It’s a big week for Eminem. Not only does his long-awaited Relapse album (his last album came out five years ago in 2004) finally hit the shelves today, just after his appearance on Family Guy on Sunday, but tonight he’s giving a free concert in his hometown of Detroit.

But you’d better already have your running shoes on. Billboard.com reports that people have been lining up for tickets for this gig since SUNDAY NIGHT, even going so far as camping out in front of selected ticket vendors.

Not to worry if you’re just finding out, though: Jimmy Kimmel Live is supposed to be showing parts of the concert as part of Em’s appearances on that show today and Friday. This is the one he’s flying in out-of-work auto workers for, remember? So you can live vicariously, assuming you’re awake that late (I’m not).

In the meanwhile, you can get your Em fix (probably a poor turn of phrase for the Relapse album) by checking out Devon’s adventures interviewing Slim Shady in Hooking Up with Eminem, or view the weird-ass video for 3 AM.
