5/12/2009

Nearly 200 laid-off automotive supply workers from across southeast Michigan and northwest Ohio are being invited to a free mini-concert with Detroit rap star Eminem this Friday as he performs for the Jimmy Kimmel Live TV show.

United Auto Workers officials were calling laid-off members inviting them to the concert. The invitation includes Detroit-Los Angeles round-trip airfare, hotel accommodations, and meals, said one worker who received an invitation.
