The Bamboozle Festival is an incredible, non forgettable experience. 3 days of the most amazing bands all at one festival. I consider going if you can any year it rolls around. The line-ups every year just get better and better. Sadly Emarosa wasn't able to be there this year which was out of their control. Best Festival Hands Down!

I can't even describe how amazing my first Bamboozle Fest weekend was. I traveled 12 hours from Michigan and it was 100% worth it. I seen artists I had been waiting years to see, and met so many awesome people. The atmosphere is great, along with just EVERYTHING!

We had a great time seeing our favorite bands: the Ready Set, We The Kings, Breathe Carolina, Black Veil Brides, & of course Motley Crüe! We appreciated the efforts to increase access as I use a wheelchair. Great idea to have the ramped stands for the Jolly Green & Jumbo stages. Also, appreciated the security personnel who were helpful and looked out for us: we were around for two days, and got around to every stage at one point or another! Thanks for recovering our daughter's cell phone, which was stolen by a ride operator...if only they could have been able to find her shoes lost during A Day To Remembr (kidding, way too much to ask!). Finally, the food....AMAZING! We'll be back next year!

Great Show. Terrible Layout of stages

The acts were incredible. Dashboard delivered a flawless performance, which even included a surprise cover of Weezer's El Scorcho. Taking Back Sunday performing "Tell All Your Friends" in its entirety was a well deserved surprise for those of us who have enjoyed this band for the last 10 years.
The biggest downfall to this year's Bamboozle was the layout of the stages. The two main stages were on polar opposite sides of the parking lot, which means in order to see two bands you would have to either miss the last song of the first band or the first song of the second band. Although this did draw more attention to the vendors which were located in the space between the two main stages (the only reason I could come up with why the layout was this way), this was detrimental to those of us who genuinely wanted to see all the bands. Bamboozle 2010 had the two main stages next two each other which allowed fans to see all songs of all band. No one missed a beat. Other than the poor planning on the use of the space, the show was awesome. I would recommend it to anyone and I plan on going next year!

I went on Sunday to see Bruno Mars and We The Kings and it was AMAZING! Security was a bit tighter this year, so they inspected bags a little more, but of course there was still the smell of pot everywhere! I have gone for 4 years in a row and it is always unforgettable!!

I had such a great time!! I took my 13 yrs old god-daughter to the fest and she had a great time - she got to meet PARAMORE and WE THE KINGS, she was sooo excited! we got to see Bruno Mars and Montley Crue, the other bands were great and the djs were very entertaining, there was a little bit for everyone.

I look forward to next year but it all depends on the line-up!

Most of the artists were awesome! The fact that I did not like was the pushing and shoving I absolutely hated it and was hurt plenty of times because of that. Some artists I wanted to see was kind of ruined due to that fact.

Got to meet and greet Thrice. They were very nice guys and even signed my ticket for day 2. Thanx again guys! all the bands were amazing also but Thrice stole the show for me. Also circa survive brought the energy. Anthony came down and actually sang right in front of me. Great time!

I loved, loved, loved the music. Bruno Mars, A Day to Remember, Motley Crue and Lil Wayne all played back to back and it was SO amazing. However... I drove all the way from North Carolina to find that it costs $25 a day to park at the concert that I already payed $150 for... we couldn't bring any food or even water inside, and it cost me $15 for a hot dog and a bottle of water alone. Those prices are just not reasonable. We spent hundreds of dollars for gas, tolls, and a place to stay while attending this event, and then we spend a ridiculous amount of money on parking and food, two things which are NEEDED for this event, it was just not fair. The first night we were stuck in traffic for 5 hours and did not get there until 10:30 pm and we still had to pay $25 to park even though we left at midnight. We also had food confiscated, and we saw the security guys eating the little bag of chips when we left an hour and a half later! The bathrooms were ridiculous. The guy who was meant to refill the toilet paper was sitting there texting instead of doing his job, and on the doors of the porta potties, it said 'tips appreciated'. Tips for what? Dirty bathrooms and no tp?
Bamboozle would have been so much more enjoyable if they didn't take all of my money and things were cleaner. And there should be an age requirement! Kids were listening to Lil Wayne?? NO! Not acceptable, they need parents with kids under a certain age, especially when there are 15 year old girls walking around in basically no clothing. I will never attend this event again unless it is somewhere close to home so I don't have to pay for parking. I expected so much more.
