Ultimately.... does it matter?

[eFestivals]

There was also a post with NIN and a load of other made up shit, I've never ever predicted NIN to headline.

blimey, then there is just one possible headliner gazza hasn't named.

As for the rest, he still can't help making it up from his fantasies rather than reference the facts.

Oh dear how sad never mind.

nope ... but seeing as he's said he's going, but is wanting to have a bit of tea and misplaced sympathies before he goes, that's one bit of his bullshit I can easily stamp on.

Well guys, enjoy debating on these forums, I'm done with them now, used to enjoy them but after today, I'm not continuing after the ignorance and arrogance of a particular person on these boars.

Shall just catch up from the back

[neilloggie]

for the last time, Eminem does sing (well, rap) live, he just has a backing track to fill in for whenever he runs out of breath (due to his songs being quite demanding in the rapping department) along with a hype man. a lot of rappers do it. there are even some bands that do it. it's an irrelevant point

[SoLoCo]

Oh dear how sad never mind.

[eFestivals]

Oh the irony.

Nope, just gazza's gross stupidity, same as ever.

Gazza seems to forget that he endlessly mis-represents things I and plenty of others say, so whatever he thinks I might have done wrong he's been doing nothing different for years.

But mostly what he thinks I've done wrong is down to his own stupidity, his poor reading skills and his faked outrage anyway. Look at this....

There was a post dude this afternoon by them that states not one on here had mentioned Eminem, I clearly had,

.... when what I actually said was...

in the many hours before the announcement (efesters knew it was coming long before anyone else) not one person on here suggested him to be playing

... which is of course the indisputable truth.

Gazza did not mention eminem on announcement day until AFTER eminem had been announced.

Meanwhile he was quite happily speculating about who the announcement would be, happily mentioning other acts but not eminem. That's how 'right' he was about eminem - he was so 'right' and sure he was playing he forgot to mention him.

I haven't even said I told you so for this one to be fair lol. Where did genre come from?

Watching this footage, you can see he's not technically miming but you can't really hear anything coming from his mic over the noise from the backing track. It's not on really.

[Yellow_Fellow]

... it's really easy to hear him.

Really? They have toured more extensively worldwide this past decade and headlined more festivals,plus played to far bigger crowds than in the 90's.

The question is would people be more annoyed at him rapping over a backing track or missing out lines while he catches his breath, I know its not ideal in both senses and can see why people dont credit him as a good live artist but surely he has picked a better option than moments of silence

Shinedown are guilty of this aswell and I'm sure a few other bands are not innocent to playing backing tracks behind the vocals

[jump]

Tenacious D found a solution for this..

[Yellow_Fellow]

Hear him or the backing track?

[AcademicPistol]

[jump]

Great work

Wow I know a lot of hip-hop can be a mixed bag live but does Eminem actually do anything?

I'd have slightly more respect if he changed it slightly so he could do it live. It's part of the reason why many people go see live acts, as it's not exactly the same as the record. (I guess you could make an argument, why record it like if he can't do it live to..)

[Jaybles]

Gazza stop being such a sensitive soul. You gonna stop posting over something as small as getting credit for a wild guess? Its not worth getting upset about.

Back to Eminem..

Personally I can't wait, never seen him and am a massive fan. Surprised at people saying he is no good anymore when his last album was one of his best.

Plenty of rappers rap over a backing track. That won't bother me that much. I hope he plays with a live band though, that could make or break it for me.

[AcademicPistol]

Of course he does, miming.

[eFestivals]

he didn't in 2001.

I'd guess it's less likely that he will now.
