I thoght the concert was incredible. The music, the people, the energy. I had a great time. I only wish the bands would have played longer sets. On the other hand, the brunch at the beach at mandaly bay? Didn't go off at all. I went with a few others that were there, and there was no dj and no brunch. What happen?

When I first heard about this I could not wait to buy my tickets. I bought mine 2 months before which was good. I went for my 21st Birthday and I can tell you that this was the best birthday present i have ever bought myself and I would gladly do it again every year.

This was a great show, organized better than any concert I've been to before! Short wait to get through security, no wait at beer tent, and great bands. The port-a-pots were a long walk, which could have been a problem at times and children were allowed in, which was not appropriate for this type of show.

The Godfather package needed more organization & better bathrooms !!!! Not right to pay so much money to be treated like cattle maybe sold too many seats out of greed by organizers would have been nice to have met or gotten autographs pictures with bands?

I am still blown away by this concert. So many awesome bands in one place over two days. We were able to get pretty close to the stage for every band we wanted to see. My only regret is that I couldn't see every band I wanted to see. I just can't say enough how awesome this whole experience was. Loved seeing all the local bands on Saturday, like Adelita's Way. They so rock! Avenged Sevenfold was just awesome. Sunday was even better. 10 Years, Sick Puppies, Seether, and Three Days Grace, and Godsmack brought the house down! I didn't sit down for 8 straight hours cause I didn't want to miss any of the mainstage bands. All the bands really put themselves out there and made it great because it was the last day of long tours for most of them.

The lineup for the 48 hours festival was great and the bands were all spot on! For 99 dollars for two days you couldn't beat it. The Debauchery VIP was a complete and total waste of time and money. There was enough seating for about ten people and the rest had to sit on the pavement like anyone else who wanted a seat. Nobody seemed to know what was going on with getting a t-shirt that was included and the viewing area was not too good for seeing the stage. The bathrooms were nasty and altogether for 250 dollars compared to 99 for GA it was a total waste of money. Being that this was the first 48 hours festival I would like to think they will get better over time with the VIP stuff but other than that the bands and the venue were awesome!

The 48 Hour Festival in Vegas was amazing, has a ton of bands that were headliners. I'm glade to see we could get all the bands together for one concert in Las Vegas on the Strip. Everyone did 40 min setlist, we have to get Sevendust on the main stage next time.

Overall I loved this festival! the stages were close enough to walk back and forth the lineup was amazing - easy to get in and out of the gate- back drop of the Luxor was amazing at night!! My only recomendation would be more picnic tables to sit and eat at and in between sets and port a pottys in more than the back corner of the venue and maybe more of them

Overall the event was planned pretty well. Some major complaints are that the $10,000 cabanas were so far from the stage that it just seemed wrong. All those folks got were complimentary bottles of Grey Goose and a dressed up kiddy pool. We purchased the Debauchery tickets and these tickets were not worth $250. The discounted drinks were discounted by one dollar. The VIP tent was better located then the cabanas, but there was not enough seating or tables. I don't understand why the planners couldn't of provided ample seating. These tickets were a rip off. Almost all the bands were great. Korn, Godsmack, and FFDP put on great shows and their stage energy was on fire. Avenged played many great songs but they only came alive for the Rev's tribute. We missed seeing BFMV.

I love how the concert was outdoors. There were so many people yet there was still so much room. I was really excited to see how many bands participated in this event. I hope they decide to come out again and maybe even Las Vegas will consider sponsoring the vans warped tour here.

This was an amazing show. KoRn was awesome!! Godsmack, Seether, Five Finger Death Punch, Three Days Grace were all great as well. This big surprise was Sick Puppies and Butcher Babies! A couple of thing could've made the show better: 1) Rev Theory and Bullet For My Valentine were not in the show although they were announce as part of the bill... 2) Food and beer were too expensive and not that good.

