Probably 9 or 10 thousand people.
It was the Minstrel In The Gallery tour.
We had backstage passes, and met John Evan & Martin Barre, but didn't get to meet Ian. He was using the facilities while we were there.
Fun fact: Martin plays flute, too.
So, both he & Ian play guitar & flute!
I have Martin in my Top Five most underrated rock guitarists. His excellence fits in perfectly with an excellent & adventurous band.
