Thousands of fans watched the musicians perform at Tennent's Vital.
It is the first time the two-day festival has been held at Boucher playing fields in the south of the city.
The Stone Roses will headline the event on Wednesday.
They will be joined by English band Florence and the Machine, Rodrigo Y Gabriela, Gerard i2 and Maverick Sabre.
SDLP councillor Claire Hanna said she had received calls from constituents last night.
"It was exceptionally loud. I welcome that we have concerts of this level... but we do have to balance it with the right of people to enjoy a quiet night at home," she said.
"I understand that the noise carried partly because it was a very still and cloudless night.
"Most residents understand that people want to enjoy a night out but a second night at the same level might provoke a few more calls."
Eileen Fee who lives about a mile away from the concert venue in Osborne Park, Belfast, said it was so loud the "windows shook".
"I just thought I was at the concert, that's how loud it was. It was really impossible to do anything else at home," she said.
"It was just a really dreadful situation. I'm not against the concert but there is an acceptable level of noise."
Businesswoman Grainne McGarvey said she, too, could hear the music from her home about four miles away.
"I pretty much heard every ooh and ah and beat of the drum," she said.
"I was actually offered a ticket for the concert but I turned it down as I'm not a big fan of the Foo Fighters but I still managed to hear the entire thing.
"I can't wait for Florence and the Machine as I'm a big fan and I think it's fantastic that the bands are here. Tonight I will be sitting with my windows open and a wee glass of wine and not have to worry about getting soaked."
People on BBC Newsline's Facebook page claimed they heard the concert in locations such as Gilnahirk and 12 miles away in Ballygowan in County Down.
