    Outrageous Concert Riders: No. 19

    "One (1) Station wagon to meet Artist at point of arrival and departure"
    --Dionne Warwick

    On the list of things that positively rule about being famous, access to anything at any time of day ranks right at the top. Being chauffeured around in a five-star safety-rated mom-mobile does not.

    How funny,
    We catered back stage at Dionne concert in Honolulu with the Honolulu symphany. All she asked for was a bottle of Cristal and some Little Smokey sausages.
    We fed her band very well along with the symphany.
    I thought she was extremly nice & put on a great show.

    Too bad that she is so self-centerd, great talent.

    I bet she wants a station wagon so that she can get out of there unnoticed. Like "wow it looks like Dionne Warwick in that station wagon... nah, couldn't be."

    She should pay her federal taxes, she owes a lot to the IRS.

    Requesting transportation to and from the venue is NOT by any stretch of the imagination--"outrageous!"

    I agree! Look at all the unbelieveable demands Jennifer Lopez makes! A station is nothing!

    No doubt about that. Talk about a living legend. Did you know before she became a pop star she had studied opera at Julliard? (Thank God she met Burt Bacharach and Hal David.) Also, in the catagory of amazing trivia: In the original film version of "Alphie", the title song was sung by Cher. It's on the DVD. Of course Dionne took it to the top. I still listen to her hits often.

    I worked for Dionne in the 1980s. She hates white people and constantly verbally abused the band members.

    Susan don't worry about that racist dope head. Maybe the reason she hates white people is cause thats the people that are usually busted her and the rest of her junkee ass family. Just goes to show you can take the girl outta the ghetto but you can't take the ghetto outta the girl. Talented or not, her and her family are just a bunch of junkees in nice clothes.

    You think she can tell what model van she'll get by consulting her Psychic Network? Freakin scammer. They should have thrown her sorry ass in jail when they shut that thing down. She is probably responsible for hundreds of thousands of poor, stupid people falling for that crap.