Amazing concert, all the bands where awesome and rocked out hard core. Being able to see that many awesome bands in one place during one weekend event was more than worth the 100$ for both days, its practically 10+ concerts in once event. The only unfortunate thing was that most of the bands didnt get to play out a full concert full of songs, but they did each play for a good amount of time.

The size of the venue was great and more than enough room to see the show without fighting people over positions. Booze was served along with all sorts of amazing vendors and free Rockstars! Cant feel unsafe when armed police are all around! FFDP and A7X performed to their epic standards and made it completely worth it.

Korn was incredible like knew they would be :) and I got to see Godsmack for the first time and they were awesome! I was really impressed by 10 Years and Sick Puppies which i haven't heard much of or at all but they were great! Seether I think were having some technical difficulty's but i still enjoyed them and Three Days Grace i think could have been a little better but i thought they still did a good job.

The first day Five Finger Death Punch made the day. Avenge Seven Fold was pretty good. The second day was good. Three Days Grace was really good. Then Korn played and turned the night into awesome. I have never seen Korn live before. I have gone to A LOT of concerts, I'm 62 yrs. young and love metal, and I must say that Korn is the best live show I've ever seen!!!

I was a litle disappointed in the entire festival. I, like a lot of other people spent hundreds of dollars to attend and I don't think it is fair that you have to purchase artist merchandise for an autograph. I flew in from Atlanta and only had myself to take care of. I shudder to think about the amount of money a family spent for the entire weekend. I also have to say I was ticked off that Sevendust was relegated to the second stage. They are more than ready to sit at the grown ups table. One thing that I did appreciate was the picnic tables, although they could have been under a tent too. It was extremely hot. That being said, I had an awesome time. I would definitely be back next year.

Avenged Sevenfold was by far the best show I've seen in a very long time. Godsmack was also very good. They should have been the headliner on Sunday instead of Korn.

48 Hours Festival was amazing .. I went only for 2 bands .. Godsmack & Korn .. Korn was the main band i went for .. I had never seen them live .. I'm glad i finally got to see them perform .. Their setlist couldn't have been better.. They definitely ROCKED THE SHOW!!!!!!!! .. Great band to close the event.. Best part of this experience was being FRONT ROW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I will definitely go to another Korn show .. \\m/(>_<)\\m/

I scheduled my leave from Afghanistan to attend this event. I got to see a few of the bands my girl and I really enjoy and it was FANTASTIC. The one band that I was looking forward to was BFMV (Bullet for my valentine) but they had some emergency and couldn't play. Otherwise the event overall was a very good venue, the acts were of course top notch. You should absolutely do it every year!

it would have been way better and more enjoyable if it had started in the evening through out the night, the fact that it started in the afternoon was not cool it was ridiculously hot. and the alcohol was pricey! i had to survive on that free energy drinks from the rockstar tent.

The event was a 2-day metal show with a fabulous line-up, however I don't think it was planned very well. There was no way to see the second stage if you had a good view of the main stage, therefore fully half the bands were impossible to enjoy. Also, one couldn't carry in water bottles and it was difficult to reach the vendors once the crowd assembled. This was better addressed Sunday when vendors walked thru the crowd. Overall, the music was fabulous and I really got a lot of rock on.

This was the first 48 Hours Festival so there were a few problems. The stage set up was horrible. If you did not want to loose your front row spot at the main stage, you did not get to see any bands that played on the second stage. The port-a-poties were disgusting pretty much the whole time and the sink were always out of water. It wasn't clear whether re-entry was allowed or not. The prices on everything were outragous. Water was $4, beer was $10 Other than those things, the music and bands were unforgetable. It was one big party and I would do it all again.

I flew in from the Midwest just for this show and had the Godfather VIP ticket to make it a memorable weekend. It was, but not all good memories. The bands were great, Hollywood Undead is a new favorite and Seether my staple. The staff all around was great, really enjoyed the interaction with them. The VIP "status", not so much. I wasn't expecting a lot, but I was expecting what was marketed. I see a lot of cattle where I live and being herded in and out of our seats after each set, I knew then just how the cattle feel. I understand there were to be hiccups along the way for the inaugural event, I just didn't fathom they would be as blatant and as many as there were. I will not be going back nor will my friends. The redeeming factor of the debacle that was the 48 Hours Festival Godfather VIP tragedy? Getting my photo taken with Shaun Morgan of Seether.

