La la la, ha ha ha...

On my way into the office the other day I was walking behind this guy carry a bag that was designed to look like a big 1980s boom box. - complete with speakers, tape deck and all the buttons. (Remember rewinding and fast-forwarding? How quaint.)

The bag was pretty cool, and certainly unique, so I decided to snap a quick picture with my phone - something I never do for fear of getting caught. But this bag was cool and worth the risk. Can you see it?



I continued on my way, Boom Box Boy going left and me going right, down into the métro. I was patting myself on the back for my quick photo reflexes when I looked up and saw these two guys...



But these are actually real accordions slung over their shoulders, not just cool bags. I, of course, thought this was hee-larious and decided to take my second secret phone photo.

i love this! you should keep up the super secret photo snapping on the streets of lyon!

i'm terrified of doing this but i did succeed the other day in the gym.

also, pretty sure III needs a boom box bag to carry all his very important doctor tools. (are they called tools? they totally should be!)

You're brave! I've been told too many times to put my camera away in public places so I feel a little intimidated now...

You know what would've been funnier?

Of course..... just HOW often does one see 2 accordian slingin' dudes walking the street?!
Great day for sneaky cell phone camera shots, indeed!
