Free Dr. Pepper to all, if Axl Rose finishes his masterpiece

Somebody at Dr. Pepper is a big Axl Rose fan and came up with a gimmick for some likely free publicity. The company announced that everyone in America, except estranged GNR bandmates Slash and Buckhead, will receive a free can of Dr. Pepper if Axl releases 17-years-in-the-making album, “Chinese Democracy” in 2008.

A spokesperson for the company said, “It took a little patience for us to perfect Dr Pepper’s special mix of 23 ingredients, so we completely understand and empathize with Axl’s question for the perfect album.”

The company says it wants fans to get Axl to release the album already. Um, good luck with that.
