I got to some of my favorate bands of all time all on the same stage it was the best concert ever for sure!

EDGEFEST KICKED ASS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I enjoyed it all! Loved gettin to SKILLET live, they rocked! I had already seen almost all of the other bands so I was really excited to see them and they kicked ass!

Excellent bands, excellent beer, and a great crowd. 11 hours of fun was definitely worth my $35.

Great show!! None of the bands disappointed!! It was hard it was fast and it rocked!

Absolutely freakin Awesome!! Loved it! Can't wait till next year!!

great lineup, venue was great. first time to edgefest, but won't be the last for sure.

This year was definitely the best yet!! You guys rocked it this year with the band lineup!!!

All around great show! It was put together very well. I only wish there were more places to sit from time to time.

Edgefest was AWESOME!!!! We had a blast! Every band was top notch and rocked their hearts out! Of course, my favourite was Godsmack!!!! The only problem was people that squeezed in the front but just stood there! How can you not want to bang your head, dance or at least scream and put you hands in the air?

Mud fights were fun & too bad for those who were scared to get down and dirty. I'm an Edgefest addict for life since last year's venue in Little Rock, Ar. \\m/ \\m/

like they say,biggest and best party in arkansas!Every year

This concert was amazing! Silversun Pickups rocked. Billy Talent was phenominal. My husband and I went to the concert for our belated honeymoon. 30,000+ screaming, dancing, awesome fans and some really great tunes made for a really great time. We will be making this an annual trip from now on. We traveled 5 hours from Michigan to Toronto and it was soooooo worth it. 102.1 The Edge hosted a fantastic show.

102.1 The Edge put on a great fest. I loved the lineup and the energy of the bands and the fans. I've been to quite a few concerts and this one tops my list. So much crowd surfing and fun. The Silversun Pickups rocked and Billy Talent was fantastic.

It was awesome. I really only went for Billy Talent. Had no clue who any of the other bands were and I didn't leave knowing any of them either. Line up could have been better. Electric tent was pretty good and change of music. The VIP section was awesome to get away from the crowd and get a beer or food and not having to wait a long time. There was no VIP floor access as it was stated. If you have VIP, then have the front blocked off completely and away from the mosh pit.

Music was awesome!, loved the new dance tent! Nice that stages were further apart this year - but too far - had to keep moving around to overhear something new, not planned - and it was too hot to do that! A few shelter tents or mist tents would have been humanitarian! Also, more water refill stations. Layout was different and reduced congestion, but was confusing and easy to miss stuff- and people watching wasn't as easy - sure I missed someone or two! !Port-a-potty lines were much shorter and not congested this year -

Great day, VIP seats were a waste of money. Didn't even get the t-shirt that was supposed to be a part of the package

Although it was a long, hot day, and my energy level was not where I'd have liked it to be, Billy Talent came on and rocked out! They could not have been tighter! USS got the party going right - loved them. Dirty Heads where way better than I thought they'd be, which was great! Sheep Dog's and Silversun Pickups delivered great performances as well. It was just too hot at that point to fully appreciate them both. Death from above 1979, eh not that impressed by them, but the crowd seemed to be loving them so to each his own, eh? Again Billy Talent blew me away - they know how to deliver a high energy performance that you just gotta jam to!! All and All the whoile event was great!

This year was my first Edgefest and absolutely loooved it! First of I'm from Buffalo, NY, so anytime I can come to Toronto is a good time, but Edgefest was unforgettable. Every band I got the chance to see was phenomenal. Unfortunately I missed USS, but I've seen them before so it was OK. The Dirty heads were the first band I saw and they killed their set; it was awesome. Then came Young the Giant and I was very impressed by them. One complaint I do have is that the ATM machines were not working with my credit card and I'm not sure why, but that was a big inconvenience. I definitely would have spent more money if I had had access to it. The Sheepdogs were good as usual. I also partook in a few games that were offered and won a few shirts. The slip n' slide was super fun and cooled us off. We also got to play drunken badminton which was fun! The dance tent was a great addition. Said the Whale was really good... They have now become my new favorite band! And thanks to Edgefest I got to seem up close on the Side Stage. My three favorite bands of the night were Silversun Pickups, Death From Above 1979 and of course, the one and only BILLY TALENT!! I must say Billy Talent never disappoints and always puts on a killer show. My friend and I decided to go crowd surfing during their set and it was one of the best feelings in the world! Well thank you for putting on a great show 102.1!!!

