Eminem's first major U.S. show in years to stream live online; he'll also unveil new G-Shock watch

DETROIT, MI - If you want to see Eminem's first major U.S. show in years and can't get to New York City on Wednesday, you can still catch it live online.
The G-Shock watches company will broadcast Eminem's performance at its 30th anniversary party - at a secret location - via its website, according to its Facebook page.
A press release about Eminem's role in the 8 p.m. event mentions his "exclusive performance" and a new collaboration with G-Shock for a new timepiece called the GDX6900MNM-1, expected to be released in December.
An excerpt from the press release:
"The GDX6900MNM-1 timepiece, available this December, takes the newly-revamped XL-6900 watch face and personalizes it with Eminem iconology for a watch that is not only ruggedly functional, but also stylishly streetwise."
More from the press release about the new Eminem-style watch:
"An avid watch collector himself, Eminem can be seen wearing G-SHOCK throughout  many of his music videos and performances, making this collaboration a natural expression of mutual respect and appreciation. Being one of the most recognized and accomplished hip-hop artists of our time, this limited edition collaborative watch with Eminem crowns a long history of hip-hop partnerships for G-SHOCK.
"Available in matte black with black dial and black reverse LCD, the GDX6900MNM-1 harkens to Eminem’s darker past in the crumbling city of Detroit, the skyline of which is printed in bold red on the upper watch band. The watch face and band loop sport the reverse “E” from his stylized moniker EMINƎM, while the watch case back and lower watch band are  personalized with an autograph of his alter ego, reading “Shady”.
"This attention-grabbing watch also has the rugged functionality that sets the G-SHOCK brand apart, with Shock Resistance, 200M Water Resistance, Auto LED Super Illuminator, 5 Daily alarms with Flash Alert, 48-City World Time, and Multi-Home settings for  worldwide  touring."
Eminem is expected to release a new album sometime this year.
His Detroit-based hype man Mr. Porter has been dropping some hints about it lately before they head to Europe later this month for five shows.
It's unclear if Eminem could go on a North American tour or do a show in Metro Detroit.
What do you think about the Eminem performance and European tour?
What are your expectations for the new album?
