beat me to it
Do not use single quotation marks for emphasis.
Maybe it’s well-known and all that, but: What was your username referring to yesterday? And today? A football match, I presume?
Yes.
Seattle Sounders FC played their first MLS match last night. I’m a season ticket holder, and I was at the game, standing and chanting/singing/cheering in the supporters’ section behind the south goal.
Thank God for wireless!
Quartet: now with 25% more!!
One of the guys was the piano player
Four shalt thou not count.
Five is right out!
Amen!
Go and change your armor!!
One,
Two,
Four!
they are indeed four. one of them is a clone, easy to see. But which one?
They’ve all got the same hair near enough.
One is not a clone, he is a robot from the future on a mission to pollute our ears with dastardly awful music. It’s the most evil scheme ever imagined!
The one in the grey suit.
The one in the grey tie.
The one with the wholesomely cheesy grin.
The repressed one.
“Repression to the World” – an all-time favorite!
Written and performed by the Dictator Quartet – Adolf, Joseph, Mao, Pol and Saddam.
The fifth guy is just the fluffer.
You’ve got a one-track mind Mookie.
And yet… you just can’t help but reply, can you?
*admires both Mookie’s mind and its delightfully monophonic track*
I think you meant to say polyphallic instead of monophonic.
No, he’s only got one.
He brings the “joy to the world”.
You accidenty your juice.

They look like the kind of young guys the mormons send door-to-door round our neighbourhood. All fresh white shirts, squeaky clean-cut white guys every time. Kinda creepy.
Maybe the Mormons already invented cloning?
I don’t know about that, but I can prove they invented breastfeeding through brick walls.
I would like to see your proof!
uh excuse me?? how? i would like to no..since i AM mormon myself
know?
no.
now.
This is not a Fail.
Comprehension fail.
The Couriers won’t tolerate thought criminals. It’s Room 101 for you.
Umm… is the word on the bottom right side “Striptease”?
That’s a bit exreme.
But a bit correct.
Try ‘Scripture’ – Reading FAIL
Try ‘joke’ – Humor FAIL
Try ‘minimum wage’ – Education FAIL
Try ’shiney’ – Distraction FAIL
Try ‘mim wage’ – Previous fail reference fail.
But why would you choose scripture over striptease?
They both can make you uncomfortable, just in different ways!
That’s Cat’shit!
I wish!
Hullo. (50.4 – you know, just btw)
*SQUEEZE* Good morning DrB
*GROUP SQUEEZE* Hi boys!
*SQUEEZE* Good morning Mookie!
Yawwwwwwwn.

OMG. How did I get here?!?
Is there coffee here?
Want some cognac with that?
*pours*
Ahhh. Thanks! Happy First Day of Spring!
Reason enough to drink at 6am!
The Mookie and the Boys Quartet.
*SQUEEZE*
Hi Aja! *SQUEEZE back*
Right. That’s better. Ahhh….
*SQUEEZE* Morning!
Hiya mr. cuddles!
They look a bit like mannequins don’t they? I wonder if they sing in a choir? Would you like to see the results?
right. you probably can’t the nipples because they’re… bending a little
Bendy nipples?
???what???
let me try
Tune in Tokyo!
I……just….can’t…..get….reception
Kenneth, do you have the frequency?
Strange Currencies
Yes, I have it over here. Can’t you see? That’s me in the corner. That’s me in the spotlight.
losing your religion?good stuff!
I think I thought so.
Sounds like GFC is automatic for the papal.

You’re so shiny happy, you really would liven our building up.
Especially the “perky” ones.

