Dee Snider

Dee was fun and energetic. He mixed new with the old but the old never got old. The crowd was eager to hear the energetic Dee and his new band belt out you can't stop Rock and roll and the Price. Although it was not the same without the original members. We all enjoyed the charismatic group and the vibes they were laying down.

Great show! Dee Snider has so much energy. We would definitely see him again.

What a,show. Dee hasn't lost a step at all. Sounded great, crowd participation was amazing, he never stopped moving

Second year we have attended, all in all the bands rocked! However get rid of Lita Ford not a big crowd draw. Jack Russell's Great White, Warrant, Firehouse, Scrap Metal, and Winger all gave the crowd a hell of a show, took a while to get my hearing fully back(well worth it!!!!! We didn't stay for Dee just because he didn't interest us. Next year it would be nice to see more 1st time bands...Cinderella, Slaughter etc...

there was no reason to have an hour and a half break between fire house and scrap metal. theres enough break in between band set ups.

2 days of rock, and it was a lot of fun. Friday was mostly 70's night, with Sweet, April Wine, Foghat, and Blue Oyster Cult. I believe BOC was only band with more than one original member (they have 2), so it isn't quite the same as seeing the originals, but hearing songs like Fox on the Run, Ballroom Blitz, Roller, Slow Ride, & Don't Fear the Reaper live was incredible. Saturday was more 80's tunes featuring Jack Russell's Great White, Lita Ford, FireHouse, Scrap Metal (all-star band), Winger, Warrant, and headliner Dee Snider of Twisted Sister fame. I actually enjoyed the opener of the day Great White probably the most. I think Saturday was too many bands and too long overall (ended about 11 hours after it started) and 1:45 delay between FireHouse and Scrap Metal was way too long. But it was a memorable experience for sure.

Great Show. Grand Casino you did an awesome job. Can't wait for next year

First of all the Bands were amazing, We really wanted to see the Saturday Lineup - 80s Hair Bands - , But were also impressed by how the 70s night Bands rocked our faces off!! The Bands and Music was great. The stage is a great sounding stage, with a canopy over the front Pit Area, this was very nice. The Weather was awful again this year, the first year it rained, and the second year was very cold, while this is not the concert promotors fault, But it kept people from getting really fired up or nuts. We had two issues that need to be addressed, first the camping, Those of us that arrived first were put in the back, the farthest from the Stage, They need to give the first people the best camping opportunity. Second the wristbands that got you into concert were not over and under 21 specific, if you wanted a beer you had to have an ID on you, and you could not take that beer back to your camper. We do not carry our wallets or purses so give me a 21 wristband, we just quit buying beer up at the concert. I also feel the price is a little high 120 for pit, but 20 camping was awesome

Everything from beginning to end was perfect! We couldn't believe how reasonably priced the drinks and food were. Everyone we met was so nice, we loved that you didn't need tickets for drinks, and the stage and everything was perfect. The only complaint I would have is not being able to record videos on a cell phone. I didn't quite understand why that was, since it was outside. The bands, though, were all amazing, each and every one! Dee Snider was one of the best concerts of my life. If you have the same lineup in the future, '70s and/or '80s rock, we will be back every year!!

Dee Snider and his band stole the show! Everyone sounded awesome though. Good times!

What a great cause, what a great event put on by Dee and friends!!!! Every performer was a surprise to see play at such an intimate setting. My kids and I loved every minute. My younger one wont forget getting a high five from Constantine. Dee singing an acoustic version of 'The Price' was awesome! and singing Phantom of the Opera - Dee is the man! Cant wait for the new album. Thanks Dee for a great nite!

I think Dee brings a presence that is outstanding. His ability to run this event and make it really fun and real is phenomonal. And all for a good cause.

The whole show was great! I love the 80's theme, it was so cool! I'm just bummed the show didn't last longer. Time just flew by....Like it's said, all good things must come to an end.

