Despite a well-deserved reputation for sex, drugs, and rock and roll, Van Halen was a group of professionals. They cared about the technicalities of their shows, and those technicalities were important&#8211;both for the band&#8217;s safety and for the quality of the performance the audience enjoyed. Their contracts included a lot of technical details they needed to be taken care of in order for their performance to be what it needed to be. In order to see if the venue had paid attention to the technicalities, they included a provision that they wanted M &amp; M&#8217;s in the dressing room, but they did not want brown M &amp; M&#8217;s. If they walked into the dressing room and saw brown M &amp; M&#8217;s, they knew they needed to check the technical aspects of the show carefully before the performance.<\/p>\n<p>Hillary also has very specific conditions for her appearances. Unfortunately, hers have little to do with the enjoyment of her audience.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This is a YouTube video of an ABC new report on the travel arrangements required by Hillary Clinton when she is making a speech: The video is posted at an article at Hot Air about Mrs. Clinton&#8217;s requirements.
