Mystic Lake Event

May have rained but Bret and Jack were still the best!!!

Pretty fun event and was very professional. Will be going again if they host another event

We had such a great time! Dee Snider was absolutely AWESOME! He's still got it! Such a cool guy with a great voice. He seemed to really be having fun and had great stage presence. He got all of us fired up to rock. Would highly recommend him to others and would LOVE To see him again. Great choice Mystic! We also got a cool winter hat and gambling money. A very fun night.

Poor communication about when the bands actually started. Friday start time was too early for people having to drive across the city during rush hour. Location on/within the property wasn't clear. Might have been able to set up something to help with the rain on Saturday. Performances seemed shorter on Saturday - maybe because of the rain.

A quality concert both days and a lot of happy fans.

Dee Snider, Jack Russell and Bret Michaels were amazing!! Even the cold and rain didn't stop them!! I will never listen to "Once Bitten" again without changing the lyrics to "I sure as shit ain't dry baby"! like Jack Russell did. The only thing I would suggest is that Mystic Lake put some heaters outside to keep the crowd from going toward warmth right away. Other than that, I wouldn't change a thing and can't wait to come back again next year for our third year in a row!!

The music quality was terrible and it was way too loud!! Should not have had Dokken as the warm-up and Dee Snider as the headliner, who was playing all his new music. Dokken was a much better headliner. The drinks and food were okay and inexpensive. There were some weird juvenille inflatable games set up that no one was playing. Games might have been played by teens to 20-year-olds, but target audience was 45 to 50-year-olds for 80's music. It seemed they were prepared for another 5000 people that didn't show up. Would have been a much better event in the summer. They did not have a plan for rain and so we didn't go the second night. We had had enough bad quality music on the first night anyway.

Bret is awesome! I've seen him many times and he never disappoints!

THE SHOWS WERE EXCELLENT BUT COULD WE HAVE ROCK, BRATS AND BEER INSIDE NEXT TIME? FREEZING RAIN IN OCTOBERS NO FUN. THE ONLY OTHER THING THAT WAS RATHER ANNOYING WAS BRET COMING OUT 45 MIN LATER AFTER GREAT WHITE..WE WERE ALREADY ICE CUBES, WHY DELAY THE SHOW? NEXT YEAR DO ROCK BRATS AND BEER INDOORS PLEASE, WE WILL ALL BE HAPPIER. ---[

I was very excited for the show, but it ended up raining. Made it through Great White, but forced to go inside by the rain, for Brett Michaels. Great venue, I love Mystic Lake. But uncontrollable factors took over and I only got to see one band, and was physically sick on Monday because of it. Got a free Mystic Lake Beanie, for installing their app, though.

The beer and brats were awesome. The weather sucked. Minnesota in October... should have moved it inside, so we missed bret Michaels. The slideshow was fun.

Pros: price of tickets and stage set high for a good view. Cons: Outside in October (cold and rainy), very late start times (no band started on time, some at least an hour late!), price of beer, no chairs can be brought in (hard on feet to stand that long on pavement and considering the late start times), 2-day event (could have been condensed to 1 day).

U had to scan tickets to get in and out. Never checked id for drinking. Said no umbrella then they did at the last minute. It rained on sat no where to stay dry

40 degrees and rained and down poured the whole time. Brett Michaels was a trooper but Mystic who held the venue SUCKED. The least they could of done was put up a tent and offered something warm to drink. If you can make $8 off a drink why not offer coffee so Baileys could of been put in it and you would of made a killing. When it is windy, COLD, and Raining and you knew it all day. You could of did something to help out the paid customers and the band Members. THey had even took down all their equipment because they thought it would be canceled and then had to put it all back up because Mystic refused to cancel unless there was lightening. WHAT A JOKE

Didn t go due to the rain, wasn t worth me or my husband getting sick.

Dokken sounded great, talked about personal experiences would go see again. Dee Snider wanted to see him with the original band growing up, but still awesome listening to him, nice to see 2 great bands play hope they come back next year

Grew up listening to Dokken and Twisted Sister.....Dokken one of my all time favorite bands I will see again and again as long as they keep playing, sounded good. Dee Snider sounded great! These guys are older now, do they sound like they did in the eighties?.....no, but are they still out there doing shows for us aging fans?....yes!!!! These shows keep us young, we should appreciate what they do for us by coming out and still performing! The high point of the night, ran into Don in the casino and got to take a picture with him, thanks Don! Can't wait till they come back!

I took my wife who is not a fan of the kind of music but i can tell you she had a really good time!! Dokken was great and Dee Snider is ageless!

30 minutes of the 3 hours was actually about fantasy football. The prizes and food voucher made up for the ticket cost.
