My friend said that it was announced on the Today Show that Eminem is coming to Australia for one show only.
Does anyone have any details?
When? Where?

Just out of interest, what instrument can he play? Rather embarassing if he considers himself a musician and can't play any instruments

Uhh yeah.
I'm tired of the "they just rap they're not musicians" crap.

What do you think vocals are? :rolleyes:
Oh ... and Eminem also pens his own music! :o

Don't think he ever has said he's anything other than a rapper.
no doubt it will be either sydney or melbourne which counts me out

I haven't found anything on it on the net.
Even his official site.
Hope it's still true all the same.

Hopefully we Melbournites get another show.
His last show was brilliant, although there were far too many teenage wiggers in attendance.

'Teenage wiggers' are not only Eminem's core audience, they are his target audience. That's why he acts like one. Without them, he would be working at the 7-11.

Disagree. His core audience are teenagers, but not necessarily wiggers. Plenty of genuine African American's seem to buy his records.
BTW I don't see Eminem as a wigger. To me, the definition of a wigger, at least down here, is these middle-class kids who turn up wearing a doo rag, and speaking as if they're fresh out of the Bronx, despite never having even met an African American.

I don't mind Eminem, some of his stuff is quite good. However what annoys me about him is that his voice can irrtate me and it's like the in thing to be an Eminem fan.
He is somewhat overrated, but i do havce some respect for him.
how is he over rated
one of the best lyricists in the world

Did everyone catch his performance on the Grammy's, was amazing, adding The Roots was a nice touch, I thought Eminem and The Roots were really impressive.
saw that cob
that last riff was so awesome
roots sound good

Don't you realise that Teenage Wiggers are trying to be like Eminem? Eminem is just himself, he doesn't put on any act.
F***, some people just can't appreciate talent. I don't give a s*** if you hate rap, but be open minded enough to realise how much skill it takes to produce what Eminem does.
exactly Schmitty, agree with ya totally, i dont like coldplay, as we were talking about in another thread, but they are a very tight band
