1. Urban Tribes

2. The Rockers

3. A Little History
Urban tribes are social groups that have different behaviors and beliefs from other groups.
Firstly, up until the post-WW II, motorcycling held a prestigious
position and had a positive image in British society.
Came due of different factors:
The end of the post-war.
Influence of American popular music and films.
Motorcycles were inexpensive and became middle class transport.
The development of transport cafés.

4. Group that begins in the 50’s
Frank Sinatra

5. Aesthetic Codes
Rockers wear heavily-decorated leather motorcycle jackets, often adorned
with metal studs, patches and pin badges and leather pants. When they ride their motorcycles, they usually wear no helmet, or a classical
open face one. The rocker hairstyle was usually a tame or exaggerated pompadour hairstyle.

6. Identity Symbols
Rockers were seen as hopelessly, naïve, individualists and rebels.
They are identified by their motorcycles, some with long hair and leather clothing with studs.

7. MUSIC
Rockers listen to bands such as Guns N’ Roses, Queen, Nirvana, AC/DC, Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, Bon Jovi, Metallica, Aerosmith, Black Sabbath, The Rolling Stones, Kiss, Scorpions, Deep Purple, etc.

8. Language “Loco” just to mention somebody “bardo” doing something bad
“curtir” has several meanings: it can be to have something sexual, or it can refer to the style of music that one listens
“flash” It is like hallucinating, as delirious, I could even be used to qualify a person
“onda”
“copado”
“baby” refers to a girl
