According to the Herald Sun, big-name promoter Paul Dainty will announce a slew of Australian stadium tours featuring headliner Eminem sometime soon. Shady will play gigs in Australia from February-March 2014. No exact dates have yet to be confirmed.

Here's another fun fact - concert industry sources claim that Australia's annual Soundwave Festival was "invited to get involved" in negotiations with Eminem's upcoming tour. Apparently, things didn't work out. According to Soundwave boss AJ Maddah:

@PaddianneKiley: "true you tried to get eminem for soundwave?"

AJ @iamnotshouting: "Nope. We were working on a festival w him called Rapture. Didn't work out."

Festival organizers allegedly weren't interested because Shady would rather play big, solo headlining shows.

The last time Shady performed in Australia was 2011 - there was some controversy surrounding the "explicit" rapper, but he was told that if he "behaved" things would go smoothly. And they did.

Eminem is set to perform at Docklands, a suburb of Melbourne, Victoria, Australia.

So, when will Em tour in the States. Stay tuned with Mstars as more info becomes available...
