Wilf's illustrations take a light hearted look at the bizarre and intriguing requests listed in a bands contract rider.
The contract rider is a legal document containing terms and conditions that must be satisfied before a band will
put on a scheduled concert. Failure to provide items on the contract rider can result in an embarrassing
show-cancelling drama queen tantrums.
The most infamous contract rider probably belongs to 80’s rock group Van Halen, which included a bowl of M&M sweets in their dressing room – clearly stating that all of the brown coloured ones be removed before the band arrived.
