Eminem has announced details for what is destined to be Detroit's hottest summer show.
Tickets for the rapper's Aug. 12 hometown performance at Comerica Park are $69.50 and will go on sale at 10 a.m. April 23. There's an eight-ticket limit per purchase for the show, which includes hip-hoppers 50 Cent, D12, Lil Jon, G-Unit and Obie Trice.
Continuing:
Seats can be purchased via Ticketmaster outlets or phone-charge line (248-645-6666).
The Friday night August concert will be Eminem's first Detroit appearance since a pair of Ford Field shows in summer 2003, which drew 95,709 fans. Producers are still tinkering with Comerica Park seating arrangements, but they expect that about 40,000 tickets will be available for the outdoor event, which will include a general-admission area in front of the stage. All other seating will be reserved.
The concert's start time will be announced next week.
Insiders say an Aug. 13 show at Comerica will likely be added to the Detroit affair, which closes out Em's five-week Anger Management 3 tour.
