Depends on the size of the room, how much they spend, how long they stay, whether they leave and return later, etc., etc...

Too many variables.

Almost like asking, "Do you walk to work or carry your lunch"?

Slow can be 0.
Busy can be 30.

Depends on a number of variables.

Ok I guess this question is not very specific.
But On the weekends here singers are lucky if they sing twice, thats how busy it gets here and why we do it 7 days a week.
once we start getting busy it just blows up.
so I'm Not talking aqbout the first 4 people that show up early, I'm talking about the max number at its peak you have in a night?
If We have under 20 it's a really slow night REALLY!!! Slow!!!

We have a smoking ban in all clubs in Queensland, Australia and this invariablymeans half the patrons are outside puffing up at any given time. A busy night for me is a 20 singer rotation, a quiet night is six or seven. It's a catch 22 situation really. If you have a small number of singers, it can get rather monotonous and if the numbers don't grow significatly during the night, it can mean an early night for me. On the other hand, if you have more than a 20 singer rotation, it can lead to a wait of in excess of 75 minutes for a song which can lead to frustration for some and the serious singers will sometimes leave rather than wait that long.

Sometimes you can't win.
