It seems that despite a 35-song setlist and a special guest appearance from Dr. Dre, Eminem's historic Wembley show last night (11 July) was hampered for many fans and critics by "shocking" sound quality.
Eminem played the first of two nights at Wembley Stadium yesterday, making history as the first rapper ever to headline the venue. Sadly, the experience was reportedly ruined for those towards the back of the huge venue by "shocking" sound quality, which made the show a "complete waste of money" for many fans.
In his review for The Telegraph, Neil McCormick wrote, "Eminem short-changed fans with his atrocious sound system inadequate for Wembley Stadium", adding: "I think everyone who attended has a case for a refund."
It seems many others who were at the gig share his feelings.
@LaskoOfficial @Eminem should beashamed & FIRE his useless Sound Team #EminemWembley Couldn't hear a word, Tons of Complaints #wantmoneyback

@werliverpoolco @Eminem The sound was shocking. Worst I've experienced at Wembley. Gutted is an understatement! Still upset this morning.

Club Wembley have taken to Twitter to assure fans that they are "aware of the sound issues at last night's Eminem concert", and are "waiting for a response on this."
Eminem takes to the Wembley stage again tonight (12 July), so we can only hope the issues will be addressed soon.