Great show. Loved the video intro and then playing the Sammy Hagar song There's only one way to rock. Nice set list by each band. Hopoing that Jeff would haved played Little Suzi, but can't complain. After the 3rd time of seeing Lita, finally got to see the hits. She . was on fire. Nice touch with the family, especially when Lita played Cherry Bomb. That was not expected.

All the bands were great. Sounded fantastic. No one was wasted or sloppy. It had a mix of hard to moderate metal and 80's prom power ballads. I love Dokken and was not disappointed, Don may have had some voice issues but it was negligible. He is a pro.. I was worried about not having George Lynch on axe but John Levin was most excellent. He shredded like a man and is very impressive. Apparently, he is also an attorney! Dee Snider is an incredible showman. He is funny, and in the best shape of any 60 year old I have ever seen in my life! He was amazing. That is not an exaggeration. He runs around like a 20 year old. He is in incredible condition. As I said, he is like a rock-n-roll comedian. Very funny. Also, I loved how they played Led Zeppelin, ACDC in addition to Twisted Sister hits.. Dee Snider and his band were very impressive and fun. It was a really good time.

What a GREAT weekend of RocknRoll music!!! My favorite bands were Firehouse,Foghat,Winger!!! We had great seats on the side of the stage and Security did a GREAT job of keeping people back so we could see the stage clearly. The only thing that was disappointing was there wasn't a vendor to sell the Band's merchandise.

Really enjoyed the show. Especially enjoyed Sweet and Foghat on Friday. On Saturday was blown away by Jack Russell's Great White!! Also really loved Winger, Warrent and Firehouse. Very happy that this year there were t-shirts with the name of the event and all the bands on it.

I had seen Dee and his band once before in CT and he Rocked it! This time my sister and I were front and center. She happens to be a bigger Twisted fan that I am and had to experience the front row at a Dee Snider show. He played old stuff, new stuff, joked, laughed about life and break ups and losing great talents in the past few years, he talked about the tragedy that happened with his mother, but stayed forever professional. His 3 piece band of a sexy Irish Blond bass player, an Italian Stallone Guitar player and a drummer that can peel the skin off your face. THEY BLEW IT UP AGAIN! The opening Band **Killcode** also from NYC will ROCK OUR FACE OFF EVERY TIME! With Sexy As Hell Frontman Tom Morrisey, Hella Lead Guitar Player Chas Banellis, Percussion Picasso Rob Noxious on Drums, The Silver Fox BadAss Bass Erric Bonesmith and the ever Entertaining Riffs and Stomping of DC Gonzales on Guitar. This band is moving up quick!

My wife and I attended this show on October 27th with another couple and had an amazing evening of live rock-n-roll from one of rocks greatest frontmen. Dee still hits the high notes and knows how to rock a crowd.

All the bands rocked. Firehouse was perfect, haven't lost anything from the 80's. Dokken and Dee were awsome as well. The only bad part was the lead singer of Warrant. I understand that the original lead singer is deceased, but this new guy isn't very good. And it seamed that the rest of the band over compensated for this by playing louder to cover his voice. But well worth the $75 for two to see this show.

Firehouse was wonderful as always. Entertaining, music sounded great. In my opinion, they should've headlined the show! Warrant was good, but their microphone kept cutting out. Dokken sucked! Don was so drunk and he walked off the stage. Dee Snider is a jerk. He played "We're Not Gonna Take It' early on and told us if that is waht we came to hear, we could leave.

Went to see Dokken and Warrant, but have to say Dee Snider rocked it. Voice was incredible.

Firehouse put on a great show with energy. Wish the drummer would have performed a solo, he's amazing & CJ sounded good. Warrant was good as well. Dokken has seen better days, which is unfortunate since that was my main reason for coming. Turn up the sound on your microphone so we can hear your voice Don Dokken! Dee Snider was better than expected. Funny & in great shape for 60! High energy & great way to end the concerts. Just stay on stage between songs instead of running behind the speakers, drink in front of me. I don't care, the other feels suspicious.

