Tired of a world in which Americans idolize wannabe singers and musicals about high schoolers pass as rock 'n 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.
In an unprecedented show of solidarity with Axl, everyone in America, except former GN'R 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.
"It took a little patience to perfect Dr Pepper's special mix of 23 ingredients, which our fans have come to know and love," said Jaxie Alt, director of marketing for Dr Pepper. "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."
Show your support for Axl and get on the nightrain of encouragement at this location.

It's too early to be an April Fool's Day joke.
(...And I'll give away a free beer if The Planet Piss Project is ever released....to anyone who gets the reference.)
Also...a short blurb from Lucas on Indy...
George Lucas says his new Indiana Jones is "just a movie."

Someone at Dr. Pepper must be a big Gn'R fan is my guess!