The sound was really bad on the main stage! The bands were average. The side stage had great sound and most of the bands were great. Billy talent! Headliner. I don't think so! Silver sun pick ups rocked! Pretty much everyone else on the main stage were average! Billy talent was good, but not a headliner! I wouldn't go again if that was the line up! And you need more water refill stations. Thanks Sugarglidder

One of the best shows I have ever seen in my life.

EDGEFEST is the best music fest that i have ever attended. The worst part is how security doesnt care about the concert goers. they charge people $10 for a bottle of water and people are so crowded and dehidrated they pay it cause you cant get out to go to vendors. They need a new system of keeping people cool. Water hoses has been used at other festivals to prevent people from passing out from heat. Something needs to be done about this but other than that it is an awesome music experiance.

Seether and skillet put on an awesome show!!!! Loved the stage setup!

Please go back to the main stage and slide stage format. It made things less crowded feeling and gave different people a chance to get toward the front.

First off there was absolutely no seating! Was told you could not bring anything in with you so we didnt bring chairs. There were hardly any trash cans. No where to wash your hands after using the port a potty... Music was not very loud had to get close to stage to hear since I am short I could not see!! No re-entry having special dietary needs I had to leave to get something to eat that I could not obtain there and was not allowed to come back in!!! It was horrible and a waste of money!!

This was my third Edgefest and it was awesome, same as the last two years! I can't wait til next year :)

Overall the bands were great, but the two bands that stole the show were My Darkest Days and Three Days Grace were amazing! My Darkest Days rocked hard and engaged the crowd quite a bit. Three Days Grace was full of surprises, playing I Don't Care, Adam Gontier rapping, and bringing in a Limp Bizkit song.

this was an amazing concert that i would recommend to anyone and everyone who loves to rock!!! three days grace, seether, and avenged sevenfold put on the best shows by far<3 i loved it and cant wait till next year my only recommendation is more rock!!!!

the concert was excellent my only complaint about the whole thing was there were not enough trash cans and everyone was throwing there trash on the ground it was so nasty

I went to Edgefest in 2008 when it was at the Ampitheater and had 6 (?) bands. I loved it. It had seats available as well as standing area. There was plenty of room to move around and enjoy yourself. This year, however, it was so crowded that I was miserable all day long. I had drove about 2 hours so I stayed. I enjoyed Halestorm, Seether, and Stone Sour. My main reason for attending was Avenged Sevenfold because I had purchased tickets in 2008 to see them in Memphis (before the death of Rev) and they had backed out of the concert. So I was excited to finally be seeing them. However, by the time they got on stage, I was miserable, hot, claustrophobic, sick of being touched and tired of being brushed up against. I still remained excited to see them, but the sound quality during their performance was horrible...the little bit of background music (track) playing sounded like it was "drowning out" the band playing, and the band playing sounded like it was overwhelming Matt's singing. Next year, I would recommend going back to the Ampitheater, selling the number of tickets that the venue will comfortably accomodate, maybe working on sound quality, and providing trash cans/more trash cans.

This is my very first time ever going to any kinda of fest like this! Let me tell you, it was the greatest experience of my life! The crowd was great, the music was amazing, and the atmosphere screamed The Edge! I could not wait to see Avenged Sevenfold come onto the stage. My friend and I have been waiting so long to see them! Since we have seen them live, they have a new set of groupies! All the bands were awesome and seemed SO much better live. Halestorm's lead singer was amazing, Sevendust was great, Art of Dying was a great starter band, but A7X definitely knows how to end a show! The hosts did a great job with the bands; next year has been planned to go where ever it may be held!

