[@EGnon78]

I was there,had a great time, brought back memories.

[@kimmieskreations1969]

It's too bad Rob Zombie was having technical difficulties, he is my all time favorite.. I grew up in the same town as he did and went to the same high school, he graduated in 1983 and I started in the fall of 1983. Hope the rest of Rockville was awesome. It always seems Rockville is right around the time our rainy season starts because hurricane season is right around the corner.

[@ViewFromTheCheapSeats]

Zombie was having a fit about the technical issues, but I don't blame him. The crew had a long time to have everything set up. He still put on a great show.

[@killerdreamzgaming8047]

He might not be welcomed back ever again to rockville. He got trashed and covered his bathroom with vomit and feces

[@ChazinFl1]

He is a good song writer,, but is horrible live. He can NEVER sing well. I still haven't heard ONE show where he sounded good. It was the same thing with White Zombie. At least he had an excuse this time.

From Japan　Thank you! I enjoyed watching the American rock festival. BAND-MAID will participate in American rock festivals three times in May and once in August this year. How is it popular in America? They are planning to have 15,000 people live in Japan at their first arena concert in November this year.

[@ViewFromTheCheapSeats]

I think Band-Maid is well received here, but flying under the radar a bit. They had a good sized crowd for their set at Rockville.

I had an awesome time this year for Rockville. Amy Lee with Evanesence was phenomenal. That woman has the voice of an angel. I got the rail Saturday at Space Zebra for Alice Cooper and Pantera, then I got the rail Sunday at Octane for Pennywise, Coheed & Cambria and the Deftones. I met Dean Zelinsky, founder of Dean Guitars. Insane festival this year. Can't wait for next year.

It's never an interruption. Say hi!

[@Gxie]

Damn man! Thanks for posting this!!! Mind blown with the way u guys hit everything. Us “lower totem pole people” were hungry and didn’t get any food at all, hot af, sweating our ass off, very very dehydrated and exhausted, no upgrade amenities! Fkn brutal. BUT….. had rail for Rob Zombie, Incubus, and my all time favorite Puscifer & T00L- the entire reason for going. Not our first Rockville since we live 20 min away. We only did Thursday & Sunday (Left for the Puscifer concert in St. Pete, then came back Sunday). Totally get it with the people as I had a human backpack for like 5 hrs straight for T00L! 🤭🤣 kinda crazy cause I stood at Space Zebra rail from opening until close!

[@ViewFromTheCheapSeats]

You are a warrior standing at the barrier all day. I see peeps run up at open every day and salute them for being that hardcore to wait in the same spot all day long.

[@Gxie]

@@ViewFromTheCheapSeats hell yeah! The 2nd leg of the FI T00L tour we drove about 16hrs to St. Louis and immediately pulled up, parked and basically created the line! It was still dark out too!!! Merch monsters 😂 -the things we do for love!!

[@JTown66]

Another good one. Thanks!

[@frankprohaska3794]

Great weekend. Been to the last 5 myself. Crowd was definitely a lot larger than than the last year. I Agree that the biggest disappointment was the entitled attitude of showing up to the headliner at the last second and then shoving through the people who have been waiting in that spot for an hour is getting worse over the last few years. I waited for 90 minutes for Tool by the mixing booth and ended up going back to the Ferris Wheel right before the show because I almost got knocked over a dozen times by people shoving between me and the person next to me. Mostly seemed to be the overly drunk bro's and very young folks who are still learning festival etiquette. Just didn't feel it was worth the frustration and getting mad over. Still a great show and hope to be back next year.

[@Gxie]

Yep! Stayed at Space Zebra rail from open till T00L ended… never left. I knew I’d lose my spot if I even went to the bathroom! It was absolutely brutal, but I had to because T00L is the best band in the world! 🖤🔧🖤

Thanks for sharing!!!!! Consideration at concerts I like it💗💗💗💗

[@leviturney]

Slipknot🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 who agees 😊

[@dizneycrew4799]

Great coverage CS. My take, we went on Thursday mainly to see Zombie and Slipknot we had never seen either before. The only afternoon band we had any interest in was Black Stone Cherry, they sounded great. We did VIP thought it was totally worth the up charge. Seeing your video on the Owners Club has me interested in upgrading again next year. Overall this was our 1st Rockville experience and we wanted to try 1 day to test the waters. We had a blast, tons of Walking, my legs are still feeling it on Monday🤣🤣. Slipknot and Zombie were both great IMO felt bad for Rob and the audio/video problems he had during his set. Love the channel, keep up the good work!

[@ViewFromTheCheapSeats]

Thank you! There is definitely a lot of walking. We logged 44 miles over 5 days.

My wife and I have attended every Rockville starting with the first in 2011 which was only one day. I discovered your vlog after the 2017 festival that had Soundgarden and Def Leppard as headliners and always look forward to catching it every year once it's over. You do a great job recapping everything and I agree that it's still a great event but it's so big now that it's a little harder to enjoy. The one thing I really miss is the side by side main stages they used to have in Jacksonville. Seems like you have to walk a hundred miles each day with it inside the huge speedway. Keep up the awesome work and catch you next year.

