95 WIIL Rock Fest

My boyfriend and I had a blast! My boyfriend and I had plenty of alcohol and lots of food! We can not wait until next year!

The entire day was awesome! No problems with crowds, except long lines for beverage tickets! It was a very peaceful, uneventful day....why can't everyone ALWAYS behave themselves??? Brought in our own chairs which went untouched while we left to listen to other bands. The set-up of the stages and the continued music throughout the day made this an unforgettable event...well worth the price of admission.

The bands were awesome, especially Volbeat and All That Remains. Meet and greets were handled well and got to meet a few of the bands. Only complaint as far as that goes was that one of the signing areas was by invitation only...you had to be handed a card by random people and you couldn't figure out who. I was also disappointed that the website said no "professional" cameras, yet they were everywhere. I would have brought a nicer camera if I knew nothing would be checked. Even though I didn't see any fights, there were a LOT of over served (ridiculously...can't stand up...drunk) people out there and there were no pat downs or searches whatsoever. That was kind of surprising. The gold circle tickets were absolutely worth it and would by them again. They weren't kidding when they said close to the stage. Food and drinks were a great value as well

We had a awesome time. Looking forward to many more concerts for many new bands that we fell in love with.

It was a six hour drive to get there but the event was worth every minute of drive time and every mile. Main stage acts were second to none including Hollywood Undead, Pop Evil, Saint Asonia, Nonpoint and the list goes on. Set times were set up so you could watch all of the national acts but also allowed you to take in the local talent as well. The only thing I can complain about is I have to wait another year to take the six hour trip!!

The show was awesome!! Wish there were a few more food choices but not a big deal. Lots of fun!

The concert area and stage was fairly small so you were able to get up close to the musicians. It was wonderful since it felt a bit like an exclusive show. To be capable of getting up close and being a part of it all was an experience I will never forget. Everyone got into the groove and had a great time!

Positives: Bands were decent to good. Plenty of room. Negatives: Poor signage made it hard to find the parking entrance. No extra activities, only drinking. (Can't drink, so got bored.) Over zealous security. (Showed them I had prescription drugs and the guy started dumping them in the garbage.) Summary: Good event for locals. I won't be back.

Loved the venue. No restriction in how close you could get to the stage. Schedule was well thought out. Location was easy to find off of I94.

I had VIP seats I thought the whole thing really sucked especially the way everything was run I will never go to another 95 wiil rock event again

I was only there for Nonpoint, Saint Asonia, and the beginning of Pop Evil. The sound quality of the speakers wasn't that great, I've seen Nonpoint live before but their quality was killed with the speakers, too much bass. They shouldn't have allowed lawn chairs in their, or at least within 200 feet of the stages, it was wasted space for people that were there to see their favorite bands up close. People could easily trip over the chairs, and I saw one crowd surfer fall because of the space left by chairs and no one to support them. Once I got to the front there was a row of five chairs and NO ONE sitting in them, just wasted space. I also thought the stages were too close, obviously bands weren't playing at the same time, but while one band was playing the other stage was doing a very loud sound check. I thought that wasn't respectful to the band playing or the crowd trying to listen to them. Otherwise the bands were great, they gave it their all even with a crowd full of people that were obviously not into it for a few bands.

We spent 9 hours at Rock fest. The bands all put on a great show! THC was hilarious! Butcher Babies rocked the stage! Aranda was great! Pop Evil was awesome. A few things I was not a fan of: VIP area was off to the side, a couple of tables for all the people. Tickets, hate standing in line for tickets to then stand in another line for food or drinks. If they allow chairs then they make it clear you have to stay with them. We stood four hours in the same spot and the two chairs in front of us never were used, like someone left there and walked away.

WIIL rock fest was awesome i thought the put on one hell of a festival, it seem to plan out very well not a lot of standing around wait for the next band to start up it kept the day moving along nicely

Some of the bands I will never watch again. There was alot of issue with sound quality across alot of the stages. Few choices in vendors and no ability to go back to your car should it be needed, even for medical issues. The selection of bands was amazing! Overall an amazing cincert.

