Beatstock

-started at 11am but bands didn't come until 12 or 1pm -security was a bit rude and wouldn't really let the crowd dance near stage -awesome music all day -good food -awesome $5 lemonade <3 GO! you won't regret it...some really popular bands and some not so popular

The whole thing was awlful. Definitely not worth the money. Bought 395 vip package, lawn seat people in our seat. Did not get backstage passes (They ran out) wut. i paid for them No knowlwdge of itineary. WASTE OF MONEY.

I go to Beatsock every year at Jones Beach and it has always been amazing. It got better and better every year. This year, however, it was completely pathetic. The Brookhaven Amphitheatre is a horrible venue and the music isn't even loud. The tailgate was lame. The acts were boring. I went in the show and it was such otrture that I only stayed a little over an hour. They got rid of freestyle acts and tried to appeal to children by having Big Time Rush and the Iconic Boys right in the middle of the show. I cannot begin to say how disappointed I wa with Beatstock. What used to be one of the highlights of my summer became a huge disappointment. I will never go to Beatstock again. Party105 was awful and will never compare to KTU. This year's Beatstock was one of the worst concerts I have EVER been to.. Two thumbs way down... Pathetic..

Beatstock was by far the worst concert I've ever been to. The advertisement stated "live performances by:" and listed dozens of names. None of the people listed were actually there except a band for fourteen year old girls. The stage was empty majority of the concert, except for the stereo that played music by the featured artists. Some black guy started singing a 50 cent song, I'm pretty sure the real 50 cent wouldn't wear a khaki outfit. So pretty much i wasted $75 for my friend and I to drive an hour to listen to the radio. The only thing that would have boosted my mood during this horrible experience was alcohol, which of course ran out shortly after my arrival. We ended up leaving the concert hours before we had expected, It's pretty safe to say that I will never be returning to another beatstock, it was a waste of my day off.

It was amazing! Shaggy was just as good as expected

wasnt what i was expecting. small crowd and the artists did not try to excite the crowd

It was very hot, bathrooms were filthy, one member of Big Time Rush was not there, and most of the concert was like listening to the radio (a dj played most of the music). Not great at all!

It was a very hot day got their with my family at noon when the concert was to start but it didn't start until around 1:15pm. Wanted to go to my car in which i was given a hard time since they told me once your in your in...can you believe 10 hours with children and I am not allowed to go back to my car for a chair, jacket and or anything??? The acts were ok but what happened to Kelly Rowland, The Cover-girls, Coro??? Many of the acts I didn't know...the housewives of new jersey and daughter of a housewife was on too long!! The acts like Shaggy didn't sing his entire songs that we wanted to hear in its entirety. Robin S. was super and thank goodness for her. I spent a lot of money on 5 tickets but yet people whom bought cheap seats were allowed to sit by us and or below because the place was not packed and the MC's said they could. If I knew this I would have bought lawn seats for half the money. First time at the ampitheatre and I loved the place although the bathrooms were a little gross. Heard KTU beatstock did a much better job.

very disappointed with the venue, not worth the money. been to past beatstocks and cant compare to beatstock 2011. ended very early

When I ordered the tickets on line I was not aware that this was going to be an all day event. The show did not start until 1:15. There was no ATM available so when I ran out of cash I was screwd. I took my 6 1/2 year old daughters to see their favorite band "BTR". They had to sit through music for 3 hours that was just ridiculous. Disco Music that I heard when I was growing up. I am 45yrs. old. Then to hear music that was from U Tube. I don't get it? Then I found out that Big Time Rush was going to be on between 6 and 8 pm. By 4:30 my daughters wanted to call it quits. They were there since 11:30. I am disappointed that I didn't get to see them. It is two days later since the concert which was supposed to be my last hoorah with my daughters for the summer. I lost on ticket money. Enough said.

Coro was excellent- Beatstock needs to have more freestyle artists added. Shaggy was very disappointing. The seats were good but they really need more security. People who were on the grass kept bouncing into the seats that were paid for at a higher price.

Half the performers that were suppose to be there weren't. The revenue was great The DJ's didn't keep the crowd into it.

Waited in line for 3 hours to see Iconic Boys for "promises" meet and greet. Then they left. No one was there to let anyone know what was going on. They did the same for Big time Rush. Actually going to dispute this with American Express because I never got to see the show opr Iconic Boys

I like the fact of a 10 hr concert. It was great !!

The event was very frustrating....... from the time we had to wait to get in and the constant long breaks in between the performances. People were leaving early angry and bored. The cost of the tickets was very in expensive and it was local which was great.

in all it was horrible...nothing compared to when it was in jones beach nokia theatre....may be because it was by a new host...but security had no clue as to their jobs...kids all over the place standing on chairs blocking views...what i paid to be in front didnt matter cause the radio station invited all in rear to occupy empty front seats which was unfair 10 dollars opposed to over 100 dollars to be in front....over all unorganized and some acts that were promised never performed....only good part was big time rush and iconic boyz for my children....never again will i go to this show....

ridiculous amount of waiting on line for doors that were supposed to open at 11-baking in the sun for an hour and a half was not part of the plan-2nd they shouldve specified that this would be all about the disney band so the older people couldve come later and if they organized it right-the disney wouldve gone on earlier so the little ones wouldnt be waiting around all day and the older ones couldve enjoyed more

I've been to numerous events and this was the worst by far. The staff was rude. The food was horrible. Not to mention that the people working in the food area were constantly trying to rip you off. The stage looked like it was part of a high school performance. There was duct tape on top of the stage which looked like a 3 year old put it together. There was more commercials than there were live singers.....I'm sorry but a price tag of about 150 per ticket there shouldn't be any announced advertisements... after all it wasn't a free concert!

I'm 45 years old and I took my kids to see BTR. I did not expect to have so much fun myself. The venue was awesome. We were able to get up and walk around. There was so much music from when I was younger. I loved it. My kids were so excited about BTR. Can't wait until next year! Hopefully Beatstock 2012 will be at the Brookhaven Amphitheater again.

katy perry was very very very alsome at the nassua colliseum
