I had to stay at 2 Red Roof Inns for a gig in Texas. Not sure if it was just there or everywhere, but they were surprisingly not as shit as I was thinking they would be.
This fucking dweeb has to be losing prospective gigs because of this rider. I've opened for bands signed to Warner Bros and shit -- bands with actual followings -- and I guarantee none of them were as demanding as Dress Up Joe. New drum heads for a cover band? Get the fuck out of here. A drum key? Does his fucking drummer seriously not bring his own drum key? And don't even get me started on the alleged "5-Star" hotels he lists. Joe wants to be coddled for performing someone else's music.
Anyone who hires this band, pays their rate and honors their rider, is a fucking rube. I bet Joe bitches and whines like crazy if they get one thing wrong on the rider.

He considers these 5 star hotels: i.e. Holiday Inn, Sheridan, Days Inn

Knights Inn Suites will also suffice.

Red roof inn is 4 star. Super 8 is 3.
A Hardees walk in freezer is 2.

Joe's favorite sandwich is when he's between the guys from Right Said Fred.
