I am sad to begin this latest installment of the Eminem.Com newswire with a down note: The Slim Shady European Tour was cut short. Eminem’s throat went out, he came down with a chest infection and needed doctor recommend bed rest for a week. Our apologies go out to all the Slim thirsty fans in Copenahgen, Hamburg and Malmo. We hope to catch all of you next year at the festivals.
On the upside, the European Tour was a great success overall. Peace goes out to all the “punters” that showed up all over to witness the hour long Eminem set, along with openers The High & Mighty. The hypest crowd in Europe award goes out to Glasgow, Scotland! The worst food in Europe award goes out to Chemitz, Germany! The best women award goes out to Stockholm, Sweden! The best after-party award goes out to London, UK for the Polydor UK sponsored Gold party at Astoria! (a lapdance joint)– the Absinthe was flowing like tap lager…) Peace and love to all of you, and check here soon for exclusive pictures, and footage of the London concert and “Still Don’t Give a Fuck” live in Stockholm.
Eminem goes off next week to Los Angeles next weekend to record the video for “Forgot About Dre” from Doctor Dre’s 2001 album. It is in stores now, go cop it.
