It's sold as "Bud" or "Bud Beer" i.e. Budweiser (Budvar) in Europe, but for obvious reasons they can't use that name here.

When it comes to Sheryl Crow's touring requirements, if it's Tuesday, this must be Bombay. Gin that is. The rock star's performance contract includes specific day-to-day instructions on what kind of booze Sheryl needs in her dressing room (TSG has never seen such attention to detail in any other concert rider we've posted). For each show, Crow requires 12 bottles of Grolsch beer, 6 bottles of "local" beer, and a bottle each of "good Australian Cabernet" and "good Merlot." As for the harder stuff, promoters are directed to purchase specific booze depending on what day of the week the concert falls, as the below rider excerpt reveals. Additionally, when the global warming warrior hits the road, her touring entourage (and equipment) travels in three tractor trailers, four buses, and six cars. Now that's a carbon footprint!

GMTA!! I was just quickly scrolling through to see if anyone posted this comment! LMAO!!
When I was younger and in England, I used the bathroom at Heathrow. On the edge of each sheet were the words “Government Property”. My father insisted we save the used paper and return it to its rightful owner. We ziplocked it closed really well and mailed it back to a labor leader when we got to the states.
I was puzzled over that as well. No size specified.
I can't image anyone buying my socks for me much less asking them. Weird and somehow creepy.
Actually, a tour manager once gave me a very good reason for Van Halen including that "no brown M&Ms" clause in their contract rider. He said it was in there because tour management knew that if the venue actually DID remove the brown M&Ms, they'd know not to expect any technical problems with the show, because the venue actually read the riders and took them seriously. If there were brown M&Ms, they knew they could expect tech problems with the show.
Don't know if that's true or not, but it makes strange but somehow good sense to me.

dead...that’s disgustin!
Actually that would be quite funny to see toilet paper rolls flying on stage.
Knew some guy who once dated her years back before she made it solo.
He said there was heavy mileage. But if you have her early albums you already know why. She’s a hippie chick.
I heard Lance is a Bush supporter or otherwise conservative - which seems to be a plausible excuse for their demise as a couple. I bet he just got tired of her.
That beer looks like a ripoff of my girl Stella.
I love Stella Artois. In the summer it goes down like water. :)
I think its something more exotic than alcohol.
Actually, that is what beer tastes like when they put some real hops in it!

In the mid 90’s my better half worked at a major hotel in West LA that had many an awards show and benefit. One was a Tommy Hilfiger (sp?) fashion show with Gwen Stefani - before she was mega star and Cheryl Crow was the ‘headliner’.
My daughter was about 9 yrs old and like many kids of staff execs got to see the show.
Gwen was very nice and gave her an autograph. Crow was a total beotch... too good to deal with the little people (literally- Ha).....
Never really liked her since. She has been going toward the country music audience, but as far as I’m concerned no different than the Ditsy Chix.
At the very least a SoftSoap dispenser... wouldn’t you think???
Very silly... very creative.... ; ~ )
That’s okay. The TP remark kind of took over the news moment. Sort of blew them out of the toilet bowl on this one.
