Van Halen's Backstage Concert Rider

Since The Smoking Gun began publishing backstage concert riders about 10 years ago, they have been searching for the most famous rider of them all, the one in which Van Halen famously stipulated that brown M&M's were to be banished from the band's dressing room.

Well, the hunt is over. The Smoking Gun has finally obtained the 1982 Van Halen World Tour rider - typewritten and 53 pages long - containing the M&M prohibition.