Edgefest was the first big festival I have ever attended, and it was Edgefest's biggest crowd yet. No doubt that those 20,000+ people came to see Avenged Sevenfold. Gates opened at noon and bands started at 1. The excitement in the crowd could be felt all day long. After the first 10 bands had played you could feel a shift in the crowd. People were getting anxious for Avenged Sevenfold to finally take the stage. Once Stone Sour had played through half of their set people were very anxious. Around 9:30 Avenged Sevenfold took the stage. The crowd went completely insane. M. Shadows effortlessly belted through Nightmare, Critical Acclaim, introduced Arin and played Welcome to the Family. After a few more songs in their set it was time for, as M. Shadows said "For us to impress them". He asked for circle pits and he sure got them. At the end of their set they left the stage. A lot of people began to leave, apparently not knowing that they were doing an encore. M. Shadows, Synyster, and Arin came back out on stage and performed Fiction. Then Zacky Vengeance and Johnny Christ joined them and played Save Me. The show was then over, and everybody left with the biggest smiles on their faces.

The show from begining to end was amazing. All the bands were great. We will definitely go next year!!!

While i did enjoy a few of the bands, a few of the bands seemed just flat in my opinion. While i liked the energy that Skillet and Stone Sour brought to the stage the acts by Theory of a Deadman, Helmet, and Halestorm were lacking. I understand that a few of the bands had played in a city the night before but Three Days Grace was included in that group and while the singer seemed a little flat they still carried a high energy throughout the show. Also the headliner, Avenged Sevenfold, had pretty much the EXACT SAME SHOW as when i saw them last year on the Uproar Tour, extremely disappointed about this one. Something that did bother me was how the dj's from the radio barely even acknowledged that there was a second stage. All in all it was a very "average" show.

I had so much fun at edgefest! Even though there were so many people there it was still amazing. the bands were awesome! and there was definitely a lot of stuff to do. I thought it was good how the crowds at the bottom of the stages were closely monitored by the security officer. I saw them break up several mosh fights which helped me feel safe.

Basically this event was great! Would for sure recommend to any rock fan out there. I had only heard of about 7 of the 10 bands playing but still enjoyed the bands I didn't know. Skillet killed, Seether, Three Days Grace, were awesome! Hailstorm was balling!! Stone Sour was good but played too long and kind of brought the mood down. Avenged Sevenfold closed it out and brought everyone back up and were amazing! The best bands were Sevenfold and Skillet. The venue was well done. Two stages alternating between shows. Any true rock fan should go. I'll be going next year for sure!!

I didn't like the two stages being side by side. It meant you were up front for one or the other. The stages should have been spread out with more than one band playing at a time like music fests I've attended in the past.

Very cool show, it was awesome how there was pretty much non-stop music all day!!! Highlights were Three Days Grace & My Darkest Days!!!

Putting the stages side by side was genius! I didn't have to miss any of my favorite bands! I was having such a difficult time deciding where I wanted to be, I thought my head might explode, thank you for saving me from that fate. I have managed to get both of my teenagers to the VERY front now! My 17 year old daughter last year for FFDP and my 16 year old (guys never make it to the front) son this year for 7dust and 3 Days Grace. Am I the most awesome mom or what?! My daughter knows how to do it now and was at the front without my help! I am making sure to teach them how it is done. I will never forget the times that we have shared and I look forward to many more. We are all family! I love you all!! Peaceful and beautiful and chaotic all at the same time! I even got to eat a PeeP - WooHoo ")

the entire event was great! skillet was my favorite but i also was impressed by dark from day one.

This was my first rock concert. Man, talk about crazy people! It was an absolute BLAST!!! Best performances by Halestorm, Skillet, Art of Dying and My Darkest Days!

This show was AMAZING! I can not wait to go back next year! With 20 + thousand people behind me, I managed to stay on the barricade at the main stage. Such an unforgettable night :)

My favorite bands were skillet and three days grace. My husband loves a7x. We enjoyed our overall concert experience. The only complaint i have is how many people there were smoking marijuana. I'm in the marines and I regularly get random drug tests so I don't smoke it and the smell was very overpowering. Also A7X made a comment about girls showing their titties and girls making out with each other that was slightly offensive to me. The only reasons I didn't give this concert 5 stars.

loved this it was worth the drive and so much fun getting to meet some of my fav bands up close MY darkest days you rock and a7x out did it again cant wait to see whats next

Great show - thanks to 104.1 for putting it on - been the last few years and it's always a blast! Can't wait till next year!

