These four brothers found a quiet place to sit, straddle, and reflect.

Aren’t they the Statler Brothers?
We hated Joe. They day before we had all agreed on white shirts and no jacket or tie. “Let’s keep it casual,” we said, but nooooo! Joe had to do his own thing and make the rest of us look like fools. He always thought he was so great what with his non-deformed right arm that he didn’t have to hide like the rest of us had to do.
But I got Joe back. I sat close. Really close. Uncomfortably close. So close, you could see the discomfort in his face just like you could see the look of vengeance in mine.
Never had to worry about Joe again after that. We never saw him again.
“Az you see here in ziz beauteeful time-lapse photograph, ze facial hair slowly continues its upvard migration over time. Beautiful, wild facial hair creeping slowly, slowly upvard from ze lower cheenlands until eet settles for ze long vinter beneath the gentle, warming breezes of Mt. Nostril.”
More Mustache Club Members :-{)

Whole lot of handlebar mustache going on here.
I think one of them was my phy ed coach back in 5th grade.
Rockin’ mullet on the 2nd bro in line!
Um.. Looks like the Oakridge Boys to me! Before they were stars!
From right to left its like the evolution of a beard starting with a ‘stach to a full blown beard.
Nice photo Mandy of your dad, I’m sure he is excited that it was posted!
Beards up front, ‘staches in the back.
The brother in the front is clearly the rebel. The black sheep. The man who goes it alone…
I can smell the musk cologne from here. Somebody open a window.
I was thinking that! English Leather!
I bet they got into a few fights over “tastes great” vs. “less filling”
i like how they are all trying so hard to not touch eachother
The evolutuion of facial hair
#3 “Eww, who cut the cheese?”
#2 [Totally oblivious] “What?”
#1 “Good, they’ll think #2 did it”
#4 “Knock it off, guys – I’m trying to look cool here!”
LOL That’s exactly what I thought…. #3 look like he smells an air biscut!
This is great Mandy!! Hahahahahahaha! Wait until I email this link to my dad! I can’t stop laughing! At least your dad’s haircut has finally allowed him to “become a star!” Hahahaha!
whoa, that is a whole lot of hair.
30 years later, those guys would be kicking hippie butt.
I love a man with lots of hair on his head. Mmmmm. This is a yummy smorgasbord.
“Uh sir, we know you have to take pictures of the hockey team at 4pm. Couldn’t we wait till our bobsled and spandex suits arrive to make this shot look more authentic?”
So good, Don had to say it twice!
Look out, y’all it’s the comment police!
My heart’s on fire for Elvira!
Awesome. Spot on!
“…and with their boys size underwear firmly in place, the Gibb Brothers suddenly broke out in a falsetto harmony.” Stayin’ Alive was born!
I love the “Name Belt” on the brother on the right. I’m not sure how pervasive Name Belts were in other parts of the country in the late 70s, but here in Texas every high school boy wore one. Your name was proudly displayed on the back of the belt, and on the front you wore a large buckle, most likely touting Colt guns or Lone Star beer.
Just in case you forgot it come quiz time …
It was the “in thing” here in the southeast, too. The belt buckles also touted Harley Davidson motorcycles or Ranger bass boats.
yikes…I bought my BF a name belt for hannukah last year – I’d never seen them before (NYers – no one has room for leather tooling…er…tools? in these tiny apts). He wears it daily. Should I tell him that’s wrong???!
♪ ♫.”Oh play me….some mountain music….like my grandma and grandpa used to play….”♪ ♫.
Instead of”Log Jam”, how about “Spooning Siblings”?
Them thar’s some warwulves.
Is that the Oakridge Boys?
No, but if there was ever an Oaks tribute band…THIS would be exactly how their publicity photo would look!
They don’t make ‘em like they used to
Ahhh
John R……we speak the same language.
Ahhh….they don’t make ‘em like they used to.
Omg, you titled it “Log Jam”? The photo is definitely awkward, but title is…. gross. Hahaha ridiculous!
Oh wow, never thought of that…until now!
What 70′s band are they?
The Oak Ridge Boys!
I was thinking Oak Ridge Boys, too.
Probably REO Speedwagon
From the point of view of any given individual in the photo, only three of them are brothers.
Oh, and the worst part of this entry, by far, is the title!! (And the pic is plenty awkward!!)
hee hee u said entry
I saw the picture, I laughed…
I saw the caption, I died laughing…
Hey, isn’t that the Statler Brothers???
No, it’s the Brothers Gibb before Andy went out on his own and left the rest to become the Bee Gees.
Hey, I think I have their album!
I’ll have the second one from the left, please. He looks like a Viking and I could use a Viking right about now.
Surely this is the cover of a 70′s music album. Early 80′s, even…
The guy in the suit kinda ruins the all white shirts theme….
The four Amigos: Kenny Rogers, Grizzly Adams, Tom Selleck and Charles Bronson!
ha ha…i remember Grizzly Adams
WIN!!!
YOU TOTALLY NAILED IT!
After a tough day of sound tests and rehearsals, the country band Alabama thought they’d ease back and wax nostalgic for a few, preferably while almost sitting in each other’s laps.
New game: ‘Stash The Log!
The Oakridge Boys….the Early Years…..
I thought Doobie Brothers lol!!!
I was going with Alabama, or the lost brothers of Kenny Rogers.
I thought Oakridge Boys, too. The song “Elvira” inexplicably popped into my head when I saw this and I had to Goggle it to recall who sang it.
OOPS! “Google”
Hop on board the moustache train!
…what the rest of us were thinking but didn’t say… LOL
I wouldn’t mind being the tomato in that club sandwich.
LOL!!!
I was thinking the same thing! I find nothing awkward about this picture. It’s dated, for sure, but that does not make it awkward.
You kidding? Those are the northern versions of mullet-men!
I think the guys look handsome= not awkward, but the way they’re sitting= pretty awkward. It’s like some weird album cover or something.
I see that mustaches are required, yet white shirts are optional.
It’s good to be the oldest!
The guy in front is the leader. The rest are wingmen.
awesome!
It’s the Brawney paper towel model contest!
Ding! We have a winner!
nothing really awkward about this to me, but those haircuts will come back to haunt them for sure.
Let’s see, moustachioed, similarly dressed manly men straddling a bench. Yep, it’s the hair that’s awkward.
BAHAHAHA!
The shot we are not seeing is when one of these brothers got up and the bench flipped backwards….
That footage will be on AFV this Sunday at 8:00!
“Uh sir, we realize you have to take pictures of the hockey team at 4pm. Couldn’t we wait till our bobsled and spandex suits arrive to make this shot look more authentic?”
Barry Gibb would be proud…
I was thinking of Barry Gibb too!!!
I also thought it was a Doobie Brothers reunion!
Now that’s awkward.
