Title: What's in your Rider?
Post by: Cartierfor3 on March 05, 2015, 09:50:18 AM
Famous musicians and comedians and people like that get a backstage rider, that the venue that hosts them has to fulfill in order to have them as a performer. Some guys just like a 12 pack of Bud Light in a cooler, but others want some really extravagant stuff like a bottle of actual human tears or something.

If you were allowed such provisions, what would be in your rider?

I need someone to give me a good pep talk before I go on stage. Maybe like Tony Robbins or something.

The pros know how to play their songs like they know how to walk and talk.   Its just a routine rhythm that's ingrained in them.
