I was there. Had a decent spot beside the big light and sound tower about 100m out from the stage. We were 20 feet away from water and over a kilometre away from the washrooms. From where we were it was a solid 30 minute walk to food, beer, washrooms. No real walking paths for people near the front to get to the outskirts of the park where everything was located. Lineups for beer tickets were 1 hour, concession lineups were 2-3 hours long, about 200 people deep.
To put it simply, if you didn't move from your spot all day you probably had an awesome time. I missed The Guess Who's entire set because I had to go to the washroom.
Rush was great, at this point free water bottles were being thrown into the crowd which started a mini battle royale in my section.
AC/DC was unbelievable.
The Stones were great, but I'm not really a fan.
All in all a great concert, no real surprises. Timberlake and Angus Young each came out for a Stones song and that was it for surprises.
Sorry you guys couldn't watch it on t.v.
