Toronto Sun Feb. 6, 1997 -------------------------- SATAN CLAUSE IS COMING TO TOWN: You're Glenn Danzig, of the necro-rock band Danzig. And you've got demands. Last time around, when Danzig played the Concert Hall, the New Jersey band supplied the concert promoters with a contract rider that prompted giggles. To wit: "Please provide the following...Ten girls between 18-24. Must have a general knowledge of politics, religion and sports and not live more than a $5 cab ride from the venue." For their gig tonight at the Warehouse,there's no mention of females. But along with the usual staples (Guinness, whisky, Gummi Bears,Snapple), there's a rider that has to do with Danzig's coy nods to Satanism (a gimmick he plied long before ghoul-come-lately Marilyn Manson). In capital letters the contract stipulates: "ALL GARLIC AND RELIGIOUS ARTIFACTS TO BE REMOVED FROM THE FACILITY PRIOR TO ARTIST'S ARRIVAL." Did we mention this guy is on the Disney-owned Hollywood Records label? MCA Concerts reps joked yesterday about frisking fans for concealed religious tchatches. The garlic pretty much announces itself.