[@ViewFromTheCheapSeats]

The setup in Jacksonville is well missed. The side by side stages were epic for being able to stand in one place and see both stages.

I watch these every year. Your closing statements is why love separate shows. Longer sets and not as many douches passing and stopping.

[@mikee3437]

Totally just watched this video to see if I was walking by at any time 🙂. This was my first Rockville. It was so hot on Day 1 and I wore a tank top and applied strong sunscreen 4 times throughout the day and still got burned so I didn't do that again. I agree with you at the end about seeing some of the bands again on a regular tour where I can sit and see. One of the Slipknot moshpits was right in front of me.

[@ViewFromTheCheapSeats]

The sun is our enemy here. I end up burnt every time we go to Rockville, despite lathering up on sunscreen.

[@kevinsmith7-7-7]

[@jasonschannel1315]

Great video and I enjoy them because like for myself I can't handle being out in the heat like that or just a big festival in general. I like my a/c lol but seriously you do such an amazing job on your editing and how you talk about how you describe like the bigger guys and some people in general makes it harder for others to see especially if there short. Me I am 5 foot 9 and I can understand completely. I been in venue's and all these tall 6 foot something guys in front of me made it harder to see. So I get it completely. I was hoping you would of caught my friends From Ashes To New. But then I remembered from all the music you share on your channel there not your type of band even though they have heavy music. And that's cool though you still put out great content. When it comes to this event. Your channel 100% is where I love to watch Rockville on.

[@ViewFromTheCheapSeats]

Thank you for the kind words. We did see From Ashes To New a couple of weeks ago when they opened for Shinedown in Orlando. They put on a good show. We've seen them at prior Rockville events as well.

[@luckylayne]

i was able to meet and see converge play to about 150 people probably due to their set being moved during rob zombie. their set was honestly my favorite of the festival!

I was there all 4 days also. I agree with you on watching the shows separately. I think it's more enjoyable if you want to appreciate the music. Now, I don't mind the moshing and crowd surfing but it's not for everyone. At these festivals, there is no safe area from a mosh or crowd surf wave unless you are way behind the main crowd. But, I think the moshing and crowd surfing comes with the territory. I think the heat and fatigue just beats you down by the time headliners come on. BTW, What camera do you use? Zoom quality on it is awesome. Thanks for the video.

How long is each band on stage for? This is my first year going🙏

[@ViewFromTheCheapSeats]

It depends on the band and the time of day that they play. Earlier bands may play for 30 minutes and headliners may play for 90 minutes. They will release a schedule of times for each band about 2 weeks before the show on their website.

They also ran over their set time at blue ridge last year and messed up the set times for the rest of the day for that stage after that stage at the beginning of the day started late from difficulties. Made sure they got to play their full set; Clown's son is also in the band so yea they definitely have a lot of help.

[@justmeisthatok7990]

Gotta wonder if theres some gear sabotage to screw up a show so next band( that guys favorite) looks so much BETTER..its happened b4 ,from ax's 🎸 gone missing, to cables unplugged..ego is a terrible thing . Did slipknot wait for gear to work b4 taking the stage? Just saying..

[@ViewFromTheCheapSeats]

I'm not sure. I think a bunch of these bands are friendly with each other, but you never know.

[@justmeisthatok7990]

Years ago at battle of the bands type of events where bands performed JUST IN FRONT OF BOOKING AGENTS..the years b4 computers and often ego's were truly well..I've no words..but yea guys would " prank" guys ( a former band they were playing with or worked for and got fired for reasons unknown to me) by pulling a wire..cutting a guitar string,stupid things just to screw up there performance or CAUSE THEM TO LOSE TIME PLAYING..30 bands would show up with all gear,light show,PA,etc.. and u got like a 20 min window to set up while band b4 you does their show! And half the time these "AGENTS" WERE JUST BULLSHITING. SOME would suddenly come up with a FEE to do your demo😂..this is after your beside the stage ready to rush to put all your gear on the "stage"..gaff tape lines on the floor of an otherwise empty building.. and you barely had gas to get your ass home! Try and hit you for 20 bucks per band member. .etc.. but if u came up with whatever..they would let u play. I had made a light show with pyro and truly scared that guy with a boom outside.( testing my gear)😂..we wouldn't give them a dime as no notice of a fee was ever mentioned on the flyers I had seen at a music store. I pulled one out of my pocket and showed him that no fee was mentioned..then the other bands started gathering around as I told him off.. they too had flyers and although worded differently no fee was mentioned.. so they got cash out of first 5 bands..we were 6th.. and no one I talked to after that day ever got any gigs. It was all BULLSHIT. Flyer said multiple agents and club owners would be there to book acts. All these bands wasted their day ,and cash,for this BOOKING EVENT. IT quickly turned into a party after each act performed had a cooler of beer. The old days of rock and roll. Some of these booking events were in fact legit. But this one was such bullshit😂 ..I can laugh now 40 years later.
