What music fan hasn’t wasted hours combing through the contract riders of their favorite musicians over at The Smoking Gun? If you haven’t, hop to it. You can thank me later… I bring this topic up because I may have just found the greatest contract rider of all time in an article that the LA [...]

Wednesday, February 23rd, 2005
