How many of you old'ns out there were Teddy boys?

Answer 1

I was there when Bill Haley brought out rock( around the clock)
it was electric there will never be another era like it.

Answer 2

When I was a boy, the eyes fell out
of my teddy bear.
Mrs Davis who lived next door, sewed
some red buttons on, to replace the eyes.
I stopped crying and went peacefully
to sleep.
I could never understand what all that
Queen stuff was about,
but God bless the English.

Answer 4

My Dad was a Teddy Boy, in the Sixties, I have got old black and white Photos of him and he looked very smart. He said it was better than being a "rods and Mockers" Pun on the Initials, as he'd say.

Answer 5

When I was 15/16 yes I was (1979/80) but then I heard The Stray Cats and stopped.Then I heard proper Rockabilly as it should be played and stopped liking The Stray Cats (fickle huh?) LOL - since then I`ve gone through Psychobilly and back to Rockabilly.
