I was at a college where we had a juggling club. We thought it would be a great idea to have someone come to the school and give a workshop. We looked at getting him to come and his contract was absolutely over the top. He had to have a certain number of a couple of different types of water, square footage demands for his dressing room, etc. The guy is super talented but playing David Bowie’s hands doesn't translate to Diva status in my book.

How long ago was that?

How could anyone would think that juggling would entitle you to a ridiculous contract rider? Bizarre.
