Care to give an example of the sort of thing you encountered? Purely to satisfy a curious mind :)

- bgarbiak 12y agoHere's the selection of various artists' demands/riders: http://www.thesmokinggun.com/backstage http://www.thesmokinggun.com/backstage Sometimes these riders serve a purpose (Van Halen's case), sometimes they are indeed a caprice, or a joke. If I recall correctly it was Pearl Jam, who once demanded their M&M's to be segregated into jars, and each jar could only contain one color of a candy. There were photos floating around the net with the band members laughing and posing with that jars and the guy who felt into the trap. Oh, life of a rock star ;)
- judk 12y agoThat's just obnoxious and undermines Van Halen's meaningfully safety-oriented gesture.
