I presented a training class to about 200 Chinese nationals. It was a lot like training the stone heads on Easter Island.

Probably about 8000 people at some hip hop festival in the czech republic with Foreign Beggars. After that, about 2000 doing a solo gig in Sofia.

Gigs in this country are just not as fun :) Over here, its probably been about 500 or so at one of the Brighton Hip Hop Festivals.

Around 4500 playing with the Brighton Youth Orchestra, had to play a solo with orchestral backing.
New the music off by heart and kept eyes fixed to a point about 3 feet above the back row.:eek:

The Levellers used to busk at the end of my road, and they often came to our (kingtafarilove) reggae dances in the city.
They asked us to support them at an open air festival in Stanmer park...
As we were only really listening to reggae, we had no idea they had become really famous, and was fairly astonished to see the size of the crowd in front of the stage later in the day...no idea how many people but it was a shedload.

Around 450, working as a First Choice 'Holiday Advisor' (aka Rep) in one of our Holiday Villages in Sharm el-Sheikh. Around 25 minutes talking about the hotel, area and trips etc.

About 1,500 in a packed tent, first band on at a festival. Atmosphere was ruddy brilliant as - being first band on - the crowd were very hungry for some live music.
