- inactive, on 03/27/2008, -4/+225Who's the insane executive at Dr. Pepper that loves Axl that much?
- JRjJ106, on 03/27/2008, -1/+212There will actually be a democracy in China before this album is released...
- blahtastic, on 03/27/2008, -9/+191Free pop* is the best pop* of all. Come on Axl.
*Replace with your own local soda/pop/coke term. - frogman54, on 03/27/2008, -9/+139I don't trust doctors. I'll have a Mr. Pibb.
- unperfekt, on 03/27/2008, -5/+104If Axl would give up the heroin, afghanistan wouldn't have the narcotics problem it does now.
- neilyn, on 03/27/2008, -1/+93If Slash isn't good enough for a free Dr. Pepper then neither am I!
- DeathJux, on 03/27/2008, -1/+88"...people will refer to it as 'Dr Pepper for the ears' because it will be such a refreshing blend of rich, bold sounds..."
WTF - j1ggy, on 03/27/2008, -9/+96Dugg for not assuming everyone calls it soda.
- ahoy, on 03/27/2008, -2/+73dude didn't even get his degree!
- ttfadia, on 03/27/2008, -0/+68That insane executive is a brilliant marketer. They managed to latch their brand onto one of the most highly anticipated albums at a reasonable cost (assuming not every single American cashes in, and even then it may be justifiable).
- KillPenguin, on 03/27/2008, -6/+69Buckethead deserves a free Dr. Pepper too, damn it!
- bossm4n, on 03/27/2008, -4/+60Come on Axl, be a Pepper.
- geekjustin, on 03/27/2008, -4/+59 "Dr Pepper" not "Dr. Pepper" The period after Dr was removed in the 1950s.
- scsp85, on 03/27/2008, -1/+54Hmmm, it's win win for all of us!
- inactive, on 03/27/2008, -1/+49Free beer for canadians if duke nukem forever is released.
- LoveYouSomeEric, on 03/27/2008, -8/+51Wow, an advertisement for Dr Pepper and Axl Rose masquerading as news. Way to go, CNN.
- jmpeagle, on 03/27/2008, -1/+43dugg for explaing why you dugg
- d0onut, on 03/27/2008, -0/+36So, how do we obtain these free drinks assuming he releases the album?
- djepik, on 03/27/2008, -6/+41You sir, are far too knowledgeable about pop
- cyssero, on 04/18/2009, -0/+33I sure hope there isn't, or I'm going to vomit.
- BobbyMC, on 07/21/2008, -14/+47Pop is a a SOUND, not a title for a type of beverage. Every time I hear it I immediately hate the person saying it. It is SERIOUSLY the most annoying thing in the world to me, and it isn't because I harbor some territorial bias towards another word. The concept of going out your way to mislabel something in the most annoying way possible is just stupid.
It has a name, and it should be obvious. If I want some Dr. Pepper that's what I call it. When I want Mountain Dew, I say LETS GO GET SOME ***** MOUNTAIN DEW.
You know what word I've never seen in any menu for any restaurant chain EVER? Pop. Come to think of it, I haven't seen soda either, because that is just the other half of that uber annoying term. The official term used to refer genericly to a set of carbonated beverages is soft drink, so anyone who says anything other than that or actually CALLS IT BY ITS PROPER NAME can go ***** themselves because no one else will ever want to.
I HATE EVERYTHING. - Spoomeister, on 03/27/2008, -0/+32I just love the "Chinese Democracy" album.
I especially love rockin out to it while playing Duke Nukem Forever. - clarient, on 03/27/2008, -2/+31It must have been terribly frustrating, trying for that PERFECT mix of high-fructose corn syrup, caramel color, phosphoric acid, sodium benzoate, and polyethylene glycol!
- inactive, on 03/27/2008, -0/+27buckethead doesn't need to rehearse. his concerts are his practice sessions.
- powrslave, on 03/27/2008, -5/+31shaddup ya hoser
- ianzu, on 03/27/2008, -0/+23So what they're saying is: "Nobody will be getting free Dr Pepper."
