Legal problems are no festival for Eminem

English festival goers will have to do without Eminem's brand of lyrical satire and verbal assault this year. The controversial rapper will not be able to perform as planned at two large English music festivals due to his recent legal troubles. According to his European label Polydor, "Eminem has had to pull out of scheduled performances at Reading and Leeds later this month," said the label statement. "Eminem does not have permission to leave the U.S. due to forthcoming legal matters." 

Eminem is scheduled to appear in court August 31st in regards to his current legal problems. He faces several felony weapons charges in connection to two incidents last June. (See: antiMUSIC news stories from June)
