You are not going to believe what music stars command per performance and what they require backstage. 

TheSmokingGun.com has published some random details from stars' summer tour riders. The highlights:

Skid Row (one of my favorite bands from back in the day) demands that their promoters to purchase their guitar picks and they also ask to be put up in "nothing less than a first class hotel". So, what does this mean you ask? Quote, "Comfort Inn, Clarion, Sleep Inn, et cetera." Wasn't aware that a hotel 50 feet off the interstate was considered a "first class hotel" but whatever. Skid Row, by the way commands $13,500 per show.

The Incredible Fainting Meat Loaf asks for complimentary oxygen tanks and a nebulizer to treat his chronic asthma. He also requires two medical professionals to be available to "administer oxygen and/or care as needed beginning 30 minutes before a show. THIS IS A MUST." He also commands $100 thousand dollars per concert.

Whitesnake gets $85 grand per show and David Coverdale is extremely picky about his backstage post show food. He asks for two freshly prepared chicken and vegetable wraps with no tomato, onions, peppers, broccoli, cauliflower, beets, garlic or cheese. He is also a fan of soup and hates restaurants that close before 10:30pm.

What would you have on your tour rider?
