The long awaited Guns N’ Roses Album Chinese Democracy is nearly here and there is something to drink in it for you. While I can’t say I am not impressed with free Dr Pepper, I really hope Chinese Democracy is more impressive than getting something for free.
As a long time GnR fan I have always been saddened by how little they sound like they did back in the ‘93 Stadium Tour with Metallica. Axl still sounds great and looks stupid doing the Patience Shimmy, but the rest is too different. Different isn’t necessarily bad, but it just isn’t the same for those of us who remember that Appetite for Destruction was an album title long before it became the motto for George W Bush’s presidency.
Dr Pepper to Make Good on Chinese Democracy Stunt | Listening Post from Wired.com
Earlier this year, soda manufacturer Dr Pepper promised a free soft drink to everyone in America if Guns N’ Roses released its long-awaited Chinese Democracy album before the end of 2008. The offer excluded former GNR members Slash and Buckethead.
Now that Axl and company have set a release date of November 23, Dr Pepper says it will make good on the offer. Those who want to claim a free soda can go to the Dr. Pepper website on November 23, enter some personal information and get a coupon for one 20-ounce drink that should arrive within the following 4 to 6 weeks. They’ll expire in February 2009.
