Some kind of outdoor (charity?) festival?

[Jules]

That must be a mistake, I guess its 4000 in a big theater...

Hi ,

Quick fix about this interview : Nein would means No

so :
-- ----------------------------
GA: Are you still in contact with your brother?

Knopfler: NO.

GA: That is sad.

Knopfler: Not really.

----------------------------
Regards.

For the ones not that fond of DK, the translation was correct(read again):

GA: Are you still in contact with your brother?
Knopfler: Yes.
GA: That is sad.
Knopfler: Not really.
 
And I think the misunderstanding with the 40000 people comes from the use of the coma (,) that in some languages is used between numbers instead of (.)

Policians doesnt say YES or NO, they always says "Kind of maybe"

Dear jbaent, LE got it right. Politicians rarely say "kind of maybe"  and when they do is before they quit or get fired for actually telling the truth: that they don't have the slightest idea. But maybe in your country you have honest politicians. Remember the old joke: How do you know that a politician lies? - He opens his mouth (or her mouth since equality of the sexes mean equality in lies as well)
