MATT DRISCOLL: '80S ROCKERS TO PLAY STATION 56>>>L_225d095d2d2ca76070468dcd60e69222

I’m lucky. I don’t really remember the ’80s, mainly because I was born in them. This fact saves me from many horrible musical memories, not to mention the lingering side effects of copious hair spray use. It also keeps me from knowing what to expect when White Lion â€" who left their mark on the ’80s with songs like “Wait” and “When the Children Cry” â€" hits Station 56 this Sunday. I do know what White Lion expects to find in their dressing room â€" because, for some strange reason, the band’s list of dressing room requests made its way to my desk this week. Here are a few things White Lion asked for: 36 bottles of non carbonated water (24 iced, 12 room temperature), six cans of Coke Classic, six cans of Coke Zero, 18 bottles of Gatorade (no fruit punch), two cases of cold beer (no light beer, no dark beers), a fresh fruit and veggie tray, two bags of potato chips, a deli tray, a small assortment of candy, two 9 volt batteries and four AA batteries (Duracell only).

[Station 56, 7 p.m., $12.50, 5602 S. Washington St, Tacoma, 253.474.1189]
