    Default Mod or rocker?

    Which one would you have been in the 60's? (or maybe you're so old you were alive in the 60's )

    I reckon Mod, no doubt, the clothes, the scene, bands like the Small Faces (no one mention The Who, plastic mod fuckers)

    But maybe a Mod with a Manx Norton for secret blasts when the vespa got too boring.

    Mod for sure. My old man was a mod in the 60's, he had a lambretta with loads of wing mirrors and everything, never touched the drugs though.

    My old man was a Rocker so I guess I'd be the same.

    Although he did get beaten up by a load of Mods......

    Rocker without a shadow of doubt. Ton-up to the milk bar for a coffee.

    Rocker

    I would have kicked Sting square in the nuts, and kicking off wing mirrors would have been a happy pastime

    Mods = Gheys

    A rocker obviously.

    I'm disappointed in some of you, mod FFS!

    I'm a mod
    I've always been a mod
    My father was a mod before me
    By coat is a Parka
    My shirt is Ben Sherman
    The boots on my feet were made by a German
    Outside the window sits a broken down Lambretta
    I'm going to fix it
    When the weather gets better.

    Pfft! - a decent pair of blue jeans, boots, a plain black or white tee shirt and a nice leather jacket, all clean

    Exactly. Pointless arseing about on motorcycles and stopping for the odd cuppa would have made as much sense then as now.
