Eminem?

Is anyone else enjoying the irony of insults and harsh words being thrown around all over the place in a thread about Eminem?

If it is the case, as eFestivals has stated, that Eminem would be unlikely to be invited to Glastonbury because of his questionable lyrics, then I can only conclude that whoever makes these decisions is a class A hypocrite or has just heard others opinions on said lyrics and not bothered to listen for themselves (much like many on here it would appear).

Can you justify that comment?

You are a thicko. I can justify this comment by pointing to your post as evidence.

Care to show me anywhere in those lyrics where it's made clear that they're not what he believes?

Or in an interview, where he's been asked to say one way or another?

Or anywhere?

The point is that there's not one single thing that you can put forwards which can confirm the view you've decided to take. The point is that Eminem has refused to say things are as you claim that they are.

So why is your guess without anything to give that guess any substance the correct guess but Glastonbury's guess where there are things to give that guess substance (via his refusal to condemn his words) the hypocritical one? :P

ummm.... ignoring the homophobia side to things for one minute but there's another reason why eminem shouldn't play glasto... he makes shit kiddy hip hop for 12 year olds! and as for the whole pete townsend thing if you watch the film tommy (or listen to the album) i think its pretty clear that when he was writing it he was drawing on his own experiences of being abused as a child, not an excuse for downloading child pornography i know but i seriously doubt he was ever an abuser himself and the fact that the police investigation didn't lead to a conviction seems to support this

Efestivals is probably one of the most hypocritical forums i have seen.

The amount of forummers who will bend the rules to fit there own argument is quite frankly shocking and it doesn't help when you have neil at the helmet[/color fanning the flames.

You might have a point.

But firstly you'd have to tell me what those rules are that you say are being bent. Can you?

Once you've backed up your statement of (un)truth I'll put you right as to those rules. :P

    • I've come across a few this weekend saying Deftones aren't big enough for Download.   I would recommend b&b hotel hbf the night before....cheap, comfortable and very decent. Within 10 minutes from the station and a tram stop outside to jump on...all travel is free during the festival time as well with a kombi. Lidl is very good and cheap I can't lie....€6 for a chair with carey handle, €20 with a bag too...you can work that out yourself.   If you camp, get up at 5am and go to the queue....literally don't question it as now I know.     The travel wise part is easy when you get the hang of it and I've never had an easier exit from a festival today tbh. We were camped in the turn left section but past the registration and to get water you have to come right out.   Opening up an exit through he camp at least by Friday morning when everyobe is there would be much better but you csnt walk through general if you're green and sonon.   I think the issue for me probably too is I have never taken like a mutliple litre water too, I've always done a 6 pack water from like poundland lol but you definitely need it. I had one shower that was cold lol   Talking of getting into the front, Volbeat was the only easy one, for Maiden and especially Linkin Park if you weren't in the queue for it by at least the last quarter ot Architects you had no hope....it was shocking. I do like orbit to sit down. I had to decide to sack off Within Temptation too or no chance.   Second stage biggest gripe is the faff of walking all the way round when VIP or whatever it is literally get access to each bit. I did read tbh before going people though RIP/Ring was turning too much the wrong way.   Also as a side note, caught some of Limp Bizkit last night too and they are not headliner but any distance at all. Yes they pull a crowd...they would do with LP finished but on the grand scale its a super weak booking. Stop, start for video recordings all the way through a headline set?, 1hr 15 minutes and you can't play for that time. I'm so glad they were not chosen to headline main.   On another thing, if RIP played it right they'll get GC and Avril to sub/second stage headline on the Blink day.   Toilets and cleanliness is a big plus I will say that.    
    • Any of the likes of Keo, Basht. and Cardinals could all fit in here.  Although they’re the sort of bands that could fit many of the stages at Glastonbury 
    • Glasto loves a come back act - how about the Rapture?    
    • Yeah mentioned in the park thread but feel more Woodsies to me
