The grandaddies of rock (surely that should be the great-grandaddies by now), the Rolling Stones, have really calmed down over the years.
The backstage demands for their US tour 'The Bigger Bang' are all the more shocking because they are sooo mild. As reported in Hello! Magazine the promoters at New York's Madison Square Garden where asked to provide bowls of white Casablanca Lillies for Keith Richards, Ronnie Woods and Charlie Watts.
The only thing Mick Jagger wanted was to be able to keep up with the cricket scores, so make sure this happened he brought his own TV and VCR!! The 62 year old also needs a 25ft room to warm up in before each performance.
They also wanted enough room for the snooker table that travels with them - to use in their down time. The group went on to ask for white roses, dethorned and wrapped, to be given out to back up performers and crew. What Gents!!!
