Gazza Ok..so youve heard all this 'diva' nonsense about Jennifer Lopez requiring 10 dressing rooms for an appearance on "Top of the pops" and Mariah Carey insisting on pink toilet paper and no staircases leading towards the stage because "I don't DO stairs" but have you ever wondered what the Stones' demands are like when THEY are on the road?

Here's an example of their rider from the BTB tour. Thanks to Gary Robertson for sending it on....

100 Years Ago pretty reasonable considering it's for THE GREATEST ROCK N ROLL BAND in the world...hell i was expecting thrones, naked slave chicks, $1000 bottles of champagne...you can't consider the Stones diva-like that's for sure!

doo doo doo Dude These are tame and reasonable demands. If anything it proves how un-diva they are. They're the Rolling fucking Stones for God's sake!

That chick is a booze hound

corgi37 Thats cause Sheryl needs booze to cop the pain of the massive length of Corgi. Either that, or i is one ugly bastard, and she needs to get pissed to pretend its Keith.

Angiegirl Hmm, pretty decent. Maybe Keef should stay clear of the combat games, so he won't be so pissed with Mick onstage

Factory Girl Two questions-what is the difference btwn pool and snooker tables?

jb Snooker was developed from the American bumper pool game...

Nellcote JB, you'll need this info correct if you travel to the UK later this year. Snooker was developed by the British, Devonshire Regiment in India, 1875. I'm certain some of our UK friends will provide further colour on this...

egon "The Rolling Stones were once the world's greatest rock band--back when Keith was on smack and crawled around dressing room floors looking for his misplaced works"


WHAT THE FUCK?

jb Nellcote...I just love bumper pool and thought we should take some credit for such a wonderful game....

Gazza Snooker tables are larger than pool tables (12 ft by 6 ft,if I'm not mistaken)

The spotting & layout of the balls (no sniggering please) is also different in snooker

ie :
CUE BALL (WHITE)


YELLOW BROWN GREEN



BLUE


PINK


REDS (X 15)


BLACK



The pockets are also quite different - pool is a bit easier, IMO!!
