Their ages are 12,13,15, and 16. They were 10th place here, their first International Contest in Detroit 1981. All four also won Chorus golds that year. They made it to 4th place in 1984 and 85. David and Doug (Lead and Tenor) won Gold Medals with Second Edition in 1989. David started and directed the Louisville Times Chorus. Doug started and directed Zero8 Chorus.

This is Stu Ferris (Marlene's Husband) and I was there in Detroit in 1981, and saw them compete. Their outfits were different than these outfits. Their hats and all were different. I KNOW!!! I'm right because I was there.

[@askcastellar9394]

maybe because there were multiple sets?

[@connerrock1164]

Did they actually compete in international this concert Doug looks like he’s less than 10 years old I still like these guys and hope they’re in the top 5 but still how young is there tenor here !

[@Campuscoll]

I wonder if any of these boys went on to other top 10 quartets. Start 'em young.

[@BarbershopHarmony]

Yes, the lead and tenor went on to win a quartet gold with Second Edition.

[@steveboone1498]

@@BarbershopHarmony the tenor switched to baritone allowing Fred Ferrell to sing tenor
