BACKSTAGE RIDER: Hall of Fame

Prince

Prince backstage rider

Back in the 1990s, Prince needed a doctor backstage to "administer a B-12 injection."

And while there's still a medicine man around for his 2004 Musicology tour, the 46-year-old musician is now downing Yogi cocoa tea and surrounding himself with the soothing aroma of jasmine and lavender candles (so it's anyone's guess why the artist formerly known as the Artist still needs that medical professional daily at 6 PM).

We also salute Prince for setting up tables "at all entry points for collection of Gifts and Flowers." Only a performer who really cares about his fans makes it easy for them to shower him with loot. (8 pages)

He really does care becuase he is a true performer and musician unlike the rest of these wannabees.

For The Rolling Stones, nothing screams backstage debauchery more than snooker.
