In 1997, ROCKETBOY'S second album, "Now That We Have Your Attention" is released. Finally, with a small amount of tour support, ROCKETBOY does a month long, 21 date tour with BRIDE. Some of the band's most legendary shows are played in 1997, including the HM Stage at Cornerstone, Edgefest, sneaking into Canada, the "three shows in 24 hours" escapade, and their final show at the Warehouse on New Year's Eve.
