    The Eminem Show (IMO) is the best album ive ever heard from start too finish...Every Song on there at least a 7/10 again IMO.

    I completely agree. I much prefer his serious stuff too his piss takes. Don't get me wrong, Superman and songs like that are decent, I personally thought Relapse was a bit of a shambles, the accents were ridiculous, although some of the material was decent.

    Relapse, Encore and Recovery all better than Infinite?

    Well obviously I didn't make any money off Inifinite but it's definitely better than the others. It's some of Eminem's best work. It's totally different to most of the music that has made him famous though. Even at that it deserves better recognition than last place out of his 7 albums.

    Just didnt take to it at all


  • Registered Users Posts: 338 ✭✭Keith in cork


    Hands down Marshal Mathers LP was his best work and what really kicked it off for him, at least on this side of the pond. When kill you dropped he was a made man.

    Hard to pinpoint a favourite album to be honest eminem show prob most well rounded to be fair and was when he was at his peak of fame

    Not a fan of his latest stuff people say recovery is a great album i sont see it?

    Didn't like Recovery at all at first but grew to actually quite like it


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,390 ✭✭✭Bowlardo


    Who do people expect as supporting acts?

    The support is going to be have to be fairly decent to be honest. half thinking of buying a ticket now but it is really hard to justify that price if it is just him and D12.

    Cypress hill were there the last time in Punchestown and they were good.

    I think the promoters owe the paying public after not turning up the last time.

    Snoop never fails to entertain. throw him on 4 o'clock. he will get the crowd going. don't know who you would get in between though

    Yelawolf, SLaughterhouse, Royce, 50, D12, and Em

    Bizarre and Mr. Porter left D12 last year. Dunno if they'd have the presence on stage with only 3 artists to bash out a few songs.

    Yelawolf and Slaughterhouse could well happen. Not so sure about 50. Maybe he will.

    The majority there would only know 50 from those listed above.

    True, unfortunately. That could be more of a reason for them to support, spreading the name. Rumours of an Eminem - 50 collaboration for an album. Not a fan of the idea personally. Especially if it means 50 would have a big(ger) part of the concert, I don't listen to him often. What would you think of such an album?

    50 is past it for me.

    Em showed with a few tracks on Bad Meets Evil that he can still rap. His recent albums were atrocious really.

    I've moved on from both of them. I wouldn't be interested in it.

    I think Recovery doesn't get enough credit, some good songs on it IMO - No Love, Not afraid, Love the Way you lie, You're Never Over, Space Bound, 25 to Life

    It's nothing to do with the promoters, MCD aren't the reason he cancelled and they have no real say in support, they can just pick one of the supposed 4 that will be there.
    I'd say for support watch who he's playing with at Reading/Leeds,


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,515 ✭✭✭arleitiss


    Would you say Slane Castle VIP area is good place? I mean safe/good view/comfortable?
    I know it's like double price but I am not bothered about price for event like this. + I need a space to park a car somewhere.
    Any idea?


  • Registered Users Posts: 763 ✭✭✭princemuzzy


    he was class at punchestown many moons ago but his latest stuff is awful in my opinion

    id still nearly go but have an awful feeling this could be this years shm

    I think it would be way better to fly to Dublin. As then it's just an hour or two away from Dublin. There is buses/trains as far as I know.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,827 ✭✭✭Prodigious


    Stay in Dublin, you can get the 109 as far as Navan, then Im not sure on the bus from there to slane.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2 Hevt1987