I was excited to go to this event this year as it was only 5 minutes from my house so I would be able to stay for awhile and go back home let my dogs out and then come back. It was unfortunate to find out once you were in you could not leave and come back. For as expensive as the tickets were I would like to get my moneys worth and have the freedom to leave and come back as it's an all day long event. The food options were not very good for an all day event either. only 2 main food stands, one with a tiny frozen hamburger and bun not even cheese for $5. The bands that we seen in the time we were there were good. Just the organization of the event that was lackluster. Also not clear direction on where to park as the entrance road was under construction many people didn't know they could go down the road to the entrance so were driving around in circles looking where to park.

You did an excellent job. The event was well put together. We enjoyed how open and uncrowded it was, you had plenty of room to move around and be relaxed. People were helpful and friendly. Plenty of porta-johns with hand washing stations. The line for drinks were never very long. Music was great. We are bringing 4 friends next year.

American Love Drug, Red Line Chemistry, All That Remains, Soil, Volbeat.... and tons more... Awesome. It was a great day. We will most defiantly go again next year. Gates opened at 9a.m. and it was all day till after midnight with the after party. Good food, drinks, awesome music, autographs, interviews from the bands, 3 stages of rock music all day long how can you go wrong?? You Can't!! 95 WIIL ROCK Fest rocks out every year and I Love them!! There radio station is the best around as well. You have to check them out, 95.1 Wiil Rock, Milwaukee/Chicago area.

The festival itself wasn't the greatest. The headline band was worth it. I think the station should of picked a better lineup with Volbeat. The concert was close by so I didn't have to drive a long distance so that was a good.

Band lineup was amazing. Venue very disorganized. Overall, definately worth the money. Hopefully venue more organized next year.

As I said below the whole show ROCKED especially volbeat

The worst music fest I've ever experienced. We purchased the Platinum VIP tickets.....what a waste of money!! All the disorganization, running out of beverages, the buffet was horrid. We stood in line for the buffet for 1 1/2 hours. cold brats, dry ribs, some bacon and green mixture, which was the only thing that was good...everything else was gone. The lack of security....No one was checking armbands for the "gold" section. Anyone and everyone were going up the "gold" section. Overly drunk people everywhere.... I don't know what we we paid for??? COMPLETE WASTE OF MONEY!!!! I will never go again...even if someone offered me fee tickets.

Being I'm in my forties, I've seen many shows. But experiencing my 16 year-old's first concert experience was truly unforgettable. His views on live music before Saturday weren't very favorable since he's only experienced live music through the speakers of his computer. When he got there, Nonpoint was finishing up their set. My son's eyes lit up like it was Christmas. Priceless! We were there for All that Remains and Volbeat and were NOT disappointed. Awesome shows!! We'll see you next year!

Worst event I've been to. Had to wait in line for over an hour to get food which was supposed to be included with my Platinum tickets. Lots of fights broke out in the golden circle.

All Ranch Hands gave us different answer everytime we asked the same questions. Need more signs. Need more details on website. Did not know we could not leave, get a hand stamp, and come back in. Did not know the times for food service. What would be served. They should have people serve the food, them the attendees would not be controling the amounts served and causing back ups and delays. The building needed air conditioning, those poor bartenderesses, all of that time in the heat. Bathroom was out of towels. Did not know where we needed to go for wristbands for platinum tickets. Thought bathrooms and food were near stage. Thought all drinks but liquor were included. Should have posted about food and beverage tickets and prices on website. thought there would be chairs included.Needed more garbage cans. Need more shaded areas. Paid for vip parking and was told did not exist. need more lights in parking lot. will not go again.disappointed.

The fest sucked! Airbourne rocked but the fest was very poorly run. No band schedules; intermission of bands had no music playing at lengthy times, parking attendants didn't have a clue what they were doing.................

As usual VOLBEAT impresses. They sound so good live it's amazing. They sound just like their albums. It only goes to show how real this group is. What they record in the studio is exactly what you'll hear on stage except for a lot more energy. Go see VOLBEAT, you wont regret it.

The music was fine .......the VIP food area was awful , long lines and always running out .....never buy this package again

All bands were good. some more than others. Will be going every year

I wasn't there for the hole show and the band Him was awful. The rest of the show was great and Volbeat was awesome!

Truly disappointed in this event, seems every year they get bands with less and less energy. Volbeat was a huge let down for a finale, next time let Soil or someone that has enough good material get the last slot. it was like they were playing to fill the time. Might be our last year. 2 years ago this event rocked the house, going downhill
