In addition I'm sure every deejay also has a private list of riders..
ie. how many booth bunnies and fluffers do you need?
Here's my rider if I ever become an international performer:
2 x 1L Greygoose
1 x case of chilled Sagres
1 x rubber duck to add to my collection that I don't have
1 x box of assorted wigs
1 x boot
2 x fluffers; one male and one female
5 x silly glasses
1 x burlesque performer matching my outfit colours
1 x body double when I need to temporarily leave for sexual activities, washroom breaks, and costume changes
1 x hardcover animal-print book to be passed around the venue for patrons to write ridiculous things in/collect numbers

10 hookers
10 grams of blow
10 huge rubber dildos attached to poles (the object not the person, but if you can find 10 Poles its cool so long as they are organic) in a mayan circle to please 10 wenches at once
a raincoat
the night off.
My rider is now public information and seems to be the talk on my Twitter timeline so I’ll break down some of the more juicier bits of it since people are asking.
I travel with a small crew. Usually I am with my road manager, videographer and now sometimes a photographer as well so at any given show I am with 2 to 3 other people that I have to take care of.
Our lives are dedicated to living on the road and part of living on the road is learning how to travel efficiently. In most cases we all just travel with hand carry on and limit what we are bringing so it’s easier to get on flights and be more flexible with space so we don’t have to always travel in vans (because of our luggage). In those cases, whatever the promoter brings to us becomes our outfit for the day. Socks and underwear are shared between me and my crew. The large black V-neck t-shirts are actually for my tour manager. Nothing against him but I’m not a V-neck kinda guy! For the rest, let’s just go down the list…
Hospitality Requirements:
The Listerine because you can’t bring liquids with you on flights. We end up usually getting $100 cash dinners and fending for ourselves because each person has their own preferences to what they want to eat. For example, one guy in my squad hates organic food and is a McDonalds & Taco Bell man so that’s where we go to take care of him. In the end, the local organic grass food that I prefer doesn’t always get dished up our way, but I put it in there hoping that it does because I’d rather eat at those spots cuz they rule (#SupportOrganic)! Hot Green Tea is the period and I drink it almost every night before a show. One large cheese pizza is for my crew…too many calories for me. One whole lemon, one twig of ginger, and one bottle of organic honey is for my throat cuz I tend to lose my voice. Ok, 4 Odwallas is pushing it, I don’t really need this. In a way, writing this all out is good for my efficiency as I was stating earlier. Organic fruits is my sugar intake. The meat and cheese wraps is for my crew. Two bottles of Cristal is definitely a ballin’ move. Do I need it? No, but if I can get it…sweet!
The rest of the rider you can see for yourself. As for the “miscellaneous” items, the first time I saw the director’s chair on the rider was when I saw the blog that put up my rider in the first place (unnecessary management decision). The local grass is for someone else in my crew (another unnecessary management decision) and both have been deleted off the rider but I am a fan of wheat grass shots. I should probably add wheat in the front of grass from now on to be more clear. There it is for all to judge.
I'm sorry but that line just cracked me up big time. How does one hate "organic food"??

I appreciate his honesty about the Cristal, lol. :)

Maybe Van Halen's demand that all the brown M&M's be removed from their backstage snacks isn't so unreasonable. Madonna reportedly has a much longer list of demands. The superstar singer is currently performing her MDNA series of shows, which kicked off at the end of May and continue until December. In Touch apparently got hold of the Material Girl's backstage rider which states that she is travelling with a 200-person entourage. The team of staff includes 30 bodyguards, personal chefs, an acupuncturist, a yoga instructor and an on-site dry cleaner. She also is said to expect her dressing room to have 20 international phone lines and only vegan snacks. The room where the singer prepares herself before getting on stage has to be draped in a particular fabric and filled with white and light pink roses and lilies. The stems have to be trimmed to exactly six inches. When the 53-year-old gets back to her hotel room in which ever city she is in, she apparently expects her space to be like a home away home. "Madonna requires all furniture be removed from the rooms and replaced with her own pieces that she has shipped in," a source revealed.

Brings her own furniture hahah

Not really hard with a set up like hers. Just pop the furniture in one of the 3 53 foot trailers they use to ship the staging from show to show.

also read that she has a group of CSI-like cleaners that remove all traces of her DNA from those rooms - the room is literally sterilized after
and that her team builds fake walls and ceiling inside the room to make sure no hidden cameras are planted
le crazy
she's being really retarded now - flashing her granny bits at every show, gross.
