Who went to rockfest?
 

Was there. Looks about the same. With slightly more hair.

I saved myself the $14 and listened to Limp Bizkit in my bedroom alone yesterday.

Didn't go this year. Had a BBQ to go to.

couldn't pay me to go.

way too many people for my taste. and it being hot outside.

bump

Limp Bizkit? I thought they died....

God, rockfest sucks. I went one time and will never go back.

I had to work it doing security. We had a butt ass naked man walking down the street. He was yelling about licking his own butthole. Got him taken down on Main Street. He must have a medical condition because his wiener looked a innie bellybutton.

Please tell me that's not you?


Is this some kind of sick stone cold Steve Austin joke?

Was it a member of this board? I swear some on here must have little shortys the way they are never happy.

NSFW Nice little rant by Staind

Did you catch his CP handle?

LMAO

Staind is still playing their awful music, eh?

Its Been Awhile.....

Hahahahaha


What a ****ing douche bag

Brb got some mud on my shovel I gotta clean off.



I tried lol

Their plane can't go down over the Everglades fast enough for me. And for gods sake I hope Linkin Park is on the plane with them when it does.

The last one I went to was the mud fest one four or five years ago. I promised myself I'd never go to another one.

Okay Linkin Park is bad ass man. They were the best band I've seen live.

At least he was taking up for something he thought was wrong...

Ok what are you a 15 year old with a face full of acne? You should not be allowed to give opinions on music anymore after this PDA for Stinkin Linkin... Let me guess. You are a Nickleback fan too??

Was he an overweight bald dude? Drunk off his ass?

I worked that one too. People were stripping naked outside the westin hotel and the bell boys were spraying them down with water houses before they could come in. That was a nightmare.

True. My issue with it is if you're gonna go into a pit, or crowd surf you know what's gonna happen before you do it. I'm not one for touching under ages girls inappropriately, but if I girl doesn't think that's gonna happen before she does it, she's not very smart. And I'd have some respect for him if he would have handled it like Phil Anselmo, and jump in there yourself and fix the prob. And who in the name of god would kick someone's ass cuz the singer for Staind told you to? I saw RATM many years ago and Zack coulda started a riot if he wanted. Dude was fired up and held the crowd in his hand.... but Staind??

ROFL I was about 15 and they ****ing kicked ass. I didn't have acne, a few zits here and there not enough to get proactiv.

Nickleback sucks ****ing balls, don't put them in the same sentence at Linkin Park.

Good lord. We actually left a bit early and caught a cab home from the Westin.

Rockfest just isn't fun. It's nothing but people drinking WAY too much all day long, fights, drama, and people getting naked that have no business getting naked in public. Maybe if I were like 22 again it might be fun, but as it is it's just a white trash extravaganza. Even people watching isn't reason enough to go to one of these again.

Rockfest is kind of like Worlds of Fun - it used to be fun, but now it just kind of sucks and is depressing.

He didn't go.

Sounds like my experience waiting in line to pay at Walmart. Hate that place, but I needed something for my game and it was on the way. Seriously **** Walmart and most of their shoppers.

...well then tell that 15 year old slut to make better life decisions than to crowd surf on top of 50k drunk rednecks in downtown Kansas City. **** that.

Ha, it's pretty damned close, I'd say!

the people who go to rockfest probably dont use computers

Or sunscreen, codoms, toilet paper, toothbrushes, deodorant, exercise, hearing protection, helmets, text books, smart phones, newspapers, sidewalks, headlights, window screens, bug spray, haircuts or dentists.

Someone on CP HAS to be the parent that let their 15 year old go to Rockfest.
Why would you EVER let a 15 year old go to Rockfest. There is no way 15 year olds are into KORN and STAIND.

To me they don't sound the same but they're the same commercial radio rock. Not that I'm a music expert or anything, just not what I like. But music is about how you interpret it, and how it hits you. I bet out in Cali there's tons of bands that are equally goo or better than most the commercial bs that most don't know about. I know lots if the bands I jam to are from Cali.

