Dr. Pepper is going to give everyone in the U.S. (minus Buckethead and Slash) free Dr. Pepper if G’n’R release “Chinese Democracy” in 2008. Random?
And let me just say that the story about Matt Pinfield pulling over and getting the demo tape Axl threw out his limo in the 90s is true. At least Matt says it is. I had the chance to hang out with Matt one on one a few years ago and I asked him. He said the music on that tape is incredible.
I have a feeling no matter how good or bad this album is, people in general are going to dislike it. When they released “Oh My God” on the “End of Days” soundtrack a few years ago, just about everyone I know who heard it said they thought it was bad. I liked it. “It’s just too different” and “It doesn’t sound like Guns and Roses” is what they said. And that song isn’t even that out there. If “Chinese Democracy” is anywhere near as out there and different from past G’n’R albums as Axl claims, the general public is probably going to hate it – even if it is a masterpiece.
