things chaka khan hates: alcohol, stairs, and alcohol.
i divined this information from this tour rider i found @ listoftheday via the smoking gun.
i dunno, call me crazy, but i think she should have been more of an asshole about things. seriously, if im ever important enough to have a list of demands for things that need to be waiting for me wherever i go? i’m puttin somebody to WORK. itd look just like this:
Richy von Moneyheimer (formerly Brokey McPoverty) must have the entire second, fifth, and eleventieth floors completely to herself. each room should contain the following:
One (1) life sized card-board cut outs of Bea Arthur
One (1) life sized, full length poster of soul singer D’Angelo circa 2000 on the ceilings above the beds. IMPORTANT: the poster MUST be of D’Angelo circa 2000. Any resemblance of singer D’Angelo to rap star Ol’ Dirty Bastard is strictly unacceptable.
Three (3) hundred thousand barillion lbs of crab rangoon from the New Number One Panda Dragon Emperor restaurant
All tubs must be filled with the sweet virgin tears of disillusioned orphans, shed upon the realization that Santa Claus doesn’t exist
Four (4) large bowls of red peanut M&Ms
Four (4) large bowls of blue peanut M&Ms
Two (2) midgets dressed in red and blue M&M costumes
Plenty of room for the aforementioned midgets to enact a Bloods & Crips M&M battle upon request
President-Elect Barack Obama in as little clothing as possible
Lots and lots of security to keep his stronger-than-me wife away from my quarters.
