SUPERSTAR DJ Fatboy Slim is set for Belfast next Saturday to play Giant’s Park at Dargan Road and his rider list is in.
I managed to get a sneak peak at the DJ’s backstage demands and surprisingly they aren’t that bad despite being a little weird.
Famed for chart topping tracks such as Praise You and Right Here Right Now, Norman Cook (AKA Fatboy) has requested everything from Organic carrot juice, self-righteous organic peanut butter and two pints of fat-free milk to smoothies, mineral water, energy drinks – nothing that out of the ordinary.
But a source at Planet Love Promotions, who are running the event, said that’s not all. My insider added: “Norman has asked for a ‘A Louisville Slugger baseball bat + sponge ball’ and even stated ‘not a real baseball as things get broken’ as well as ‘six air-horns’.â€
And I can also reveal he won’t be having a drink when he’s here either.
He’s requested “no alcohol†in his changing room because he “no longer drinks†and is “following a healthy lifestyle†with wife Zoe Ball.
Also appearing on the bill at Giant’s Park are Zane Lowe, who requested “four limes and a copy of the latest edition of NMEâ€, and Kissy Sell Out, who want “fruit sandwichesâ€.
Joining them on stage will be Deadmau5, Sidney Samson, Thomas Gandey and Belfast’s very own DJ Mog.
If you missed out getting tickets to the sell-out gig I have some great news for you – last night promoters released an additional 100 VIP tickets for sale via www.ticketmaster.ie and www.plmpromotions .
