Rock the Shores Tickets

great venue. great bands. great people. I will most definitely be going again next year. if there were only one complaint its they need more vendors. the lines got a little gnarly. but only the second year running they did an amazing job.

To start I am glad we bought VIP tickets as the line up to get in was not that bad, however the lineups for the outhouses were terrible - at least a 30 minute wait. Beer and cider was more expensive than last year and the beer was not a full glass and warm. The headliner in my opinion should have been 54-40.

This two day event featured a full day of great Canadian acts and other new and excited acts that was closed by an incredible performance from Weezer! The venue has great sight lines and the organizers have arranged the setup to have three distinct areas VIP, general and 19+. The VIP area does not allow for close stage action but the other two areas have your classic get to the front mosh style battling for position. Lots of people crowd surfing...just wish guys over 200lbs would abstain. Overall, definitely a blast!

Lineup to get in was kinda ridiculous, missed two performers while waiting in line. And having some health issues, having to walk that huge line for so long was really difficult and unexpected (probably my own fault, I hadn't been before) but it had me paying for days after. Outhouses didn't have toilet paper, which was pretty gross (that was early on, i didn't dare go in later). I think they really need to find a bigger venue for this and have a bigger (or maybe more?) entrances, but of course that means more volunteers, since everyone coming in has to be searched. But lots of security around to keep things safe, performers were really good, acoustics were great.

As stated in the title. The music was really good. Great sound, and great bands. The venue on the other hand was a joke. Line ups upon line ups. We got there around 3pm. Waited nearly 2 hours to get into the venue. Waited another 2 hours to get into the beer tent, only to find out we have to wait AGAIN for another hour to get beer tickets and had to wait in another line up to get beer. The logistics of this event was an utter joke. By far the worst outdoor festival I've ever been to. I will never go back.

Well worth the price of admission. The organizers definitely still have a few kinks to work out (doors need to open sooner, more food carts etc), but overall it was an amazing show with a fantastic atmosphere.
