Music Artists' Contract Riders

I don't know if this has been posted here but I hope you guys can check this out. I never thought Contract/Technical Riders are to these extent!

The contract rider includes specifications on stage design, sound systems, lighting rigs, as well as an artist's wish list--from transportation and billing to dressing room accommodations and meals. In some cases, a promoter will refuse a demand (crossing out the request on the document), though stars usually get what they want, whether it's clean boxer shorts (Jane's Addiction), prune juice (Kansas), or an arrangement of tulips, roses, gardenias, and lilies (Janet Jackson).

You can check out what your favorite artist need when they're up there.

Don't forget to check out Foo Fighters! They have this "underpants requirement" during their tours.

Enjoy!
