I attended both days of Rolling Loud and I can honestly say it was a very magical moment. This was New York's first ever Rolling Loud so I guess you can say I was part of history. Day 1 was the day that I didn't like the most. I really did not enjoy myself watching performers since so many were cancelled or moved around to other stages. However day 2 was worth all the bruises and soreness from the next day. It truly felt like a big party with the speakers blasting, good vibes from everyone and performances were magical. 60,000 people attended this festival, did you? reach out to me and let me know how your experience went. Which artist did you wish was on the lineup? I know I wanted Roddy Rich to go! Guess we'll wait till next year!
