No brown M&Ms

From The Daily Dish (via Angry Bear) or vice versa?:

The Smoking Gun has found Van Halen\'s infamous "no brown M&M\'s in the band\'s dressing room" rider. Why did the band ask for this?:

While the underlined rider entry has often been described as an example of rock excess, the outlandish demand of multimillionaires, the group has said the M&M provision was included to make sure that promoters had actually read its lengthy rider. If brown M&M\'s were in the backstage candy bowl, Van Halen surmised that more important aspects of a performance--lighting, staging, security, ticketing--may have been botched by an inattentive promoter.