The performances were good. A lot of older bands but they still played well. The worst part was that during Bad Religion's set the projection screens on either side of the stage came on and showed commercials. I thought it was so offensive to the band and to the fans.

I never had the pleasure of seeing The Offspring live and I must say that even though my expectations were high, they somehow managed to exceed them. They sound great live, are great musicians and play their music with passion and energy!

Great show all arround but Sublime with Rome was just the greatest, as a long time Sublime fan, I really love and appriciate the way they still include alot of the older songs from Sublime that didnt even get airplay like Slow Ride and Scarlett Begonias.. Rome is a great addition and sings each song with such heart, INCREDIBLE SHOW!

First of all I love going to concerts on reservations. I always feel like a welcomed guest not just a $ like a lot of venues. The crowd was great. The most upsetting thing i saw was a guy that stomped the ant hill I was sitting next to. The venue was well prepared and organized. Plenty of restrooms and the allowance to bring in your own water. Dislikes..Ticketmasters gouge and now their subsidiary Livenation running the consessions which brings $13 beers. The Bands were awesome. I loved that they were all backstage watching each other's acts. They all showed up to play and the sound was really great.

All the bands were great and my friend mentioned that after Sublime, he was good to go. Offspring was even better!

Lots of fun. Food and drinks are ridiculously overpriced.

Great concert! Limiting alcohol sales was crappy though.

Solid line up! Every band went hard and strong from start to finish. An awesome event.

Fun show. Lots of good bands. Sublime was awesome.

Went for USS and Ms Mr and ended up falling in love with Said The Whale. It was a great night. I despise when people say 'Epic'... But I don't think there is any other suitable word. LLOOVVEE!!!!

The set up of td echo beach was great especially how u could see the CN tower thru the stage. Made it very photogenic. Volume could have been a lil higher for some bands tho. Over all was a great show

It was an okay concert-fest type. The bands set lists weren't long enough. The Killers came on too soon during the day. Tickets were too expensive. The second stage was great.

Great show!! Our local radio station 104.1 The Edge did an amazing job the last two years with this event, and this year was unbelievable. Great lineup, can't wait till next year! CAKE was awesome!

Came to Edgefest 2013 in Albuquerque, NM to watch The Killers. Saw a few other bands play that were good. The Killers did an amazing job!!

The Killers were phenomenal! I haven't rocked that hard since seeing Muse in 2010. Cake was also fantastic. Didn't make it for the earlier bands, but these two were definitely worth the price of admission!

There was a great line up. I had a blast. The Killers, Cake, Shiny Toy Guns, Youngblood Hawke, Middle Class Rut, and Iamdinamiate were all awsome.

OMG! What a fabulous display of bands. They saved the best for last...the Killers know how to put on a show and they did all the songs we all want to hear!!!

Overall the lineup was amazing. I loved seeing the killers live. They put on a heck of a show! However, I wish the volume of their music was a little lower. It took away from hearing the vocals a bit. Great seats, overpriced food, but awesome music!

The bands were just meh the whole time. Cake was awesome however. The crowed seemed to suck. Bad religion is always great. The best part was the proposal.

Excellent performers !!!! Well worth the money and the 2 1/2 hour drive.

it was remarkable my husband loved it!! the mud added to all the fun. it was the second time we had went. will be going again if there are more good bands like those or in the ones in edgefest 6. rock on!!!

Edgefest was great this year! I went to see Adelitas Way, and also Papa Roach & Shinedown. Perfect weather (besides the earlier rain that made it muddy!), and it was very cool that all the bands did meet & greets!

The event was unforgettable and to meet the bands was awesome. I have been to many concerts in the last twenty years but never have I had so much fun. If you love rock, this is the event to go to every year.
