Well, it's not going to be publicly advertised as that. It's for getting sponsors (and maybe even official status), I want to be able to (approximately) tell the truth as to it's size, but I still want it to sound impressive to possible venues, sponsors and curators. Bending the truth and playing things up is important in this world, when it comes to working within the system.
As for the size, it's an estimate, but you could see a clearly defined border of people who were at our show and who were just walking along the street. We had a large square to ourselves, so it was bordered on three sides. If I was just counting traffic walking on the street I'd have to make that estimate much, much larger.
Don't get me wrong: really, I'm about playing music. I'm glad to see a large audience because it means (hopefully) a large audience is enjoying my music and the music I like, and even if they hate it at least they're being exposed to it. I just love hearing chip music, which is why I don't play shows alone, and I love making chip music.
Edit: I was also just curious as to how big these other events are.
