The headline in Charlotte Higgin's diary from the Hay Festival in today's Guardian reads Diva Minchin's rider demands. She's seen his rider for the Festival. "Musically and lyrically talented comedian Tim Minchin has delighted the crowds with his witty, wry, humane, bittersweet songs. Using the skills of investigative journalism, I made a startling discovery about the nature of this man's rider: 155 blue M&Ms."
Tim's obviously gone soft. Back in 2007 his rider demanded:
Please also make sure that somewhere in the building there is:
113 Blue M&Ms in a ceramic bowl which has been washed with angel's saliva then placed in a the centre of a one-man tent. Some venues thinks a two-man tent will suffice. It won't."
No shortage of one-man tents at Hay, no doubt. But angels? Does wearing fairy wings count?
