Eminem #2 on Gracenote... Before Release

asavage writes "According to this article on news.com last week, Eminem's "The Eminem Show," which was yet to be released, cracked the chart at No. 2. This is the first time an unreleased CD has been number 2 on this list of CD's played in computers." I've pre-ordered my copy and am looking forward to hearing it. But its pretty amazing that Gracenote registers a pirated CD #2 without the benefit of it being for sale yet. Thank god they shut down napster and stopped piracy.

But I thought that Eminem was the duo that used to mime to "Girl you know it's true"?

Now I'm confused.

Strip away the personalty of any entertainer, and you're left with a "B-rate" level instance of that form of entertainment.

Not true, some of the members of Gwar started a side project called The David Broche Experience. While it didn't have the blood, guts and make up that create the personalities in the Gwar, it was still a great show.
