Mike,
one of the funniest things I've read in a long time.
Some people just seems to go by cool names they've heard somewhere.
But who on earth puts Behringer in a rider?

Have fun, good luck.

I just thought I would get this off my chest. I hate getting riders from people that ask for 'A' class gear (H3K, Meyer etc...) and con not spell or ask for stuff that does not exist. Here are some of the popular ones:

mike = mic
base = bass
42 channel mixer with 7 auxes

WTF???



I got one this wek that required a 48 channel desk at FOH..and the input list is 20 channels?????

So they don't have to share channels with support acts?

It happens more often than you would think.  I had a rider last year that specced an extensive list of quality gear all the way until it hit the compressors which read "We require 12 compressors. Suitable units are DBX or Behringer Composer Pro"

I just received a rider that details exactly how much SPL the system should deliver at 'standard vocal range and high end' 50 Hz to 20kHz, as well as 40hz, 30hz and 20hz.