Oh, and Popemobile to Paraguay.
The guy on the right in front is a ventriloquist
I bet he has trained as a rural vet.
I hope so, otherwise it would be a bit unhygienic
It bothers me so, that you knew that one.
BTW, Gran, the comment you posted to me under Cat Flap Fail (“She’s my wife now DAAAVE!”) was v disconcerting. Makes me want to stop posting here.
Sorry, you have to check out papa lazaroo to understand (clickie)
Okay, sorry. I had no idea, never having heard of Papa Lazaroo. Just seemed horribly uncanny that you knew my name, but it just turns out to be a coincidence. Strange.
was going to say, if your name’s Dave it would be a total freak out! LOL!
Hehe! Lots of Daves are here…
Except the ones that aren’t.
If you don’t count them there are only Daves here.
That is going to be difficult without your space helmet, Dave.
Dave, I can see you’re really upset about this. I honestly think you ought to sit down calmly, take a stress pill, and think things over.
“Is your name not Dave?”
“No, it’s Michael Baldwin.”
“That’s going to cause some confusion. Mind if we call you Dave?”
(Conversation from the FAILosophy Department at the University of Woolloomooloo.)
rule number 3 hooray! rule number 4 no poofters!
You seem hypersensitive today, ST. Did you stare directly into the fail?
No, I am actually called Dave, so I was briefly freaked. Gran put me straight though.
Dave’s not here, man.
but DAAAAVVVE is
I was freaked when they called me Dave too.
I got over it.
I don’t know why.
your parents?
Well, my name’s not Dave for a start.
Is it Ted?
I guess I would be freaked too if my parents kept calling me Dave
Well, my name is Dave, sort of…because it isn’t actually… and that’s not my picture. So don’t come looking for me.
Don’t forget to mention that you don’t work as a doctor and certainly not in Belgium.
lol its a quintet
more like a queertet. get it right buddy.
Probably a sextet but their mate’s out of shot finding some lube.
lube is for queers
Boobs are for deers.
could have sworn this has featured before…or it takes a hell of a long time to get through “vote”
It’s not a fail. The 2 guys at the bottom left are conjoined, penis to arse.
nut to butt?
stinky to winky
shovel to claypit
wash it in the kitchen sinky
I sense a quarter-ly review here.
When will the first person say it’s photoshopped?
it’s photoshopped.
The pixels give it away.
The shadow is all wrong.
Failblog FAIL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!111!!!!!!!!!!!1
But are there four shadows or five?
And do they know?
It’s the 5 o’clock shadow on that one… right there.
Um, Cliff Richard, Hank Marvin, who were the others? Can’t even remember how many there were.
I know what you’re thinking. “Did he fire five singers or only four?” Well, to tell you the truth, in all this excitement I kind of lost track myself. But being as this is a pinkslip, the most powerful document in the world, and would blow your head clean off, you’ve got to ask yourself one question: Do I feel lucky? Well, do ya, punk?
no it’s a win!
Of course. But FAKE nonetheless.
it seems to be a bald-win
as far as I can (or want google research) the quartet was picked up by don baldwin. but no doubt it’s a fake of course. it says made in china at the back
Maybe one guy doesn’t sing? He might be there just to play guitar. Or maybe to dance on the side of the stage.
A quartet with Bez and his maracas would be a fine thing to see indeed.
that guy in the back right doesn’t belong. I bet he just ran in right before the pic was snapped, then ran away.
I think hanley’s onto something.
Or on something.
Let’s let the viewers at home decide.
err back left… (direction fail)
So…? What’s the problem. I was in a quartet too. Yup. There was three of us in this quartet: Me and my brother.
Does this make it a win?
Only to one of them.
*roffles at Phaet*
Good Morning Jam, there’s coffee and cognac up there ^
Morning WIK.
It’s ok, I’ve cleaned my screen once already today.
What the hell? It’s afternoon now and I’ve lost 3 hours somewhere.
Narcolepsia for the win?
*snores*
Wake up, little Jamie, wake up
Wake up, little Jamie, wake up
We’ve both been sound asleep, wake up, little Jamie, and weep
The movie’s over, it’s four o’clock, and we’re in trouble deep
Wake up little Jamie
Wake up little Jamie.
While I was asleep did someone give me a sex change?
Well, I had to get the -ie suffix, didn’t I?
Well you could have said Jammie. Then I’d be able to dodge the changes.
Jammie’s got a gun…
It’s a Big One!
Do you feel lucky?
Jammie, is it too late to say I’m sorry?
And Jammie could we get it together again?
Not really. I’m Cryin on the inside.
still sexy
You’re callin’ my name Arthur but I gotta make clear
If you say sorry, I’ll forgive you here.
Ok… it took me far too long to think of a word that rhymed with clear.
Lucky you weren’t trying to rhyme silver.
Or toilet.
Or orange.
It’s because I lost 3 hours. My mind hasn’t caught up with the time lapse.
I think I may have actually done some work but I can’t be sure.
You didn’t.
But don’t worry – it’s Friday, and nothing counts anyway.
You were supposed to ask me whether I have a brother
Or who the third person was.
Quartet plus pianist… This is not uncommon in the quartet genre.
I used to be in a barbershop quartet in Skokie, Illinois.

