Musicians That Have The STRANGEST Demands When Travelling!

Musicians That Have The STRANGEST Demands When Travelling!

Welcome back to Animal Craze, today on the channel we are going to talk about the Musicians and actors that have INCREDIBLE demands. We all know that many celebrities are incredibly fussy and like to exert their power, and this is most evident through their riders and contract demands. Often these are completely outrageous and give you a clear insight into their quirky personalities and neurosis, but sometimes they are also having a bit of fun with the promoters and do not expect all of their demands to be met. Often the riders will focus on food, drink and clothing as they are constantly on the road, but you will also get some baffling requests which are sure to raise a few eyebrows.

Van Halen – Bowl of M&Ms With the Brown Ones Picked Out. The most famous rider request of all time, glam metal act Van Halen, would request that at each show there was a bowl of M&Ms available with all of the brown ones picked out during their 1982 tour. Now at first this may just seem like arrogant celebrities abusing their power (which in a way it is), but also, as explained by the editor of The Smoking Gun, it was a test to see if the promoters were paying attention to what was listed. If they arrive and find brown M&Ms, then what is to say that they haven’t made mistakes with the lighting, music gear, security etc. Iggy & The Stooges – Seven Dwarves. One of the most influential and eccentric characters in the music industry, Iggy Pop was clearly having some fun when he and The Stooges came up with their now-legendary 18 page dossier as a tour rider. There are many great highlights in this enormous document, but the best and most outrageous is without a doubt “seven dwarves, dressed up as those dwarves out of that marvelous Walt Disney film.” Apparently if dwarves were not available, a belly dancer would have sufficed. Clearly this, and most of the other requests, were completely unrealistic and never met (as far as we know), and it is simply a case of a band having fun with the promoter.
