This is my favorite festival in the World's Loudest Month. I was very disappointed with the main stages being on opposite sides of the venue. Please bring back the twin main stages! Other than that..... The lineup is always epic and I hope to never miss this festival! Bring back the twin main stages and that 5th star will be included in the rating \m/
This was by far the best music event I've ever been to! While I'm not a big fan of Jacksonville as a city; the venue choice that was made is just kicks! There is so much room to spread out and you don't feel like people are on top of you the whole day. The LINEUP - is just killer. I wish t-shirts weren't $30/piece - - but hey, you don't have to buy one if you don't want. 2015 was my first year at this event - - - - - - - - but it won't be the last. Driving from NOLa to be there was worth it.
More good than bad, venue wasn't that great but it was pretty laid back over all.
I haven't been to a rock show like this in a long time. This exceeded every expectation I had! This may have been one of the best days in my life! My daughter got to meet Motionless in White and that experience alone was unforgettable!!! I was not disappointed in any of the performances. My favorite was MIW as we were right in the front row!
Overall the event was amazing except for the VIP experience which was very poorly managed for the cost! There were a total of two security guards for the main VIP area and I spent more time fighting through crowds of people that did not have VIP access in the VIP areas!!! I would've expected a little more security given the cost of those VIP areas. The festival never announced that Hollywood Undead was being canceled as droves of people anxiously awaited for them to start playing only to have another band come on. The meet and greets went very well and there was a lot of access to a lot of different bands.
It was our third year to attend this event and we are already looking forward to next year. The lineup just keeps getting better & better.
3rd year going and it just keeps getting bigger. I liked the new set up with the shaded underpass. I hope they keep building it up and making Rockville the best it can be.
Each year gets better. We are starting to plan our vacations around Rockville. Rain couldn't keep us away on Saturday. Got hurt by a crowd surfer during Slipknot, but it was worth it.
The festival was amazing. We love all available structure. We left Brazil to have the opportunity to see much of our favorite bands on the same day, especially Tremonti, who although he made a short show, was our most special moment.
The show is usually great, but all of the first day was ruined. I understand that weather can't be helped, but the way it was handled was terrible. The announcement for the storm asked everyone to evacuate to their cars. They didn't tell you that you needed your tickets to get back in and ours got soaked in the rain and fell apart. They also didn't tell anyone bands were getting canceled. 2-3 got canceled in the first wave of storms. We waited it out to see Halestorm though. We managed to get to the front and right before they came on the warning went up again and we were told to evacuate. With no information from anyone at the festival, we figured they would be canceled too. We finally decided to leave because of that, got completely drenched trying to get to our cars only to hear them start playing after about 20 minutes of waiting for the rest of our party. Even when people asked, no one would tell them what was going on. We were all pretty angry with the concert staff for failing to tell anyone anything besides the storm was coming and to evacuate.
