"filled with music"

based on previous year's 'EF street music' read loud amplified rock music. Much louder than acoustic buskers who are 'not really approved', even discouraged at other times of the year, because they are 'too loud and annoying'. Of course, this is 'just homeless bums' versus a large corporation. There are claims of 30% growth each year over the last 10 years. Figures of 20-30000 paid attendees are claimed - multiply that by the campers percentage - claimed to be high multiplied by the 'season ticket price' - for other similar events easily up to $300 each ... who cares about a few 'homeless bums'? :-)