I might have liked the concert more if I hadn't spent the extra money for a VIP upgrade. The bands were pretty good - Godsmack completely owned the stage and showed everyone else how it was done and Avenged Sevenfold was also amazing. But the seats for VIP were further away than all the general admission seats. I knew the number would be limited, but there were about 20 total seats and it seemed like at least a hundred VIPs. On Saturday, no one could tell us how to get our laminates, collectable tickets or t-shirts. Everyone we asked had a different answer, including the management of the place. Then, on Sunday, we got our stuff but by then almost all the larger sizes of t-shirts were sold out so we still didn't get everything we expected. The drinks were a little cheaper in the VIP tent, but not enough to make it worth the extra price. They could have at least elevated the VIP area. Or if that wasn't possible, not having a big black barrier between the VIP area and the stage would have helped - you couldn't see the stage from most of the places in the VIP area. Overall, the upgrade to VIP was a complete waste of money and I'd never do it again.

The show was great! All the bands were awsome! Stage set up was great, timing was good, didn't miss any of the bands. Really my only complaint is that they ran out of water at the bathroom sinks and toilet paper by the end of the night, other than that for a first time show it all went well!!

We watched the main stage the most, would loved to have be able to see some of the bands on second stage, too close to together. Sevendust on other stage was really great, from what I heard. A lot of the young bands on main stage were amazing!!! We listen to Sirius Octane at work and really enjoyed seeing these kids live!!!! Please have this festival every year. I think it is a great venue for the Legends, as well as the new bands.

I had a great time at the show, and it was by far the best concert I've been to yet. It had a great compilation of groups, and I enjoyed every bit of all the performances. I really hope that you put this show on again next year, I already have plans to go back next year and take my wife, older brother, and sister-in-law. Thank you to all the groups who performed, you were all amazing and made my weekend the best birthday present that I have had in a long time.

They kept sneaking in bands that were not on the list. Very cool!!! I had an awesome time, a time to remember. Its all about the experience. I even found the singer to Sevendust on the strip and took a pic with him. So excited.... woohoo. Very near to the mash pits, scary and exciting all at the same time. Will do it again next yr if there is one.....

The list of bands was impressive and the music was better. Sitting in the heat of Vegas we where blasted by the metal of numerous bands that played on for two days. Avenge Sevenfold, Korn, Five Finger Death Punch and Three Days Grace rocked the desert, but the best moment was Sully setting the rock world on end with his drum set and Godsmack showed me why the are rock kings.

I have been to literally hundreds of shows w/ most of them vip (if not bought, then through people/bands I know.) I have never once felt so ripped off by a promoter that promised things and did not deliver!! THIS IS NOT TO SAY THE BANDS / LINEUP WERE NOT AWESOME!! THEY WERE!! BUT YOU CAN SEE ALL THE BANDS IN DIFFERENT VENUES ACROSS THE COUNTRY.....DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY PLANNING A TRIP TO VEGAS AROUND THIS SHOW.....if your a local I'm sure you felt it was an awesome show....but about 100 complaints that I have visually seen and read have been removed from their Facebook page...also myself along w/ others have been banned for complaining!! NO WAY TO TREAT PEOPLE THAT SPENT 1000'S OF $$$!

Bought the Godfather VIP package for myself and friend for her bday present, but was very disappointed because it didn't provide everything that was supposed to be included. The first night we couldn't get back up to see Avenged Sevenfold because they changed entry to people with "universal" passes only. On Sunday morning we walked to the Mandalay Bay only to find the Hangover Brunch had been cancelled without notice. The second day we had to choose which side of the stage we wanted to sit on; we selected the right because it had the concierge tent, although it was advertised that both sides of the stage would have concierge tents. We were then made to leave after each act finished and made to wait until right before the next act went on before we could go back up to sit down. We felt like anything but VIPs. Also the side speaker on stage right kept cutting in and out both days. I understand this was the first year, but its also Vegas and you guys should know what you are doing by now. Don't make promises you can't keep, pay people back when you mess up. If you plan on doing this next year, I hope you fix all the glitches.

