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

    • Considering how popular of a booking Scooter have been I think they'd go down well
    • I mean I think unless you are camped in a particular bit which apparently you just get no sleep i feel it would be better setup to travel in from a hotel each day and back. Ah there is so many downfalls to it for me, I think the Download main stage area is so much better and that's coming from me. If you're camped in green to go round all the time and out for lidl and even water is stupid!
    • Did you camp or go for a hotel? I looked into it briefly and seems easy enough to get back to Nuremberg.
