Riders of the Stooge, Including Pandas, a Bob Hope Impersonator, and Some Decent Red Wine Dammit
Required reading. The impossibly entertaining concert rider for Iggy and The Stooges has been making the rounds since The Smoking Gun posted it last week.
It was apparently written by Jos Grain, who is The Stooges’ drum roadie. My pal Hell’s Donut House informs me that Mike Watt (who’s playing bass with them, ya know) posted to the Chugchanga list about it, saying “I don’t have a bass tech or assistant hair tech or anything - I’m just watt trying to help these guys out and not there to make demands I think jos was just trying to spook some promoter people into getting good amps, I guess.”
“I’m really lucky to be doing this w/the stooges (big time) and am not at all picky,” Mike continued. “the only thing I kind of wish for rider shit is a little really hot chili salsa, like stuff w/habaneros to go w/tortilla chips but it ain’t all that critical.”
Thoughtfully, Mike also provided a link to an HTML copy of the rider at Jos’ site.
