Hmm, not much response, which is a shame, because at some point it will be useful to have this sort of data when they start spending money on the arts again, or if anyone needs figures to use when negotiating with PRS etc.

Graham, perhaps it would be a good idea for you to say who you are and what you plan to do with the data. It would be a great shame if people failed to help you out in fear that you had some kind of nefarious purpose.

Also, the comments above are valid. It's always a good idea to include an 'n/a' option.

I'm assuming the intention is to obtain consumer views, rather than data on who does what?

If you want the latter, maybe you need to identify the club or session (Name / Host venue), so you can collate the results. Otherwise you may get 50 people all referring to the same club, and many clubs not represented, but you might think you had a representative sample.
