SWEET PETE AND HIS IMPORTANCE TO THE IMAGE OF QUINCY, MA

Sweet Pete, former lead singer of Hardcore music act In My Eyes has more to be proud of then just In My Eyes' catalog. Without him, people would just think that all 100% of the population of Quincy (including the booming Chinese population) were all a bunch of polo hat wearing, bud light drinking, red sox pull-over , windbreaker people. Pete, who was born and raised in the City of Presidents saw his fair share of shenanigans, but nothing more than any other city. Like myself, Pete took a permanent inbound ride on the Red Line to Boston, but still dedicates his life to Quincy's image. Without him, people would get the idea that Quincy people did OC's, jumped over turn styles on the subway, or even worse yet, smoked cigarettes for hours at a time outside all 4 T stations. Since Pete has been around, kids have reduced smoking around the clock at all stops to just Quincy Center and North Quincy stations. The city has a proud history of being the home to the first dunkin donuts and the fifth buck-a-buck. We'd all hate to see the perception of the city to go up in smoke like the smokers outside North Quincy Station. John and John Quincy Adams were both born and raised in the Q, do you think they ever got hammered at the Irish Pub and blew every red light on hancock st en route to JJ Foleys (21 Kingston St, Boston, MA 02111) for last call? Im not going to count it out, but I HIGHLY doubt it. Raiders and Presidents alike owe Mr Maher a ton.



Other than Springa of SS Decontrol being a complete piece of crap from hell, I couldn't begin to comprehend why people think Quincy people are subpar. I'd love to hear anyone's theory on this....