This concert was unbelievable. We have been to quite a few rock festivals the past couple years- most included many of these same bands- but to have them all in the same venue truly kicked ass! We traveled from Florida for this and the level of entertainment did not disappoint! The shows all rocked, but Vegas needs to learn how to host a festival. Of all cities, you would think they could pull it off...but they tried to keep it too Disney. Lighten up, Vegas!

48 hour festival was great! Good performances from all the bands and some simply great from others. The sound was good for an outdoor venue. The sets were a bit too short. I would have liked to see longer times for some of the bigger bands. The two stages were a good idea, but the timing was off and you had to choose who you wanted to see. On Sunday, Sevendust played on the small stage and Three Days Grace started before they were over. The VIP section was too far back and over to the side for really good viewing and the sound was off.

VIP ticket = $2 discount on well drinks.....that is it. The 'vip' parking lot costs VIP ticket holders 30 bones a day. Every rent-a-cop on the 'security' staff was a pain in the ass and we had to educate nearly every one of them as to where we were allowed to go and what their job was. What a disorganized event! The blue shirt security staff must have thought TSA had recruiting scouts watching them because they were sticking their hands down our pants and had that same empowerment that comes with the fabled blue shirt.

the music was fantastic...great group of bands assembled all in one place. Never throught I would see so many of my favorite bands all in one place at one show. Had a blast. A recommendation...don't pump the porta potties during the show and how about some lights up in there...using a porta pottie in the dark is not a good time.

An unforgettable line up with such bands as Godsmack, Korn, Three Days Grace, Avenged Sevenfold, and Five Finger Death Punch, Rockstar Energy out does themselves. This was every rockers dream. At first I was skeptical of going. I was worried about spending $116 for a 2 day event, but I am sure glad I went now. The bands performed greatly and everyone seemed to be enjoying themselves. If you missed this show, you better pray Rockstar does it next year.

The 48 Hour Festival was awesome and am looking forward to next year. The Festival had many positives such as clean porta potties on both days, staff cleaned up the grounds continuously, mostly good staff. Great venue and professionally done.

I was very pleased with the festival overall. I had a great time besides the fact that they did not announce that bullet for my valentine was not going to be at the festival. Being one of the main reasons I went to the festival I was very disappointed when they did not even announce that they would not be playing.

I loved the bands that were there, every single one I seen on the main stage was superb. I didn't see anyone on the small stage though. The only down fall that I didn't like was how there was nothing posted of what you could/could not bring in with you. I also felt beer prices were a little ridiculous/outrageous...I feel $5 would have been more reasonable than $10. Overall, it was a great time!!!

Really...Las Vegas, Great Weather, A7X, Godsmack, Korn, outside, need I even say more!!! I had a great time at this festival. Yeah, could they improve a few things before next year, of course but what festival doesn't live and learn. To all those who can't stop complaining...really, enjoy life and have fun even if always feel the need to complain lol. If this festival returns next year and offers a great lineup again, I'm for sure going to go back!

This event was awesome. The venue was cool. The vendors that were there were great. The sound kicked ass from the main stage and the line up was unforgettable. We were EXTREMELY disappointed that you could not have any drinks or food up in the Godfather seating area and on the second day you had to leave the seating after each set. That really sucked! There should be assigned seating in the VIP section for next year. Not enough bartenders in the VIP lounge area and there were no attendants making sure the VIP restrooms (portal potties) area was kept clean. Other than that it was great. I hope that they make it a yearly event because this is something we really enjoyed going to for the most part.

