The Carolina Rebellion artist lineup for 2012 was amazing. The only change that I would have made to the lineup would be to not have Shinedown. The majority of the crowd left before the final show of the night. The rest of the lineup was aggressive rock, but the show closed with a pop band.

The largest improvements over the 2011 Carolina Rebellion show in Charlotte were the availability of water to refill water bottles and the addition of MANY extra food venders!!

The major negative to the Rockingham venue was that the venue is extremely dusty!! Dust was kicked up in my face the whole day! Plus the ground was really rocky, so by the end of the day my feet hurt a lot.

Overall this is an excellent concert series, and I hope to attend again in years to come!

Great seeing Weaving the Fate and Paper Tongues on the main stages.
Add SUPER bob for next year, they are a great, high energy band!
Vending prices were way too high!

Great bands but I missed a few from last year that I wish could have been there. Wish there had been more info on meet and greets also...and updates on the changes in the meet and greet times. Food and merch vendors were so much better this year!

After driving for three hours to get to the concert, I was not impressed. It was hot, dirty and dusty. The prices were outrageous-just like last year. Last year's concert line up was better.

This was my 2nd Carolina Rebellion and they were both great as far as the bands go..Alot of people were complaining about the band line up before it ever got here.Personally I like seeing a new band or a band I haven't seen b4..This was my 3rd time seeing Stained and they have been great everytime..This was my 1st time seeing Evanesence and my sister and I was Hyypped!! FFDP was awsome too!...Again Carolina Rebellion 1&2 was a great show,, but My complaints are No freakin seats,this year was in a SANDY/ DIRT field.. I bought nachos which were 10$ and they were covered in dirt within 5 minutes of having them and Im a country girl God made dirt,Dirt dont hurt,but that was beyond all hope..So if I had any say in the next Carolina Rebellion I would vote for somewhere that had some seats and less dirt...My husband said he would never attend Carolina Rebellion again Im so gonna miss him at the next one!!

There was no charge for parking, so that's good. I live in Charlotte, so it was a drive for me this year. I noticed the food and drink stands weren't taking credit cards this year, though. Good thing we brought cash! Pretty good food and drinks, though! Again, Halestorm didn't get to play long enough. Good job on providing water this year.

Went to concert at Rockingham Speedway. Very long & hot day! Enjoyed some, but not all of the bands---thought Shinedown and Slash, were the best shows. Would like to recommend, allowing ppl to bring/use lawn chairs or sport chairs-wouldn't be any more space than ppl siiting on ground and would have improved our experience. Over all we had a fun time.

We went to last year's Carolina Rebellion in Charlotte and had a great time. When this year's event was announced for the Rockingham Speedway, I was disappointed it wasn't going to be in town, but willing to sacrifice and make the drive to enjoy a good rock show. This involved cost for travel and hotel that wasn't required last year and was an added expense this year. When we got there, I was anticipating that the event would be in the infield of the speedway facility. Not so, it was in a field ajacent to the speedway and was a lengthy walk just to get to the gates. My thought was that there might be seating for those who chose to sit, but since it wasn't in the speedway, there was none, except in VIP areas. Upon entering, it was immediately obvious this might not be a good time. First of all, the field was sandy and there was dust blowing in the air everywhere. The temperature was high and the air was very dry with dust blowing in your face constantly. Not pleasant. The set up was similar to last year which was also disappointing with how far away the port-a-johns were from the easy access. Once you got to the facilities, they were totally trashed out and the sanitation stations quickly ran out of water without attendance. This is unacceptable. Lastly, the prices of everything were way too high. The ticket price was stiff to begin with, but you felt like you were getting robbed every time you bought water or anything in the concessions. The music itself was good, but due to the discomfort of the venue, it wasn't even enjoyable. unfortunately.

Parking was a NIGHTMARE!!! But eventually we did make it to the show after walking a country mile. Leaving was WORSE!! IT was the purest definition of Chaos I can imagine. We sat for over an hour before we just cut through a field and through some trees to get out onto a side road.

The Venue was outside of the Speedway, and this provided for the most optimal dust ever.
The area was STOMPED to death during shows and some of the dust clouds were so massive that it obstructed the view of the performers.
Everyone I know that was there was completely covered (head to toe) in dirt by the end of the shows. I was cleaning dirt for 3 days...

There were many different opportunities to get to meet and or see the bands up close and personal, and they were organized fairly well.

The performances were all GREAT and the music was definitely everything you could want to experience and more.

Maybe next year it can be for more than just one day....and Maybe they can get Rob Zombie to show up. (That would be the BEST)

The show was great, I saw a bunch of bands I had never seen before, even though the only reason I was there was for Evanescence, but I did also want to see Halestorm. I met Lzzy in Nashville at another Evanescence show=she was just there to watch the show like a fan, but I've never seen them live. It was a long hot, at times miserable day. The worst part were some rude, obnoxious, fans who have no respect for others.
