We Want Eminem As Headliner!

[DeclarationOfWar]

Anyone else who'd love Eminem to headline. I don't think he'd be as contreversial of a booking as Jay-Z was, as Eminem imo is better on so many levels, and his music is directed at all ages. As with Jay-Z it is kind of a select audience. Me and my dad both find Eminem great to listen to and we're both fans, so it shows a realy diversity. Also, Eminem would be a no-nonsense headliner who'd make a show of it. Anyone else want a bit of Eminem? Would love a Stan singalong

Maybe 10 years ago but he is shite now!

[Zacko]

I'd like him, I think Jay-Z is far better personally but Eminem would go down pretty well I'd say. He's headlined Reading before hasn't he?

Not really.

Well to see his music live whether his songs be 10yrs old or not, would be fantastic.

I remember Gay and Lesbians demonstrating outside of his gig in Manchester a few years ago

[DeclarationOfWar]

I mean that he has diluted his good work with so much rubbish in recent years that it would be hard work to sit through an hour and a half to hear a couple of good songs.

But Eminem isn't daft. He's a showman. He'd simply do it in the way Jay-Z did. Get some of his newer stuff on, then bust out the old ones. I ain't complaining.

And the relevance that has to him headlining Glasto has?

[olly!olly!olly!]

Wouldnt mind eminem, preferably not as a headliner though

[Don1]

I would be in favour of Eminem as a headliner.

[DeclarationOfWar]

None at all, apart from I can see similar objections. No need for the partonising tone.

[Jaydog]

I would LOVE to see Eminem headline, I've missed him twice, once in 2000 I went to see 50 Cent at B'ham NEC and he was ment to go on tour with him yet didn't go. The second I brought a ticket to see him but he canceled due to illness! So another chance to see him would be awesome and I think he would be amazing to see at glasto!

Not a patronising tone methinks, simply meerly questioning the statement you posted.

Hmm well yeah i wouldn't mind him somewhere else on the bill, but realistically. For how much it'd cost to book him, and an artist of his calibre, he'd be expected to be headliner.

[Ed209]

As i said. Saw him headline Reading some time ago ...(2001 maybe?) when he was really at his peak. And it was a halfhearted borefest ... and i really liked him back then. He made D12 do all the rapping apart from the final word of each line that he joined in. He then swore a bit and for his party piece swallowed a tic-tac pretending it was an E. Whoopy - f**king - do!

[Rufus Gwertigan]

[haznutuk]

He has made openly homomphobic comments in his lyrics, and that would bring his position as a headliner into question. I can see that the Glastonbury organisers may see that someone that has had demonstrations about their lyrics at their gigs may cause for trouble for them.

[AndyR]

No thanks, rather have somebody else.