- oblique63, on 03/27/2008, -0/+22are you kidding me? everytime I listen to GnR, I'm always like "man, this would be even better if I had a nice cold Dr Pepper right now"
- npcabral, on 03/27/2008, -4/+24Man.... we better build higher fences! People are gonna be jumping the border to get in on this once in a life time deal!!!!
- 4d669, on 03/27/2008, -3/+23You don't seem to understand. WE DON'T GIVE A ***** ABOUT THE ALBUM, WE WANT TO GET FREE DR PEPPERS FOR LIFE BY USING EVERYONE'S DR PEPPERS. I'm listening to it right now and I'm considering having my ears sown shut.
- kibbets, on 03/27/2008, -3/+23Awhhhh no free Dr Pepper for us Canadians?
- theWrkncacnter, on 03/27/2008, -0/+18I think Axl Rose doesn't like Buckethead after he joined the band for half a year and basically never showed up to any practices.
- cornelje, on 03/27/2008, -6/+23All of you are wrong, its a soft drink.
- dshey, on 03/27/2008, -0/+16He could even release it Reznor/Radiohead style... and make a killing. Then buy us all Peppers!!
- 4040, on 03/27/2008, -1/+17Why are people always eating or drinking something whenever they happen to read a funny Digg comment? Do you think, "Hmm, this one might be funny so I'd better stuff my mouth with food."
- Pillage, on 03/27/2008, -0/+16Why did you have to drop out and start making pop so soon.
(Mitch FTW) - MioTheGreat, on 03/27/2008, -3/+18Weirdos
- cypher35, on 03/27/2008, -2/+17I live in America and I don't think I've ever head someone pronounce roof as "ruf"... maybe on the east coast or something... but then they manage to screw a lot of words up:
Library -> Libary (what happened to the first 'r'?)
Orange -> Arenge (wtf?) - nymphetamine, on 03/27/2008, -0/+14It's just one of the 23 delicious flavors!
- cyssero, on 04/18/2009, -0/+14The Digg effect in this case is Digg's ***** way of truncating URLs. The website is still alive, it's just that Digg ate up the last few letters of the URL. Try this - http://www.gunsnroses.com/news/article.jsp?ymd=200 ...
- geniuslocimusic, on 03/27/2008, -0/+14Well played sir......well played
- DCLutz77, on 03/27/2008, -0/+14I think you just go into the store, and grab as many as you can.
- punkcat, on 03/27/2008, -0/+13on the guns and roses official site Axl says he will share his with Buckethead.
- profchaos155, on 03/27/2008, -0/+13Dr. Pepper and GN'R. The two greatest things ever come together... maybe... probably not... ok It's never going to happen.
- 4d669, on 03/27/2008, -10/+23I'd rather pay for the Dr. Pepper than pay for that album.
- mediaspree, on 03/27/2008, -0/+13My Use your Illusion I and Use Your Illusion II cd's could use a dust off.
- Flyguy1ca, on 03/27/2008, -0/+12Here's Axl's response:

PRESS RELEASE FROM AXL REGARDING DR PEPPER
We are surprised and very happy to have the support of Dr Pepper with our album "Chinese Democracy," as for us, this came totally out of the blue. If there is any involvement with this promotion by our record company or others, we are unaware of such at this time. And as some of Buckethead's performances are on our album, I'll share my Dr Pepper with him.
Axl Rose - dkkicks, on 03/27/2008, -1/+13There is no period in Dr Pepper.
Real fans would know this.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dr_Pepper#Name_format ... - dudetaz2003, on 03/27/2008, -0/+12Try Dublin Dr Pepper
- Langford, on 03/27/2008, -0/+11A free Dr. Pepper? Hey, thats pretty nice.
Of course if they really want to wow folks, they should pass out some Dublin Dr. Pepper, thats the good stuff. - jmpeagle, on 03/27/2008, -0/+10I like how all 3 of your comments are explanations of why you hit the thumbs up or thumbs down on a person's comment
