A band 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, Alice Cooper and AC/DC... You get the idea. The original line-up went nowhere as the Neil and Marti were 8 or 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.
