I was browsing The Smoking Gun and looking at various groups backstage riders for their concerts. Some seem ridicoulous (did you know Carrot Top wants a female masseuse at every show?) and others funny (The Foo Fighters will only share their dressing room with Oasis or Led Zepplin)
Does anyone know of a Hip rider floating around anywhere? It would be fun to see and compare to the other acts.
I remember reading an interview with Eddie Van Halen as their rider had some strange stuff in it. He says the reason they put the weird stuff in is to make sure if the rider is actually read, as there is "important safety stuff in there too". So, I can see his point..... though most people I think just do it because they are stars....
