I guess there just aren't enough known bands from Boston to make a quiz that has realistic answers. Kind of surprising considering the size of the city.

Just because your musical universe is limited to the mainstream doesn't mean that everyone else is the same.

This quiz has a good balance of the obvious usual suspects like Aerosmith, the Cars, and Donna Summer, and college radio icons like the 'Hoods and STC.

Wow, I am surprised I got only 4/15. Also, I was expecting the J. Geils Band on this quiz.
