What would be on your rider?

[RichardMannion]

Speaking to my good man DMB in his bar chat has given me an idea for an OT thread.

What would you have on your hospitatlity rider? If you don't know what a rider is, or what some crazy inspiration from the celebs then start here.

Mmm, where to start....

1. Simple sandwiches - plain ham is fine. No overt ponciness.
2. Cans of chilled Diet Coke
3. Wireless Internet connection of broadband speed
4. Tea facilities using Twinings English Breakfast teabags.

Easy.. a bowl of M&Ms with the brown ones removed.

3. A nice cheese board with grapes and biscuits

5. Ben and Jerry's Phish Food Ice Cream
6. A set of Ipod speakers

1. A Maarten Baas 'Smoke' club chair upholstered in Paul Smith pinstripe fabric.
2. An iPod and sound system, preloaded with music from a selection provided by my handlers
3. Walker's Pickled Onion crisps
4. Hildon sparkling water with sliced key limes (freshly cut, as I ingest no desiccated citrus)
5. The latest edition of Wallpaper, Conde Nast Traveler, The New Yorker and Freshman magazines
6. An espresso machine staffed by someone from Bar Italia on Frith Street
7. An ice-chilled bottle of Cristal vodka
8. Egg and cress sarnies from Pret
9. A Mac Air with internet connectivity
10. Manchester United highlights DVDs

That should do it.

a good friend of mine who I occasionally go do gigs with has on his rider a piece of Liverpool FC memorabilia at the cost of no more than £10, just to see how creative the venue can be!

I thought the Rider was the cart so just wanted to have a 'go ' on it, then I read what the stars wanted...........
wooh some of em want the flippin' earth.
Sting was a bit pernickety and just looking at 10 pages for Sir PM (the veggie beatle) was enough to put me off reading thru it.[xx(]

I have to say your earlier posts seem quite frugal now apart from Scrooge who is being a bit greedy and star like!!!![:$]

I cant make up my mind what to have (yeh I can hear you say 'just like a woman')

ok ok will a new bike fit on it ???
