And why aren't the police allowed backstage? :inquisitive:

 

Probably Guy

 

 

 

;)

^^ THAT.

:laugh3: Bunch of flowers in vase.

Holy crap that was a hilarious read.

 

I'm interested to know why they can't bring their own socks and cigarettes. And 60 towels? What the??

This socks thing makes me laugh :D

And where is the chocolate for Chris in this list?

^ I RECKON.

 

Chris needs his chocolate, just like Guy needs his non-US beer, Will needs his flowers, and Jonny needs his socks.

HAHAHA.They are so demanding in terms of alcohol.NOT Stella because Guy goes crazy when he drinks it.And Will is too good but cheap Chardonnay. US beers are not very good indeed

How much did they smoke at the time??6 packs?

 

Guy goes crazy when on Stella? Why it's not the strongest of drinks!

 

I noticed this:

DINNER x35 (not incl. support band)

 

Nice! :\

Holy crap that was a hilarious read.

Rock stars do not carry around such mundane items! :)

Ha, for a bunch of skinny guys there sure do drink a lot. And seriously, 6 packs of cigs? Really necessary, Guy?

 

Just read the Foo Fighters 2008 rider and seriously whoever wrote this should get a medal, its hilarious! Example: "I WILL CALL OUT A CATERING JIHAD IF WE DO NOT HAVE THESE CUPS!" :laugh3:

im just going to note that all the boys except chris smoked at this time. its not just guy! :laugh3:

Wait...there's no cake on this list

Probably Guy

 

 

 

;)

 

:) No that was decriminalised a long time ago in the UK! ;)

Guy goes crazy when on Stella? Why it's not the strongest of drinks!

 

Yeah, the guys forbid him to drink it cause he acts like a **** when he does.God knows why.Also,Stella is not very good.And I'm Belgian so I know what I'm talking about.

Red Bull, Vodka, 6 packs of cigarettes .......... :confused:

Wait...there's no cake on this list

 

 

:o

you're right! There aren't. It must be because Jonny not suffered the cake's madness in 2003.

BAHAHAHAHAH! "BUNCH OF FLOWERS IN VASE"

 

God, that is epic. Completely and utterly epic.

^^ I dont get it why that one to be necessary :rolleyes:

Very funny to read this - all theses wishes to be fulfilled...

 

8 stamped local post cards - cute

Selection of nibbles (had to look up this word at first :laugh3:)

Bunch of flowers in a vase :daisy:

The socks

24 cans red bull - that is a lot - don't you think?

All the alcoholics - no we don't have a rockstar life :smug:

 

 

About the police - it's related to the stage, the police should not come onto the stage while the performance is going - but of course they will get backstage if they want to even if it's permitted by someone.

Screw this, Blink-182's one is much more an interesting read. The box of Cap'n Crunch, particularly. Minus points for Lucky Charms, I think I've had them before, a bit bland compared to our local Fruit Loops.

The stamped local postcards made me chuckle and also 24 cans of red bull...

 

Now we know where Chris gets all his energy from :P

But how does he stay do damn thin (assuming) he drinks all that booze!

 

[Edina Monsoon, jealously] (s)he's thin!! [/Edina Monsoon, Jealously]

The Coldplay Columbia rider & Postcards?

 

According to the article about Coldplay's rider........

 

"However, they're not all extravagant demands - each band member will also be given a postcard to send their families at home, a tradition that the band goes through in every new location that they visit."

 

So has this been a tradition even before the VLV....and thus inspired the song, ..........

...........or did it come after it and possibly our Postcards From Far Away Project served as a little inspiration as well?!!!

 

 

Cool eh?

Hi Kelly!

 

There was a list from 2003, thread links here and here.

So they're doing it since before already... It's cute! :heart:

What Coldplay need backstage

 

No crappy U.S. beers, Stella Artois, or chardonnay for Chris Martin and his Coldplay mates. But there are plenty of other rock star staples like Marlboro Lights, cotton socks, and an ever-important "selection of nibbles" (we think that's food) waiting in the British band's dressing room. As for Martin's wifey and child back home, it's easy to imagine the joy on tiny Apple's face when mama Gwyneth pulls another "Greetings From Boise" postcard from the family's London letterbox. (3 pages)

Cotton socks ...:smug:

What's Coldplay doing backstage?

 

Ever wonder what life is like backstage for Coldplay? Here's a list of hospitality requirements for the band during the AROBTTH Tour.

 

 

If you wanna see the full list, click the link below. All the other stuff is pretty boring though. Includes stuff like stage setup, crew hospotality etc. Might find a few other bands riders' on there as well.
