I loved every single minute!! But I have two suggestions only. (i know... can you believe it? ;D) 1. Put bathrooms on BOTH sides of VIP, I noticed that the beer booth on the bathroom side had tons more business, and the bathroom lines were long, frustrating for the VIP people I talked to. And the booth for beer on the other side saw a small percentage of what they did. 2. Put the awesome Sunday security in place on Saturday too. Thank you Mike for letting me text you about the madness on Sat. with the idiots up front. My friend went back to the trailer and missed the final act she was so stressed about it. Another friend got pushed. Some people are just RUDE. The security on Sunday was awesome to me and all my friends, and asked if I knew everyone up there when I came in, told him almost all of them and he said to let him know if I needed anything, that he would make sure we were safe and taken care of, and they did an awesome job!! THANKS AND PROPS TO THEM! I was talking to some people at Saddle Sore and they also wanted me to convey this and said it was awesome on Sunday with the extra security. Otherwise, it was perfect, reviews from anyone I talked to had nothing negative to say, they really enjoyed it. ;D

We had a meeting Saturday night because of that security issue and got it resolved... thanks for the input from everyone, it was defenitely a problem. It's a learning process and Security should be just like it was Sunday from now on! =))))

I totally agree with Kymery. Security was awesome on Sunday! I did have to call them over a couple times, but it was WAY better! And bathrooms on both sides is a great idea too!
One minor suggestion, because I noticed it on Sunday. I still had my bracelet on from Saturday and they were the same color on Sunday for VIP. If I hadn't offered my ticket for them to mark, I could have walked in and given somebody else my ticket for a wristband. Just a though though! Eventually they did start checking tickets as well on Sunday night as you went in.
I think it was amazing MIke, I really do. Seats were amazing, I can't imagine enjoying a concert anymore than I did last weekend!

I remember talking with one of the *security* guys at the front of the stage throughout Saturday night and he informed me that he was a *staff* member and not security unless we (the audience) rushed the stage! I was also told by another staff member that he was a *volunteer* for the festival! I was SHOCKED to hear that! I felt bad for those guys... they were only doing their jobs and the real security did not exist until the audience started to complain about the issue! But I am HAPPY that the problem was resolved quickly and that was AWESOME in my book! THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!! I even joked with the staff members that "I bet you never knew that Country Music Fans were this ROWDY" and they agreed! LOL Everything else during the festival was wonderful! I enjoyed the campgrounds, games, vendors & food! I think that y'all ran a top notch event! I noticed that the simple lil freedoms (such as bonfires, outdoor BBQ's & no alcohol restrictions) made for better decisions by the fans that attended the festival!! LOVED IT

I totally agree. Mike you put on a fabulous event. Great friends, great music and a ton of fun, that is what I have gotten these past 2 years. Looking forward to many many more years of this.
I agree with Karena on wristbands. Saturday I showed my tix when I got to the VIP seating area, they put a slash mark on the tix and put on my wristband. This eliminates passing of tix to get additional wristbands. Same should be done on Sun. Also it may help security if there is a different color wristband for the 2 diff price points.

Did I miss something here? What was the problem that needed security? Was it because of all the people squeezing their way up front?
