Angry Bitch session?

Wasn't the original topic who would we WANT to see unplugged, not who we wouldn't?
But before I get to that, isn't the claim that music is these days is worse a copout? How much cheesy pap was there back in the fifties, sixties, and seventies, and as long as there's been music? That kind of crap has always been around. Watch Amadeus.
That being said, I would love to see Eminem unplugged. Why? Listen to how he says what he does. Do you know anyone else in the pop world who is as openly self-examining and self-critical? Whether you like his creations, let's not call them straight music, he forces an opinion. Can anyone tell me how a montage was originally created and what the purpose of it was?
Besides, Eminem's original claim to fame is supposed to be his freestyle skills. Who wouldn't want to hear someone that's supposed to be the best at what they do?