Like I’ve always said, there are 3 types of people in the world: those who CAN count, and those who cant!!
Nice…took me a minute on that one.
Why, are you missing a finger?
*roffles*
*offers pat one of granny’s*
Which one? Actually, I can guess. No need to answer that.
better make that four
You should give a helping hand Granny.
You’re not allowed to be that funny this early in the morning. I was not prepared for that.
Bad Boy Scout!
I think this pic is just super! I wish I was in a quartet!
*attempts a wholesome comment*
*commencing some hole attempt?*
dang!
A string quartet with the fifth guy directing them with his stick?
I’m not familiar with this group, but is it possible that the fifth man is the pianist?
No.
absolutely NOT.
Who said they didn’t do drugs in the 1950’s ????
Um, that was me *sigh* – sorry.
nice video…
i like this video..
Cheers,
diabetic diets
murad skin care
It’s not a video. And spam sucks.
Reeeeallly. I jus’ gotta pop by tha 7/11 Kthnxbi!
It’s called 4 guys and a piano player.
Also, it says “striptease” on the right.
The fifth person is obviously a guest artist, bandleader, or something like that. The “Three Tenors” recordings have four people on them. (One is the conductor, Zubin Mehta.) Duh.
i think the girly one in the middle is just a groupie
okay so i’d like to say that the couriers is a quartet b/c Don Baldwin who is my grandfather, back row on on the right, was the manager who occasionally sang with them.
You all fail. One of them is the sound engineer, obviously. And it doesn’t read “striptease”, it reads “stripTASE”.
2+2=5. Duh!
ohhh they said that there was four of them but theres fivey ohhhhhh
lol.
u know im going to laugh at this three days later
That is just classic. That totally mad me laugh out loud. This just made my day.
heres my theory: one is actually a conjoined twin but cant sing so he just tags along (i think its bottom middle and bottom right, although they look nothing alike)
Most gospel quartet albums show the quartet with the pianist who plays for them. The fifth member is likely a pianist. Not really a fail, per se.
there are three kinds of people out there: people who can count, and people who can’t =D
… Read and you shall recieve some Pedophile skill!
i dont get this fail
only the baritone and the bass have their balls
This group was a popular gospel quartet that began in the mid 50’s. and ended up singing backup to some pretty big names in the gospel and country music realms.

Sorry guy’s your fail failed… one is the piano player >.< the quartet name only applies to the singers.
Hey Mom, guess what – I’ve been offered the fifth place in a quartet! No, seriously!
Me no get it..
The top left guy looks like a ghost
You stupid bastards! A quartet can 4 instruments PLUS an additional keyboard instrument like a piano. Read a music book before you post!
“Quartet” designates that there are four singers. The extra member in the picture is most likely the non-singing piano player. In that genre of music, it’s not unusual for permanent musicians to be included in pictures of singing “quartets.” This is NOT a fail.
This is my youth pastor’s grandfather’s “quartet”.
I’ve been to his grandfather’s house. He has all of the records on their wall.
Fail or win?
They are one more than the 3 musketeers, so…
fail fail. quartets can have more than 4 members if there are only 4 parts not counting the piano part if the piece being played has one.
with your logic you are assuming that all solos are duets. fail.
Actually, as long as they only have four parts singing, it is technically a quartet.
American Quartets consist of 4 singers-Bass, Baritone, Lead, and a Tenor. The extra person(people) you see are musicians. In this case its a pianist. You Brit Jack Asses!
