Party time with Jamie Cullum
It's champagne all the way for Swindon's jazz star
Jazz and rock have never really mixed, but in the brilliant new book, 'The Little Red Riders Book', everyone from Jamie Cullum to The Rolling Stones are featured, giving a never-seen-before insight in to the outrageous backstage demands of stars. Aptly named the 'riders' as they are known in the industry, some of the stars' extraordinary requests include a bald hooker with no teeth for Marilyn Manson, and a life-size cut-out of David Hasselhoff for...well, himself. And it seems that local lad Cullum is just as susceptible to the odd demand or two, with the world's finest champagne topping the list. Jamie's backstage list includes:
The Rolling Stones
HP sauce
Shepherd's pie
Paintbrushes
Snooker table
TV (capable for showing cricket matches)
Toilet (on wheels)
...very Rock and Roll! If you can't wait to get your teeth in to this fantastic book, bag your copy for £4.99 from most good Swindon bookshops.
