Songstress and cancer survivor Sheryl Crow has been all over the news today, and now the Smoking Gun website has obtained a copy of her concert rider which details her mandatory requirements for performances.

According to the posted copies of her rider, a full size bottle of a brand liquor needs to be available to her.
The Smoking Gun, who lists over 200 concert riders of celebrities, states they "never have seen such attention to detail in any other concert rider we've posted."
"Crow requires 12 bottles of Grolsch beer, 6 bottles of 'local' beer, and a bottle each of 'good Australian Cabernet' and 'good Merlot.' As for the harder stuff, promoters are directed to purchase specific booze depending on what day of the week the concert falls, as the below rider excerpt reveals. Additionally, when the global warming warrior hits the road, her touring entourage (and equipment) travels in three tractor trailers, four buses, and six cars. Now that's a carbon footprint!"
Crow claims her vehicles are all powered by Biodiesel,which actually leaves no carbon footprint. We have no idea how many rolls of toilet paper are required for her dressing room.
Monday is Maker's Mark bottle of Bourbon Day. Tuesday is Bombay Gin bottle day. Wednesday is Courvosier Brandy Day. Thursday is Good Quality Champagne bottle day. Friday is Silver Tequila and Margarita mix bottle day. Saturday is Absolut Vodka and orange juice bottles day. Sunday is a repeat of Friday-more Tequila and Mixer for margaritas.