"Korn, Five Finger Death Punch, Staind, Killswitch Engage, Steel Panther, Black Label Society, Pop Evil, Adelita’s Way, Escape the Fate, Soil, The Pretty Reckless, Heaven’s Basement, Eve to Adam and Nothing More."

LMAO

that kicks so much ass.

not sure why all the negativity. dude believed he was doing right. his heart was in the right place. not a staind fan....but I like this guy.

went to rockfest once several years back. for the life a me I can't remember who...but the headliner was a band I really wanted to see. the only real enjoyment for me was people watching. man....people are knucking futs!

Did somebody say rock?

Fixied

lol.
"Hey Joe Rogan. I smoke rocks

The girlfriend wanted to go. I said I'd like to see Korn and that's it. Thankfully that idea never came to fruition.

She is trying to drag me to country stampede too, which is causing me to have suicidal thoughts.

I saw Korn in concert like 15 years ago. That's probably the last time Korn was worth seeing in concert. As if they ever were.

Staind as well.

Looking at that putrid lineup just makes me scratch my head. The only time I've ever been inclined to consider Rockfest was like five years ago when STP or Velvet Revolver was the headliner. I cared so much, I can't remember which band it was.

Sorry, but Nothing More is ****ing fantastic.

I hate 5 finger death punch so, so very much.

It was STP, that's the only year I've been. Its reeked so badly of BO that I had friends blow cigarette smoke in my face because it smelled better. But the STP part of the show was awesome.

I thought they used to have some big names back in the day (Tool, Black Sabbath, etc) but looking at previous lineups and I'm totally wrong. The one in 1995 included: Cheap Trick, Allman Bros, Fleetwood Mac, Kansas, and Pat Benatar. Lord, how that station has changed.

I've been to a couple of those type of big, multiband shows throughout the eighties. It was a mellow vibe then. I think that 3rd woodstock when everyone rioted pretty much opened the flood gates of stupid , violent behaviour. I'm curious about Bonnaroo. But I wouldn't consider a Coachela or Lolla event. Much less a "rock" fest.

I wanted to go this year-but really didn't like any of the bands all that well. I have seen Stained and they put on a heck of show. They opened for Godsmack at Standstoned (Verizon) and it rained most of the show. It was warm out and the rain felt great-awesome show.

Hopefully rock fest will get some decent bands next year and stop being cheap.

Why does he sing like that? It would be one thing if he were trying to be funny, but I don't think that's his goal. That's just ridiculous.

People who listen to Staind aren't the best and brightest. They are people who listen to Staind. They'd probably do it.

I though this was going to be some cry baby BS, but GOOD for him.
That is FD UP.

I've been to a few smaller reggae festivals. Always a great vibe! Lots of unity, dancing, hot women, and lots in GANJA!!! IRIE times!!

Today's Rock is just....sad.
I'm a rock/metal guy, and it's a tough day and age to be a rock/metal guy.

I love how CP is so above this. :rolleyes: Geez, what are you guys? A bunch of country music fans or something?
Personally, I'm not really a huge fan of any of those bands. But Korn, FFDP, KsE, and BLS would be worth seeing. I just went to Rocklahoma last weekend. Staind, FFDP, KsE, BLS, and some of those other bands were there, as well. Staind has kinda gotten lame over the years. I actually enjoyed their first couple albums before they got all radio friendly. FFDP put on one Helluva show. I also enjoyed KsE and BLS. How can you not appreciate Zach Wilde and the coolest sounding pinch harmonic of most any guitarist out there? :) Also enjoyed Down and Hellyeah. Those bands put on a good show.

As for Rockfest, the first time I went in 2006 I swear the setup was different than it is now (going off memory). Staind actually was good but they played a bunch of songs off the first album. Some other decent bands that year. But nowadays it seems that it is just a big old cluster. Went a few years ago and it rained....a lot. We got tired of the tight quarters and all the drunken idiots bumping into you wherever you walked, not to mention being soaked and miserable.

