Eminem is currently facing criticism from some fans after the use realistic gun shot sounds during his Bonnaroo Festival performance. Eminem fans were seemingly shaken up by the sound effects believing that they were real. With the Vegas shooting fresh in the minds of the public Em fans thought this could possibly be a state of emergency.
Eminem closed his set performing “Kill You”. A video from the shows fans into the performance which closes with a loud gun shot sound effect that scares Eminem fans. Some scream and duck in horror. After the show, many of those fans jumped on Twitter to express their disgust in the performance using gun shot effects.

Less than a year after Vegas and @Eminem thinks it’s a good idea to blast gun shot sfx onstage at a music festival? Bad call on this headliner @bonnaroo. What happened to Radiate Positivity?

Being at a festival/concert in these current times brings new concerns & fears. Had to leave @Eminem set after 3rd gunshot at @Bonnaroo cuz panic was setting in my section (front pit). Extremely realistic &scary! Would have been good to have a warning before show. #irresponsible
