About this title

Synopsis

The Foo Fighters want stinky cheese, while Babs requires rose petals in her toilet. Elton John had better not show up to find chrysanthemums, and the Black Eyed Peas just ask that they have a sober monitor engineer. The Little Red Riders Book is a collection of the excessive, strange, and fascinating backstage demands of many of the biggest and most influential musical superstars and icons. These demands, known as riders, can offer detailed and often hilarious insight into a performer or band's personality and lifestyle. This unique reference guide for music and pop-culture vultures alike zips through the last 50 years of rock and roll to bring the reader the plain, the strange, the weird, and the sizeable requests that artists have made when performing live on tour around the world. What canine-related request does Lily Allen need met? What food can 50 Cent really not live without? And of whom does David Hasselhoff require a life-size cutout? It may only be rock and roll but these superstars, divas, and artists like it a certain way—their way.