All the bands were awesome to watch. I really enjoyed watching Dee Snider.

The sound man made Firehouse sound terrible, Warrant started out good and the wheels fell off mic troubles songs just not sounding right, Dokken was excellent and Dee Snider average

Whole concert kicked ass the bands were loud and proud liked all of them lots of energy.

It was one of the best concerts my husband and I attended. Great performers. Eddie Trunk was good. We enjoyed the interviews between bands. Overall, just a kick-ass concert. One doesn't think you can get that type of quality at a state fair but you would be wrong. We saw ZZ Top at the Nebraska State Fair years ago - again a great concert with great seats. These guys come to play no matter where the venue is. In these smaller settings, your chances for great seats go up 10 fold. I scored high for birthday gift giving this year!!

The first 2 bands, Firehouse and Warrant were good, but the kick drum was a little loud and kind of drowned out the vocals. The problem was fixed when Dokken went on stage. They rocked hard. Dee Snider was amazing and brought a lot of energy to the stage.

I was very pleased with the show. Haven't went to a concert in years. Really glad I went to this one.

The show had 4 bands that started with Firehouse, Warrant, Dokken then closed with Dee Snider (Twisted Sister). Firehouse was great, then followed-up by Warrant. I was completely satisfied at that point. In fact, Warrant should have closed the show out as the headliner as they were outstanding. I grew up listening to all the bands but Firehouse and Warrant didn't disappoint at all completely satisfied my 80's Rock Fix!! Robert Mason and the rest of Warrant know how to deliver the goods!!

If you're an 80's rock fan, shame on you if you miss this show! Every performer was beyond awesome and transported you back to one of the greatest decades! And the amount of energy Dee has is mind-blowing! Stop taking selfies!!

Dokken kilt it covering old Doiors tunes They need to headline alone again

The bands were great best concert at iowa state fair!

Dee Snyder was amazing!!! So much energy and very entertaining!!!

Dee Snider put on one HELL of a show!! The energy and enthusiasm displayed by the crowd is proof enough that Dee Snider continues to ROCK and always will! His concert was fricken AMAZING!! Dokken is as great as EVER! He still carries that impressive sound masterfully as if it was 1981 all over again. Firehouse started the show and set the stage for the fans to rock!

the bands were awesome but the people were better. I want to thank N for his generous offer that was misinterpreted by a drunken Beast. I appreciate your kindness and apologize for the inconvenience. On the bright side, my eyes are finally open - long overdue. Thank you N G

Had a really great time. Attended the First annual event last year, and was glad to see it was two days this year. The music wad great. Every band sounded awesome. Laughed, sang, danced, meet new friends! Only complaint was lack of organization regarding VIP Rock Package. No direction was given on admission to event and none of the employees knew weber to send us for our free items. There was no medium tshirts ordered, which is kind of crazy. Inconvenient to stand in the separate lines to get free buffet and gambling certificates. Missed start of Lita Ford because of delays.

So this was one of the best concerts I've ever been to. The band scrap metal was absolutely amazing and D Schneider who is always fantastic was very personal during the entire show. My biggest surprize was Jack Russells Great White! His voice was intense and powerful (new fan here) I will never miss this fest. Food and beverage prices were very low. Only odd thing was the lack of merchandising. Every seat there is excellent.

This was a great 2 day event. Every band was great!

This event was a great day of rock. The only problem I had was camping wasn't available onsite without buying a high price package, and the hotel was full, so we had to stay 1 1/2 hours away.

I enjoyed the bands this year but I thought overall the last years groups were better and the hour and half break was way to long when it was so cold.

A great time had by all. I will be back next year.

I felt that all the bands really brought there "A" game --My 2 favorites if I had to choose were Firehouse and Scrap Metal. We ended up meeting the Bassist by the elevators and the lead singer in the casino area from Firehouse--- they both took a few minutes to chat and shake our hands which to me was very classy.

Other than the cold from this being so late in the season, this concert never disappoints. Love the hairbands!