Drove by rockfest on the way to Loose Park to take some pics. Some crazy drunk bitch was walking/falling down the street-half in traffic while yelling at her boyfriend who was walking a few steps back with his head hanging down. Not sure what he did, but was getting an earfull. She had mud all over her, one flip flop on and her shirt off with just a bra on. Looks like it was a party this year!

I went to a Rockfest back in November and a Chiefs game broke out.

Maybe we just don't like buttrock? I mean, Zakk Wylde is an exception, but the rest of that lineup is garbage. The post nu-metal hair bands of today. Nickelback is all that is missing. Most of the world wonders how Nickelback can keep going platinum or selling out arenas. There is your answer. That aerial photo of 50,000 trailerpark denizens.

I wonder if this was the chick that was surfing during Stained?

Do VIP if you do go.

Not white trash enough.

The last one I went to was 2003, that was the last year I could get free tickets. It was pretty good, but too many shirtless white trash buffoons.

I would just dump her.

Tongue pierced, tatoo on each ass cheek, crowd surfing, giving the DIO horns. Yep, you are probably right. :D

Sounds like fun.....




If was 21 again.....

She said everything up to and including liquor would be free. But I dunno man, I just don't know..

It might be free, but there wouldn't be enough.

Maybe you guys are just getting old :shrug:

I'd be so, so, so much more inclined to go to that lineup vs. the butt-rock they play nowadays.

And LMAO about the BO. That sounds ****ing delightful. I would have liked to have seen STP though.

27.

Was an enormous Korn/Staind/Slipknot/(insert Nu-Metal band) fan as a teen.

Maybe the lineups they put out just aren't worth spending your time and money on.

:shrug:

I saw STP in the early '90s at a very small venue w/ only about 20 people in the crowd. They were a brand new "Buzz Bin" band on MTV at the time. Scott Weiland threw one of their cassettes into the "crowd" and I caught it. They were great.

I went to it once, it was the same one sedated is describing, the year that STP was headlining. We found out what time they were supposed to start playing and showed up about an hour before that.

I saw half of Godsmack and then Johnny Dare's 60 year old ass ran up on the stage and claimed they had broken the beer drinking record at sandstone. Some white trash guy climbed up the structure that had been erected to hold the lighting up over the stage and was headbanging up at the tope of it, security had to talk him down off of there. There was some sort of a brawl up on the lawn right behind us but that probably happens all day.

Mostly it was hairy, sweaty, sleeveless shirts or no shirt, rat tail wearing trailer-park kind of crowd, and the kind of women you'd expect to accompany them.

Killer Be Killed - you can thank me later.

Group composed of the vocalists from Soulfy, Mastodon and Dillinger Escape Plan. Fantastic stuff.

It was pretty much a t!t-fest. We had 3 girls to our right sitting on guy’s shoulders topless the entire show. A girl flashed my buddy for a cigarette. I saw more t!ts than when I go to a strip club. The women all seemed to go in knowing that this was mardi gras without the beads.

She is a lot older than 15.

That line up isn't bad man. You got a few bands in there that are retreads like Staind and such but Eve to Adam is a good newer band and FFDP are pretty fun to see live.

Killswitch Engage is good too. They are back with their original vocalist. Their metalcore sound isn't for everyone but I think the newest album is pretty strong. I saw them open for Lamb of God and they were solid.

It's coming back full circle right now, check out Cry of Love(similar to Bad Company) or Scarlet Carson, or even Rival Sons that have a Zeppelin sound to them. They're out there you just have to find it now through the menagerie of shit!

The STP show was at Libery Memorial. I went because my buddy had free tickets from his brother's guitar shop.

Must have been a different year then, this was in the early 2000s at Sandstone or whatever they are calling it now.
