Boom boxes
Chicks with big hair, and shoulder pads. Add a few wine coolers, hopefully get to third base?

Speaking of Third Base, give 'em da Gas Face.

New York laces for your super white high top sneakers . Velcro wallets, Vison street wear clothes. Phone booths or pay phones and wear to hide the dime so you could call home for a ride . NWA or Public Enemy .Having no worries !

Beastie Boys and Vans.

Yes. Frogskins.

Whenever I hear the beginning of AC/DC's Back in Black, I think of Josh White or somebody dropping in from an AFA quarter pipe. 

The Austin City Coliseum AFA Freestyle contests were full of Metal and Rap, with occasional New Wave and Punk.
