Hope this helps.

Troy benefited between $10-20 million in new revenue from Mumford and Sons.

I went both nights and had a great time. My girlfriend's parents live about 20 minutes away so we just drove both days. The shuttle on the way home the first night was horrendous, as was the parking, so we parked at the American legion for ten bucks the 2nd night and had zero problem getting out of there. Mumford brought the place down, but I loved the other bands as well. Would love to see this become a regular thing.

People can contribute to society in other ways aside from just spending money.

Does the art, music and benefit to the overall culture of Troy count?

It is a regular thing. Just not always called the gentleman of the road tour. Used to be called railroad revival tour.

Where did you park the 1st night? What time did you get there?

I wonder if he means in Troy with the downtown closed specifically.

I was quite impressed with how well it went. Downtown was really fun going bar hopping and listening to the music.
All the downtown bars were selling really good quality choices of beer....thumbs up 4 the beer snobs.

No. The worthless Strawberry Festival negates any benefit
