It’s no secret the top dog duo of Diplo & Skrillex aka Jack Ü are killing it as one of the most versatile DJ/production teams in recent memory, seamlessly incorporating guests as diverse as AlunaGeorge, 2 Chainz, and Justin Bieber into their impossible-to-nail-down brand of trap-influenced dance music.

Thanks in part to the popularity of the aforementioned Justin Bieber collaboration and some monster festival sets, they’ve also become hugely successful. In case you ever forget how the other half lives, a leaked image of their tour rider is worth checking out.

While not as odd as Diplo’s 2011 rider – which politely suggested promoters stock the dressing rooms with a VHS tape of third season of Lost, an inflatable swimming pool, and a trained talking parrot, among other eccentricities – the current Jack Ü list includes mainly health food and clean clothes.

No-show H&M socks to keep ‘em smelling good jumping around on stage, fresh fruit and vegetable plates, plenty of Caesar salads, and kombucha juice – side by side with almost every conceivable variety of alcohol. Bottles of Moet, Grey Goose, Fireball, Patron, rum and wine and enough beer to keep the two electronic dance music superstars’ afterparty effectively turnt.

How does one even get up for sound check the next day with this kind of stock? And who the hell doesn’t want croutons in their Caesar salad? See the rider below:
