MY DREAM RIDER BY BEN MASTERS FROM TAPESTRY

My name is Ben Masters and I play drums in Tapestry.

1. A Masseuse

I am purely getting to that age now where everything’s starting to hurt and playing drums. It hurts sometimes when you’re playing really hard.

2. Xbox

If I need to zone out for a bit, do my own thing.

3. Beer

If I have to be specific, it would be Stone & Wood on tap would be what I would enjoy the most.

4. Practice Drum Kit

If we we’re going crazy with it, and I’ve got the room for it, anactual full drum kit just to practice on, just to warm up.

5. The Best Ramen Chefs In The World

I need to eat before playing. So if I could just have a bowl of ramen, that’s incredible. Every single day, I would be probably the best drummer in the world at that point.

6. A Studio Set Up

A little studio set up so I can write music when I’m on the fly and I don’t have to worry about bringing my own stuff. That is really painful. That would be great.

7. Backstage Gym Set Up

A backstage gym setup purely for the boys. I know Tom and Luke really like to do that stuff.

8. A Vocal Warm Up Room

Tom has this thing that he uses to warm up his vocal cords, but if we could put that in a room so he can just walk into the roomand it just hydrates all of his vocals. Like a sauna but it’s distilled water, so it’s not super-hot.

9. A Pet Zone

Dogs, cats, honestly, whatever animal wants to come hang. Needs to be kind of down with a bit of a cuddle. Yeah, I’m into that. So we’ve got pet zone. What else can we do?

10. Slabs Of Water

I feel like I’m searching for water when I’m at shows.
