    Default Artist contract riders

    This is a cool find.

    Listed are artists contract riders. It is all about what stage gear they need for back lines, food, drink, accommodations etc. for the purchaser to provide for them on the day of their shows. Very enlightening and funny.

    Iggy Pop's is a clasic.

    Cool Spuds! Iggy's was a hoot. I was surprised to see Ted Nugent did not want any Styrofoam and polystyrene and was somewhat conservative overall.

    I can't say that I've given up on a flanger cause I've never liked the effect either. I also can't say the same about Tremolo. I hate them both equally. - Tone2TheBone 2009

    Now, Iggy's rider is a classic! I laughed out loud at that one. Made the others look boring.

    I think the monitor tech from Santiago de Compostela described in Iggy's rider has moved to Rockville, Maryland and is running sound at the F. Scott Fitzgerald Center.
