Welcome To Boston! Oh man, when In My Eyes would play this song, kids would go CRAZY. No matter what I say, no matter what I do … Your moshing. And Boston was good to these dudes. Boston was their home turf, and the kids there stood behind them. One thing I can’t stand behind? You guessed it, navy tees. I’m pretty sure this tshirt only came on a navy tee. Throughout all the years, In My Eyes only released shirts on a very few colors. Navy and black were the big ones. Grey and royal were runners up. Maroon was WAY down the list. Revelation Records were mix it up with a few thumbprint tees on tan, but for the most part, In My Eyes stuck to the basic colors and let the fonts and graphics stand out.
For those not up on Boston history, the back print is the Seal of the Commonwealth (Massachusetts is a commonwealth, not a state. No joke. There are 4 commonwealth “states” in total. Get your knowledge up!). The seal reads Ense petit placidam sub libertate quietem. That’s latin for all you heathens out there. It means “by the sword we seek peace, but peace only under liberty.” Deep.
Make sure to check out mazzo29’s other auctions for more great gems like this. But without the historic facts, sadly.
I had this on black with silver print, so def wasn’t just navy.
Hahah, you’re right. I have it on black with silver too. LOL
