Return of Boy Bands

It takes about 25 minutes to drive out to the mine each day. That can become 25 very boring minutes with no radio or music. While I like to drive in silence once in a while, doing so twice a day six days a week would be too much.
Luckily there is a tape deck in the truck.
Unluckily I failed to bring any tapes with me.
Luckily Steve (our LIMS programmer) was here before me, bought some tapes and left them for me.
Luckily one of the tapes is Congolese so I get a taste of the music here.
Unluckily, or maybe luckily, the other tape is Backstreet Boys. That's right, they are making a comeback in the Congo.
When I leave I have to take one of the tapes with me to return to Steve. I'll let you decide which one that is :) I think I will actually take both tapes as I'm sure he wants BSB back.

  1. That's funny and random. I don't mind some of the BSB music but I was never a big fan of the group. Ok, I've never been a fan of any music group.
