The Stars and Their Demands on the Road

Rock bands can be pretty fickle on stage and in their personal lives, yet when it comes to the requests some bands make for their venue dressing rooms – it can get really funky. Here are some odd demands or requirements for dressing rooms a few of the biggest stars require while on the road…

Metallica requires the venue to provide enough breakfast food for 100 people, with lots of bacon.

During one tour Motely Crue’s rider (what the host must provide in the dressing room for the members of the band) included a boa constrictor and a schedule for local Alcoholics’ Anonymous meetings.

All toilet seats in the Madonna dressing rooms during one tour had to be brand new and needed to have signed affidavits to that affect.

PS – the greatest band ever the Beatles only asked for a large black and white TV and Coca Cola to be available in their dressing room. My, how times have changed.
