Sumario:Rock band Clandestino’s performance in Montevideo, in May of 1988, dominated the daily and weekly newspapers’ covers of the time due to the subsequent imprisonment of its frontman.

The political tensions that preceded the performance, the rock youngsters’ stigmatizing characterization by the press, and the discussion of conceptions about rock and punk rock as a social and cultural phenomenon allow to analyze the uncertainty about what might or might not be said publicly in the new democracy.
