I’m happy to do a little bit later of longer thread, I saw a lot of weird stuff when I worked with ‘talent’ in my field. Concerts suck so bad, you have no idea

Whoa, you made concerts too? I was a stage hand for a few years. One artist was vegan (I want to say Paul McCartney) so all the catering had to be vegan, it all looked like greens and vinegar to me, so I went to the vending machine to get hot cheetos, all the employee vending machines were covered.
That sounds like Morrissey. We always had to be fully vegan when he came through. Also we couldn’t sell water bottles (per his rider) because they kept getting thrown at him. Guy sucks
Only a dozen of the concerts I helped set up ever felt like the music could stand on its own, every concert had to be a big visual experience so you wouldn't get bored. It always felt like a waste of time and funds.
