Eminem & Jay-Z In Detroit

As the first half of Eminem and Jay-Z's four night "Home & Home Tour" wrapped up last night here in Detroit, we here at The Metro Times Music Blog bring you some photos from the groundbreaking hip-hop showcase. Fans flocked to the city from all over the globe, Norway, Miami and Afghanistan...and that was just a 10 person section in the front row. To say that it was a major event downtown would be an understatement.
After being away for a bit, Eminem is seemingly back and recharged, as he almost stomped a hole through the stage jumping ferociously through the two nights. It was a look of childlike satisfaction painted on his face whenever he took a step back to gaze out at the pulsing crowd. That look of pure joy slapped across his face looking onto his hometown.
The list of guest appearances started to look like a laundry list of hip-hop as Dr. Dre, the remaining members of D12, Young Jeezy, 50 Cent, Lloyd Banks, Detroit's own Trick Trick and opening acts B.O.B & Liz Rodriguez all found their way onstage in the star studded two-nights. The stadium was abuzz with celebrities and athletes, my personal highlight was sighting none other than motherfuckin' Dave Coulier. Bam! Gaga, you ain't got shit on Coulier.
The duo finishes up next week in New York City with two nights at Yankee Stadium on September 13th and 14th. Head down after the jump for some for pictures from Eminem and Jay-Z historic concerts at Comerica Park.

Police trying to move people standing outside on Montcalm looking into Comerica Park...they didn't have much luck as people shut out from the show peered in through every side of the Comerica Park gates.
