Axl Rose Responds To Dr. Pepper

It's good to see that Axl has a good attitude now that he's getting up there in age.  Unlike when he wanted to fight Kurt Cobain at the MTV Video Awards for joking around with him.  

But, he released a statement regarding the Dr. Pepper Chinese Democracy Challenge.  Not only did he acknowledge that Buckethead still has some songs credited to him on the new album.  But, he even said he'd share his DP with him.  Awwww, what an old softy.  However, Slash has to fend for himself.

Free Dr. Pepper!

I loves me some Dr. Pepper. And the good people over at DP have announced that if Chinese Democracy does not come out by the end of 2008; every man woman and child a FREE Dr. Pepper.

"It took a little patience to perfect Dr Pepper's special mix of 23 ingredients, which our fans have come to know and love," Dr Pepper director of marketing Jaxie Alt says. "So we completely understand and empathize with Axl's quest for perfection -- 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."

But, I'm sure Axl is ready to release the album right now. But, probably not. So, you can pretty much count on getting a free one. (Billboard)
