Panqueque

Panqueque

A slang term for young punks or anarchists sporting prominent mohawks. The name stems from a humorous comparison between their stiff, upright hair and the bristles of a scrubbing brush (it is a play on the word punk). (In Chile, a tocata is a small underground concert and a promo is a discounted combo of a bottle of liquor and a mixer).

There was a group of panqueques outside the gig begging for change for a promo, rocking some massive colored mohawks.
