Weird DJ Requests as revealed by Future Music Festival Asia
Weird DJ Requests seem to be rife, because well hey DJs are our modern day rockstars. So let’s pretend we are E! Entertainment for a minute and gasp over the bizarre requests by some of the world’s most inflated DJ rockstars. Who knows, maybe half of this was done just to offer up some comic relief for the rest of us every day people.
The list goes through to the promoter as something known as a ‘tech rider’ or ‘hospitality rider’ which has a few of the DJ’s requests. Clearly, a few DJs make it their mission to create lists that are strange and brow raising.
Here’s a list of Weird DJ Requests that were Future Music Festival Asia’s Top Ten Requests Ever Made:
- First on the list is a bisexual goldfish.. This isn’t silly at all, everyone knows a bisexual goldfish is always more fun at an after party.
- Environmentally conscious DJs have requested for two large trash cans, a recycling bin and reusable plates to use. Nice one, I like this.
- Being your own biggest fan is a vital success tool. A well-known American DJ had asked for a framed picture of himself to be placed in his dressing room. I bet he takes selfies too.
- A troll DJ rider list includes the promoter’s girlfriend’s phone number, a replica of Indiana Jones’ whip, and a piñata full of candy.
- One has asked for heart-shaped balloons and waitress outfits.
- There is an artist who loves birds, parrots to be specific and likes to travel with one that is trained to say his name. Cute and creepy.
- Then there’s the world famous DJ who when it comes to cars, prefers either a Bugatti Veyron or a Porsche Spyder. Not predictable at all. This one’s very Mariah Carey-esque.
- One has all the furniture removed and replaces them with his own. No control freak issues over here people.
- I’m pretty sure this next DJ cries while watching Downton Abbey. He requests a professional violinist play while he eats his cheese plate. My kind of guy.
- This is my personal favoruite. An infamous moombahton and dancehall DJ requested a bonfire pit in his dressing room to add more sizzle while on tour! Mo’ fire for sure.
