I posted this message a couple of day ago in another thread, but the topic was changed, and my post kind of got buried...
http://www.timreynolds.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=6918
Regardless, I'll re-post here...
A few years ago I remember (I think) stumbling upon Tim's Tour Rider. I can't remember for sure though. If this did exist somewhere on the internet, I'd love to see it again. I guess I'm just curious as to what all the specifics are for Tim's request for backstage stuff.
It looks like there's salsa, chocolate, bananas, and coffee. I'm sure that's not all though.
Any ideas? Fluffy, could you share? |

A rusty saw and apples are always a good idea. |

Tim always requires a brandy glass full of yellow M&Ms, a team of eunuchs to carry him around backstage before performances, he also includes pedicures and manicures for himself, Fluffy, and Rew. In addition fifty autographed pictures of Bea Arthur naked and a football full of cottage cheese. |

Wait, I thought Bea Arthur took that photo and singed it just for me! :( I guess we aren't going on a holiday together now |

Ok hopefully this will answer some questions, and give fluffy a 5 min. break from staying up endless hours at night after shows replying to messages. (Which i am sure everyone is thankful for.)
What I saw on the rider (and in the fridge) was some of the following. -bananas -water -Naked meal-o-fruit in a bottle (Fluffy) -Sierra Nevada beer (Rew) -Generally Starbucks Sumatra coffee or coffee of some sort -Hersheys chocolate -chips and salsa -Private lockable dressing room -4 finnish dwarfs -a mechanical bull
some of which vary from show to show, some venues just dont have finnish dwarfs. The rider also stated alot refering to things such as signs and promotions also. As for the backstage goodies and delectible delights, thats pretty much about it. |

Actually, now that you mention it, I remember quite a bit of detail about how Tim's shows can be advertised: how his name and Dave Matthew's can be used, and how large his name can be printed relative to Dave's. Pretty interesting stuff.
Anyhow, I'd really like to see the "real" rider...minus dwarves, Bea Arthur, and cottage cheese footballs (that was really random, Arthen). |

I know for a fact the dwarfs were not finnish. |

Airheads reference as Silky the magnificent pointed out.
I didn't know Rew was a Sierra Nevada man! Being a Chico resident that's my beer of choice and for $5 a six pack, it's the best deal around! |

That Naked stuff is VERY good. I love the strawberry-banana smoothie. Maybe now they should write in a Sprecker Rootbeer (I'll cover the charge ;) ) |
