Mojo Nixon had "maybe the best tour rider" ever
boingboing.net
Shortly after his death, Mojo Nixon’s tour rider (a “Very Reasonable Rider to Contract”) also began making the rounds again on the internet.

Excerpts quoted in the article:

Be Nice: (A) Elvis was always polite; (B) Have a good time; (C) Don’t beat up rowdy fans unless absolutely necessary.

Beer, Snacks, Beer, Dinner and Booze: (A) Snacks in dressing room for soundcheck. Cheese crackers or such; (B) One case of Budweiser on ice. More beer if we need it. Sometimes we do.

Dressing Room: (A) Big enough for four grown people at least; (B) Bathroom or three piss jars.

Loaders: (A) Just a couple of guys or gals to help carry stuff from van to stage and back again.

    Damn, hadn’t even heard that he died, though it appears it was just a month ago (Feb. 7). I first found out about him through the game, Redneck Rampage (1997), he was on the soundtrack for it.

      Never played the game or heard the soundtrack, but I thought, “I bet The Reverend Horton Heat is also on it.” I looked up the soundtrack album and yep, track 3. Mojo is track 1.
