Before i get started, Rocker is not a label, its a just... a way of life!
The term Rocker applies to any person who genuinely likes listening to any type of rock
music over other types of
music, but not ruling out other
music styles. There are many types of of Rockers such as Goths, Emos, Indies, Moshers, Punks, Metalheads and Hippies to
name a few, it is not uncommon for the different types to argue amongst each other yet there can be also great friendships between different types. A person who has no affiliation must not be confused and take in that a certian group of rockers are infact posers or wanabees for this is an insult or term to call one
fake or shallow and not being themselvs. Most Rockers are generally at odds with groups such as
Chavs, Jocks and scallies because those groups are generally dickheads, wankers and/or scumbags!!!
Here are a few sterotypical pastimes of each type of Rocker (which are not
true) -
Goths - Eating disorder, self harming, making sacrifices to Satan, Attention seeking
Emos - Faking
depression, crying over nothing, trying to fit on those
tight black jeans without ripping a hole in the croch area... and failing!
Indies - Critising other peoples tastes in anyting, worring about labels, being a snob
Metalheads - Playing Ozzy Osbourne and Children of Bodom at full volume out of a 140wt guitar
