All I ask for is a tall ship and a star to sail her by. Oh, and a half gallon of whiskey. Also, some ice. And diet coke. And maybe a case of Moon Pies and a dozen Hot Pockets (of various flavors). So, in summary, Hot Pockets, Moon Pies, Diet Coke, ice, whiskey, a tall ship, and a star to sail her by.

Damn, that's totally more than 15 words. I guess I just want a tall ship and a star to sail her by after all.

Am in the process of creating my full 20+ page rider for various venues...complete with feng shui-compliant stage and dressing room diagrams. (Plus, I really like those mini boxes of corn pops you can open on the perforation and pour the milk right in) In the mean time - check out the best of's on TheSmokingGun.com

Hah! Great site caralyn. Interesting to see the weird items some of these musicians requests. I've only checked out a few, but I found NIN's juicer requests and Marilyn Manson's need for Gummy Bears humorous.

Yup - TSG posts 'em pretty regularly. My favorite was for a band that I'm blanking on but was written almost entirely tongue in cheek third person with really detailed schematics... gonna have to thumb through them all to figure it out

Finger sandwiches with meats that actually fit the tiny slices of bread.
