The concert was great. The weather was perfect. Drake White was my favorite!! I'll come back to see him again for sure!!!
I was pretty excited to see the lineup of great country stars and purchased six tickets for a group of friends. It turned out to be a gorgeous day and we headed into Landsdowne Street. A great recommendation would have been to let everyone know which END of Landsdowne Street to enter on. We ended up having to walk all the way around. Just a thought. I was pretty disappointed with the state of many people at the street party. So drunk. This made up for quite a time trying to maneuver around people as they fell over and stumbled around. You simply couldn't get very close to the stage without having to be completely squished in. I get it though; it's a street party. Maybe I'm just too old for this. Another suggestion: I had to go to three different beer stands before I could find WATER for sale. That's absurd. Bad enough the limited option of drinks were NINE dollars, you should be serving water at ALL stands. Shame on you. I guess I'll just check this one off my list as "one and done". This isn't for real country music fans; it's for drunks. Sorry but on a scale of 1 to 10? I give this a 3. p.s. We didn't even stay for Billy, who I really wanted to see. We grabbed a bite to eat at Boston Beer Works instead.
Great event as always! Needs to be more beverage vendors outside of the bars though. Limes are way to long at all times
First time at the street party but not my last! This was a great time. Landsdowne was closed to traffic and open to ticket holders. General admission show with hit artists along with upcoming artists. Probably not as fun if it were raining but it's a chance you take.
WOULD HAVE REALLY ENJOYED THIS SHOW IF WE DIDNT WAIT FOR OVER AN HOUR IN LINE TO GET INTO THE CONCERT. THEY NEED TO FIX THIS !!!
This was our 3rd year going to the Street Party. It will probably be our last. When he got there (2 hours after gate opened) we had to stand in line for over a half hour to get in. This has never happened before. Seemed to be no reason. The line up this year was also a little disappointing. Less acts than in past years.
The admittance lines were not well thought out. There could've been a "bags" and "no bags" line. Multiple people should have been checking IDs. Those people could've moved out into the lines and started ahead of time. Took over 45 minutes of waiting in line just to get in. There was only one screen at the far end of the street showing the stage, yet the entire street was part of the event. Multiple screens at different sections of the street should've been installed. HOB was open for seating and bathrooms, yet none of the TV's in the HOB we're broadcasting the show. If you were down at the end near Brookline Ave, you wouldn't be able to hear or see the stage. Too long of an event and too much time between sets. This is not the first year 102.5 has done this event and it's as though it's getting worse
The event was awesome! If you like country music, this event was for you! It was crowded, but what country concert isn't. We went with a group of 5, and had a ball! There were so many pubs open on Lansdowne Street, we had just as much fun listening to Timmy Brown and The Black Diamond Country Band in between artists! We landed at Loretta's Last Call, and had a nice dinner. We met some friends and were able to see up close and personal all of the artists before they went on. My daughter had a full blown conversation with Eric Paslay, didn't even know it as him until his security escorted him away to the stage! It was a long day traveling into Boston via the T, but it was fun! A great inexpensive, all day outing! The artists were up close and personal and took time out to pose for pictures with us as they walked around. We got a great shot of us all with Cassadee Pope's band! We ended up right in front for the Chris Young concert, who I had seen about 5 times over the last several years. He is one of my favorites! It was a magical day I was able to share with my college daughters and friends. We will be going back next year!
My sister and I went to this Street Party.We were 10 feet away from the stage. I must say out of all the artists that we seen the BEST was LoCash!!! They did amazing. What a show they put on. They interacted with the crowd. The person that performed my least favorite was Casady Pope. She was too boring. I like her and her songs but the ones she chosen for the Concert was too dingy. I was so bored because the songs were too sad and slow. You need to pick songs that will get the audience pumped. I think they should've put her last and not Chris Young. I would def go to this next year if they have it. What an amazing time! Thank you 102.5!
The weather was horrible. Rainy and cold. If tents had been set up, this event would have been much better. Also, people should have been able to leave and re-enter in order to get out of the weather for a bit or get some dry clothes.
Should have been moved into the House of Blues or done something to offset the weather. It was far to rainy and cold to be enjoyable, and majority of guests left before seeing their moneys-worth
Show should have been postponed due to weather. The sound acoustics are horrible. To hear the music you have to be close to the stage. There should be speakers every 200 ft along the whole roadway for everyone to hear that attends. Re-entry should have been allowed for people that were not able to go into bars during the rainstorm. Very poorly planned and very unsatisfied.
I attended the past two years with friends and this year it just poured. There was no rain date which can be somewhat understandable with many artists coming but needs tents or something set up for people to get under. Bars were full with lines down the side walk waiting. Our jackets and coats were soaked through even with umbrellas. Couldn't even stay for the entire concert we were shivering so badly and left before the artists we actually wanted to see. They also never told anyone before the concert that no backpacks were allowed. I had brought the same bag as the previous year and they wouldn't let it in, and they weren't holding bags for people (we came from over an hour away by the train). I had to buy a daily membership at a gym down the street to rent a locker. Will not be going to this concert again.
Rain or shine, this concert is so much fun! Lots of up and coming country artist worth seeing!
