It was a great day, with the perfect weather and a beautiful location. The shuttle service was great, although paying for it was slightly frustrating since we've all already shelled out so much money for the tickets. It was an awesome lineup. My one complaint is that because of the beautiful yet slightly awkward setup, getting close to the main stage was an impossible task. There was poor stage line up planning, all of the good bands for the day were on the same stage, so the crowd never died, hence the never getting close. I enjoyed sitting on the beach soaking up the rays with my boyfriend, so it was a good day all in all.

My girlfriend loves Bon Jovi and I mainly got the last day pass to see him only. This was our first time at Bamboozle and although it was an awesome day we felt that we would not go back. It was indeed awesome but was just not our type of event.

Thank you Bamboozle for not only bringing the Festival back to Asbury Park, but for bringing a great mix of talent each day. Special "THANKS" to the City of Asbury Park, and its leaders, the police and fire departments, the emergency squads from all over New Jersey, and especially the great citizens of this city, for making all of us festival participants feel welcome in your great city. I, especially, hope that an event such as this, can continue to re-invigorate this "JEWEL" of the Jersey Shore.
See 'ya all again Asbury Park !
Check out Asbury Park year round !! You'ld be amazed !!
Thanks again from Point Pleasant Boro !!

The Foo FIghters and Incubus made it worthwhile. Bon Jovi was good, but I have never been a major fan. This was a great package of music over three days at a place that is coming back to life - Asbury!
Negative side - the Food. Horrible selection - Difficult to get a beer or a bite.
Excellent shows and atmosphere. Will definitely be back to Asbury.

It was quite a different experience than most concerts i have been to. Its literally pure chaos all over! I hated that some of my favorite bands were playing at different stages at the same time!! But the Foo Fighters and My Chemical Romance were spectacular. I didn't have the best expectations for MCR and was disappointed that Blink 182 weren't playing, but all in all MCR killed it! At bamboozle there were a variety of acts from Pauly D to Motion City to The Ballyhoo!

This concert was great because not only do you get to sit in the sand, hear the ocean during intermissions and go explore the street vendors on the board walk, this event brings together some great bands. We are already planning to go next year of its anywhere close to Philadelphia. A few reminders though that we forgot: bring a blanket to sit on the beach with, bring a sweatshirt for the cool night and bring a water bottle in the event (turns Out you can we just didn't think to). Hope we can make the next one even better.

Bon jovi should not have been in that venue, with those other groups, I am a huge fan, I drove 3 hrs to see them, I was very disappointed, we left during the first half of the show.
Bon jovi was playing for the younger people, the base was way to high, my heart and inside my ears were trembling, it was awful. Before Bon jovi came out I was in the crowd and hyperventilated , the music groups were to rough, they should not of been playing with them.

My friends and I decided to go to the skrillex after party after bamboozle because it was down the street from my house and cheap. The opening Djs were really good and skrillex killed it with a full set. We all agreeded it was surpringlsy one of the best shows we have ever been to.

I spent a good amount of money on tickets to Bamboozle this year specifically to see Blink-182. When I found out that they weren't going to be able to make it...a week before the festival...I was naturally furious. The tickets are "non-refundable" but they were CERTAINLY not worth the price since the featured band DIDN'T SHOW UP. Offer insurance for the featured band. It was a serious let down when I couldn't see my favorite band perform. I still went, but I would not have bought the tickets had I known Blink wasn't going to be able to come.

The weather was atrocious, but the bands were great. We were only there for Sunday and only saw The Gaslight Anthem, Band New and Bon Jovi. I am not a fan of Band New, but Gaslight and Bon Jovi rocked it. An awesome show if not just for those to.

The lineup was great and the set times were perfect. I think that they could have used the beach to their advantage a little more, but they still did a great job. I've only went for the past 2 years, but don't really have much of a preference between Asbury or Meadowlands. Overall, great job and can't wait to go back next year, wherever it is.

Seeing Skrillex live for the 2nd time was a real treat when he closed at the main stage on the first day of Bamboozle Festival. As the last act of the show, he played a 2 hour set from 9pm to 11pm. Afterwords he had an afterparty from 11:30 till 2am where he had 2 awesome djs open for him and then Skrillex again performing for about an hour and a half. GREAT GREAT FRIDAY NIGHT. Looking forward in seeing Skrill again this year at Electric Zoo.
