Unfortunately, only the last question was answered as Bizarre downed a Corona faster than a nineteen-year-old in Windsor. The rest of the questions were left unanswered and the verdict is still out on D-12.

The concert sounded a lot like listening to Charlie Brown’s teacher in a Peanuts cartoon due to the bad microphones that the groups were using. However, the five members (sometimes six, with Eminem) did carry enough stage presence to make the show somewhat interesting.

D-12’s 65 minute set bounced back and forth between their two albums, “Devil’s Night” and the most current “D-12 World.” Eminem’s rhymes were piped in over the speakers, and oddly enough, were the easiest sounds to comprehend the whole night.

The opener, “S--- Can Happen,” got the crowd of mostly suburbanites going early. Each member walked out as their first rhyme of the night came on, so it took Method Man-esque rapper Proof, and the big man himself, Bizarre, nearly two songs to come out.

These two were clearly the two that could work the crowd over the most. But a lot of times, not bringing someone out until almost 10 minutes into the set can hurt a performance.

The crowd also went insane for “Fight Music” from “Devil’s Night,” and “40 Oz.” from “D-12 World,” which came back to back about midway through the set. At times, D-12’s microphones seemed inaudible due to the loud speakers and strong crowd response.

During the vile radio hit “My Band,” Bizarre brought some laughs to the crowd, when the 350 lbs. (I am taking a guess) rapper walked out without a shirt. It seemed that Proof, who serves as Eminem’s hype man on his tours, seemed to be the one controlling the crowd; while Bizarre brought the laughs. Rappers Swift, Kuniva and Kon Artis proved to be merely the glue in the performance.

D-12 didn’t answer many lingering questions at their show, but they might be interesting to watch in the future, if they can fix their mics.
