8 Outrageous Tour Rider Demands and Other Requests

Tour riders are often some of the most interesting parts of any artist or band's tour. They often offer an inside look into just how high-maintenance some artists can be. This is often exemplified by how specific their requests might be. Some rock stars require specific kinds of food and drink, while others clearly want a dressing room that sets a certain mood. Some tour riders feature requests so outrageous they must be a joke. Other tour riders -- like one infamous one at the very end of our list -- feature details that are actually requests to see if you read the rider at all. Our list below highlights eight tour riders. The first from Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band is the latest to make headlines. (Make no mistake: When a tour rider is leaked, it almost always makes headlines. There are at least a few items on it that leave you asking, "Umm...really?!") Without further ado, keep scrolling and find out which of your favorite rock stars have interesting requests on their tour riders.
