Plan B Takes Early Exit Supporting Eminem
Other | Wednesday 21st August 2013 | Billy
Singer/Rapper Plan B was far from impressed with the 80,000 crowd at Eminem's Reading Festival warm up show at Slane Castle on Saturday night branding the Irish gig goers as "the tamest fucking crowd of my life".
Ben Drew, as he is formally known, was clearly far from happy with the crowds reaction to the song ‘Pieces’ telling them afterwards “You should feel ashamed. No fucking mosh pit. Not one fucking mosh pit.”
After failing to lift the lifeless horde with shouts of “Slane, are you with me?” and “Come on you cunts” the tone had evidently been set on this short lived show. The singer then asked officials at the side of the stage how long he had left to play only to reply “10 minutes? 10 minutes…Well we’re only gonna play one more song cause we don’t really wanna be here.”
Fortunately for headliner Eminem the crowd soon perked up a bit as the US rap idol opened with his new track ‘Survival’ which he unveiled last week. Shady then went on to perform hits such as ‘Without Me’, ‘Stan’ and ‘Love The Way You Lie’ before closing with ‘Lose Yourself’. Eminem is due to perform at both Reading and Leeds festivals this weekend.
