This doesn't pertain to BOC directly, but...

I remember reading an article in our paper several years ago (I
thought it was locally written, but I suppose they might have been
taken off the wire).  It was written by a guy who had worked backstage
at a big concert stadium, and what the bands behaved like.  There was
a whole section devoted to food and drink.  Practically all the bands
ordered loads of junk food, along with cases of beer and whiskey...
sometimes more exotic stuff.  The only exception was Megadeth, who
ordered fresh-squeezed fruit juices and mineral water.  I found that
sort of amusing.
