A rockinroller is a usually upper-class nostalgic hard rock
fan in their 40s, most notably defined by their pseudo-underground clothing. Rockinrollers are united in their
mid-life crisis, party atmosphere, fashion, and millions of dollars. The rockinroller subculture/clique is mainly located in
Las Vegas or wherever a rockinroller's private jet
may take him. Rockinrollers are usually celebrities, but all share the same insecurity of age which is part of the motivation behind the rockinroller's state of mind: "I
may be old but I am still a badass. Bring the hookers!".
One distinct element of the rockinroller is the fashion. Customized leather products, tight
pants, luxury brands, top hats, bandanas, ripped denim, and crooked stitching are the norm. The fashion combines elements of goth, vampire, steampunk, biker, eurotrash, and rich douchebag subculture. Rockinrollers wear anything that is "COOL": black leather, black jeans, black hats, black hair, black shoes, and some things that are ripped up but stitched back together. The rockinroller subculture is defined by upper class hedonism, livin' the good life, and being just another
rock n rolling bad
ass still going at it! Not all rockinrollers are musicians, some are magicians and even visual artists (e.g. Chris
Angel, Michael Godard).

Ozzy.
Rockinroller: We'

Blues right? (strumming a PRS)
