I half expected to see some of the band's hospitality riders mentioned here...then again, I don't know where or with whom that business get negotiated.  I've always wondered how reasonable or random U2's riders are.  Anyone know?

Can anyone dish up U2's company accounts?

Now THAT would be eye-opening.

hospitality riders are negotiated between the band and the promoter.
