rockabilly

A music and fashion subculture started in the mid-late seventies in the UK. Seventies teenagers developed their own dress code based on 1950s American Juvenile Delinquent novels and Hot Rod B-movies.
Puttin distance between themselves and the older "Teddy Boys" who attended the same clubs and dances at the time.
Their taste in music was for the more primitive hillbilly-rock hybrid "rockabilly" that kicked off in the mid fifties at the same time as its more succesful and commercial sibling - "rock and roll".
The rockabilly scene still exists today.
He must be a rockabilly, his turn-ups are huge!

rockaway

No. Just, no. It's not the shit, despite what people say. It is shit. As the residents of Rockaway say, it's a "hellhole" on the south side of New York City.
Those Rockaway scum think their hellhole is the best place on Earth. Well, they're still livin' in the SEP bubble.

Rockaway

A neighborhood in Queens where young people spend all their money on clothing, alcohol, and drugs. A neighborhood full of crackheads on 116th street and a nice bagel place and deli on 129th.
A neighborhood where people tip chairs for fun and get zooted 24/7
I went to this sick party at Rockaway yesterday

Rockafella

Mispelling from John Davison Rockefeller a rich american industalist 1939-1937, and is commonly used to describe a person of considerable wealth.
In the song on the sunny side of the street by Dorothy Fields & Jimmy McHugh, 1929, the lyrics go

If I never had a cent,
I'd be rich as Rock - e - fel - ler,
Gold dust at my feet

Or "look at you rockafella" - implying someone been lavish.

Rockaway

beach town in ny. the kinda town where your english teacher at SFDS is a bar tender at connelys, your first job was at the warf. your first drink was in breezy by the bungalos, and if you drive slowly past st francis de sales school you'll hear "mcmanus, spit out the gum!" being yelled by mikeybarna. every one plays soccer or basketball or both...and kids play manhunt till their 30
