Hey guys I gotta question about going to a concert with friends ...
This May, me and my girlfriends have our hearts set on going to the third annual Carolina Rebellion in Charlotte, North Carolina. The problem might be is that we're early teenagers, and that be music might not be appropriate for some, and that you have to camp out or go into a hotel since the rock concert is two days long. Tickets are already on sale, and we do have the money, and the concert's on a week end, so we won't have to skip any school. So do you think that early teenage girls would be allowed to go to a rock concert, where you might have to camp out for the night and with loud blaring rock music and where beer and everything will be sold (but of course not to kids)alone? Ya know, would you like your parents going to a concert with you? I know it's way early to be asking this since it's just Feb, but we need to know! It might help if you visit the website.

Maybe give some free advice about: Music?
Unless it says on the ticket web site, the venue's web site or the bands when you actually are purchasing tickets that the concert is restricted to 19+ in Canada for liquor or 21+ in U.S. they will let you in with a ticket to see the concert each day.
They really can't say the music is inappropriate as that's up to parents to determine what your ears should be listening to and not a concert promoter or ticket agent.
I believe you are 13-years-old based on the info that came to us when you submitted your question. That's a HUGE problem only when it comes to hotels and camping. You need an adult with you for that DEFINITELY. There's no way the people running this will let you camp alone on site.
And you MUST be 18+ to rent a hotel room anywhere in the U.S. and need a credit card. Why? Well to ensure nobody takes advantage of kids and also so the room holder if they trash the room is on the hook for incidents financially.
What you should do is talk to your friends, their parents, and yours and tell them you all have the cash but need adult supervision and someone to camp with that they all trust who is at least 18 and responsible. Maybe there is a babysitter or family friend, cousin, relative whomever that would be more than happy to take you having the same musical tastes.
Look into that and call the company selling tickets and find out whether the concert part is restricted to a certain age. If it's not and you have a chaperone than you're good.
Obviously, when you camp on site you'll need a really good tent, rain-gear, sunscreen, T-shirts, jeans, blankets, cooler, sweaters, thermal underwear (It gets cold), hair, makeup, personal hygiene products. And ABOVE all lots of water.
One thing that may SUCK outright and you have to know before going is if they do allow coolers and how big. Some promoters are really strict on NO coolers and others aren't or are strict about the size as well as what you can and cannot bring in. Why?
They want you to buy every last crumb and drink off of them. Find out the cooler, water bottle and outside food policy.
As far as money goes don't have a large amount on you so it can't be stolen but do have enough for breakfast, lunch, dinner, water, programs and probably $40 for whatever tour T-shirt or souvenier you want on top if that's your thing.
Let me know (Inbox) how it goes. With outdoor events like this you really need rain-gear and it can be inexpensive ponchos from a dollar-store as this thing goes rain or shine and believe me being soaked through your skin is no fun.
And above all water is needed. You have to constantly be hydrated and slugging it back even when you don't feel hot or thirsty. If you stop sweating that's a sign something's wrong but you're smart and will stay on top of this.
Also be sure to bring shower/bath gear, towels as they will have showers set up for campers.