Amazing. Korn was fantastic, Godsmack best I've ever seen them. Three Days Grace owned the stage. Seether was great as was 5 Finger Death Punch and Avenged Sevenfold.. How can you not be excited to see the above...and Sick Puppies, 10 Yrs, Hollywood UnDead...and MORE all in one place at one event!!! Still smiling and rocking to the beat(s).

Five Finger Death Punch's set was high energy with a human surge that moved me front to back and side to side like a living element, insane! Avenged Sevenfold was Excellent as usual, the pyrotechnics and lighting off the hook! The fact that most all the bands were on the last show of the tour made them really appreciative of the energy we were putting out to them.

The venue was great due to the closeness to the strip, however the concrete was uncomfortable for a two day event for eight hours each day. The stage should have been at least 3 to 4 foot higher because it was impossible to see the whole show unless you were right at the front of the stage. The drinks were expensive, as with most concerts. I wouldn't mind paying $10.00 for a Jack and coke - IF - the cups were a bit bigger. Between the ice and the small cups, you were lucky if you could get five sips out of it.. Come on guys, what's a bit of extra soda gonna cost you??? With the heat in Vegas, this is something that should be taken into consideration - and then $4.00 for water is down right robbery.. You can't bring your own water in and then the venue has to get stupid and charge ridiculous prices to get hydrated.. Once again...THIS IS LAS VEGAS!!! It gets bloody hot out there for 8 or 9 hours.. However, apart from the usual complaints about over charging for food and beverage, the band line up was excellent. I would come back and suffer through the heat to see a similar line up next year..

I went the first day, it was pretty mediocre. Out of all the bands that day, only 3 were noteworthy. Locals got reamed on parking. $20 to park in a sandy lot, where at the end of the night there were multiple ad flyers on my car. Lack of re-entry was very disapointing. Being forced to pay $5 for a bottle of water, in the desert was very unreasonable. From what I've read the VIP members got jerked around a lot. I will give respect to hatebreed and five finger death punch those guys really livened up the event. Other bands tried to start a pit and it didn't happen. Avenged Sevenfold had a great set too. But, overall I wasn't impressed enough to go back Sunday. Factors included the parking costs, the water costs, the fact i was so sore from the hatebreed pit.

Cheers to Rockstar and all the promoters. It was a very successful event . One complaint was not enough seating for the aged and handicapped, none for the second stage. A lot of young people think we should stay home, but you must remember, our generation invented rock n roll and we are going to be there 'till we die! There could have been more toilet paper but then again, I did see a couple of rolls fly through the air. So bring your own. This isn't a complaint, just a mild inconvenience. The sound was great throughout. Wonderful show!

This was a great show. Lots of great bands and the opportunity to see almost all of them the way the stages were set up. There was no picking and choosing on which to see the way the start times were all staggered. It was awesome how so many local bands were at this show in addition to all the other great bands. I hope they do it again next year!

The Good: Saw and met a lot of great bands at the 48HRS. Hell or Highwater and Art of Dying, were by far the best on the second stage. Both bands were awesome when they interacted with their fans, taking pictures, signing autographs, all around, they were great. The second night was the best in terms of music Godsmack, 3 Days Grace, and Korn. No one closes a show like Korn. The Bad: Security was constantly on the prowl to break up something or do something. Came off as hostile at times.

The overall festival was amazing. There was enough space that you could get away form the big crowds. Their were ample spots for refreshments not to mention for the type of event the beer prices were very reasonable!!!! I was very pleased with the entire experience and will definitley be attendinbg the next one!!!! One thing i would recommend is trying to get some seating area for general admission people it would have made the experience a little more enjoyable but i was still very pleased!!! Great Job!!!!

I attended this event with my entire family. It was absolutely amazing! So many excellent bands in one place. The only thing I would change for next year is more area/benchs to sit down. 9-10 hours on your feet in 90+ degree heat was brutal.

Two incredible days of non-stop rock! The line-up was awesome...couldn't have asked for more. It will take a while to recover from this one! I think that the venue could have been a little more prepared for all of the people, but all in all can't complain.
