Thanks for asking because I had not thought about it in a while, but my memory is coming back to me the more I write, but I think the DJ was the Beastie Boys DJ Mixmaster Mike. And so the ticket to the show the lineup was listed like this
Eminem - headliner
Beatnuts - supporting act
Mixmaster Mike - opener
Thank God the Beatnuts didn’t show because they announced PaceOne would be in their place and I’d known about PaceOne and the Outsiderz and their history with the Fugees and Eminem because I’d checked the backstory on Em—and that was some real, real hardcore hiphop set he put on was so dope.
I wasn’t expecting anything from the DJ but that was worth the price of admission in itself. I’d never seen a DJ do his thing like that before, it was so fucking dope the way he was mixing in loops and underground shit and hits and all the little nuggets and scratches — Mixmaster Mike was a one man wrecking crew

That sounds amazing. Wonder if there’s any footage of this show

I just checked, I didn’t see anything but a listing of shows saying it was May 17th, 1999 and a picture he took with Em, Nathan, and his Mom.
While I’m trying to jog my memory and recall everything I can from the show I’ll continue.
I was actively TRYING to NOT like hiphop and NOT like Eminem at that time. Because girls were even rejecting me at school calling me a wigger and shit like that in that little era after 2pac and before the MMLP blew up. And I was failing in everything in life at the time, like grades, school, career, college, jobs. I still caught girls every now and then because I was a senior and in my prime as far physical looks, and money for nice clothes and stuff like that and free time to chase girls, but I wasn’t getting the top girls in school like I did in the 2pac jr high era of the mid-90’s
So when Eminem was angry the whole show and only performed just 6 songs and then the encore of “As the World Turns” I was leaving the show (by myself of course) and trying to tell myself “okay that’s it. Fucc Eminem, he only did 6 songs really fast and then left and no exclusives or underground tracks”.
I tried listening to Limp Bizkit or even R&B but I could never get into those albums the way I could hiphop. With hiphop I listened to everything not just the shit on the radio.
So I couldn’t give it up, so anyway of course a few hours later I snapped out of it and went back to being Em’s #1 fan again and shit — but I do remember walking out of the arena to my car trying to talk myself out of being a hiphop head and being a fan of Eminem.

As The Workd Turns is one of those songs he never performs anymore. You’re lucky to have seen that live

what countries in africa did you go to? My neighbor now is from the gambia and he’s honestly one of the nicest people i’ve ever met. His family was involved with the government and they all had to leave before they got killed

Yeah that's true. He performed in order (from memory)...
"Just Don't Give A Fuck"
"My Fault"
"Brain Damage"
"Bad Meetz Evil" (maybe)
"Role Model"
"My Name Is"
...then called out to encore so he returned and did...
"As the World Turns"
and I can't remember him doing "Bad Meetz Evil". It would have made sense with Royce being on stage with him and him performing only cuts from SSLP, but I don't remember it, and also don't remember if he peformed "I'm Shady" but it seems there was maybe one extra track I don't remember him peforming
That "Bad Meetz Evil" sound is so vintage 1999 SSLP era and what the emerging underground at that time was doing lyrically was really exciting in those days
