-Rocket was/is a band originally formed in 1985 by [[Neil Wiger]] and his neighborhood buddy [[Marti Nansen]]. Rocket was based on a firm love for classic rock and metal like KISS, Black Sabbath, Iron Maiden and AC/DC... You get the idea. The original line-up went nowhere as the Neil and Marti were 8 and 9 years old. In 1990 Neil and his cousin [[Aaron Andersen]] rose the moniker again and played a couple shows here and there in Fargo and Moorhead, mainly private shows. The band played before 1,200 people at there "biggest show" in June of 1992 in Perham, Minnesota. Rocket were the first band that I knew of that wore face paint and took it 'seriously' in the Fargo-Moorhead area. We proudly founded black metal in the region back in the 1980's. The band always played in E natural (string tuning), nerves made live performances faster than usual and they liked porn. Kid's In Satan's Service. Yes we are Lutherans.
