Yeah, I've seen that also but it seemed very English and non-conceptual to me. For someone with no English background it doesn't make sense. The "rock" in "rock & roll" doesn't have anything to do with "rocks" or "stones" or "hardness".
I understand that sometimes new signs show up in the Deaf community that aren't conceptual, for whatever reason.
But thanks for the input.
I guess there is no one "right" sign for the phrase.
