*Guitarists Slash and Buckethead Will Not Be Eligible For Free Soda<\/p>\n
PLANO, Texas (March 26, 2008) \u2013 Tired of a world in which Americans idolize wannabe singers and musicals about high schoolers pass as rock \u2018n roll music, Dr Pepper is encouraging (ok, begging) Axl Rose to finally release his 17-year-in-the-making belabored masterpiece, Chinese Democracy, in 2008.<\/p>\n
In an unprecedented show of solidarity with Axl, everyone in America, except estranged GNR guitarists Slash and Buckethead, will receive a free can of Dr Pepper if the album ships some time — anytime! — in 2008. Dr Pepper supports Axl, and fully understands that sometimes you have to make it through the jungle before you get it right.<\/p>\n
“It took a little patience to perfect Dr Pepper\u2019s special mix of 23 ingredients, which our fans have come to know and love,\u201d said Jaxie Alt, director of marketing for Dr Pepper. \u201cSo we completely understand and empathize with Axl’s quest for perfection \u2013 for something more than the average album. We know once it’s released, people will refer to it as “Dr Pepper for the ears” because it will be such a refreshing blend of rich, bold sounds – an instant classic.\u201d<\/p>\n

Press Release from Axl Regarding Dr Pepper<\/p>\n
We are surprised and very happy to have the support of Dr Pepper with our album “Chinese Democracy,” as for us, this came totally out of the blue. If there is any involvement with this promotion by our record company or others, we are unaware of such at this time. And as some of Buckethead’s performances are on our album, I’ll share my Dr Pepper with him.<\/p>\n
Axl Rose<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
Coupons will be available on the Dr Pepper website<\/a> beginning at 12:01 a.m. Sunday, and will be available for 24 hours. The coupons will be good for a free 20 oz. Dr Pepper, and they can be used until Feb. 28. <\/p>\n
As of this typing, the website is unavailable. I’m curious how many more Dr. Peppers are given away than CDs purchased. I for one would rather drink a hot Dr. Pepper than listen to this album.<\/p>\n
