if Guns N' Roses gets their long-awaited new album out in the year 2008?
From Yahoo's That's Really Week, March 24-31:
"Speaking of unreleased albums, Guns N' Roses' decade-in-the-making Chinese Democracy isn't out yet. That, of course, is hardly news. But this week's GNR news story, while seemingly a hoax of Diddy-ish proportions, is in fact true: The manufacturers of Dr Pepper soda have offered to give every single American citizen a free soft drink if the long-delayed GNR album comes out any time in 2008. This just may be the best instance of soda/pop synergy since 'I'd Like To Buy The World A Coke,' or at least since Suicidal Tendencies begged for 'just a Pepsi' in the punk classic 'Institutionalized.'
But fans of either Guns N' Roses and Dr Pepper shouldn't break out their stereos and/or straws just yet...because, it should be noted, Axl Rose and his many interchangeable hired Guns have been working on various versions of Chinese Democracy since 1994. So if you're really thirsty for a free Pepper, it's probably best to hit the unlimited-refill drink counter at your local fast-food joint instead. And if you're hungering for some GNR, just satisfy your appetite with, well, Appetite For Destruction.
Oh, come on, Axl...wouldn't you like to be a Pepper too? Get that album out already!"
