Believe it or don't believe it. I tend to believe it.
I don't. Someone somewhere had prior knowledge... Or at least, would have had prior knowledge before this officially came from Dr Pepper. They can't just use the Guns N' Roses name to promote the product without consent. A competent legal team would never let them do that, anyway.
And this all happens a day before we get confirmation from the band that they have new management. Things are looking up.
Technically it is a challenge, calling on GNR and it wasn't on their official site before Axl's statement, don't even know if it's on there now and it's not on their soda bottles so they aren't using the name. At least not yet officially.

Exactly, like the person filming would be like, look at this, omg!!!!
You know this reminds me of the Twilight Zone episode with Shatner, there's a man on the wing!!!!!

I don't know, I mean with special effects nowadays but then again, I have no clue how a UFO would fly or look, this is your classic disk shaped UFO.

As per Fernando on HTGTH, GNR had nothing to do with the DP idea, that DP did this all on their own.
Believe it or don't believe it. I tend to believe it.
#475 Re: Guns N' Roses » Axl/GN'R have new management » 971 weeks ago
Now this is good news. The label wanted GNR to get management and now they have it, maybe things are looking up

an email and response from Jacksnazzy @ HTGTH
dear mr. kooluris,
certainly you didn't anticipate with such a huge reaction because of this announcement...
i'm asking myself if the GNR camp was informed by your company about this marketing gag. is this the first step to a big promotion for the upcoming album chinese democracy ?
sincerely,
XXXXXX
answer:
Hey XXXX'¦the gunners camp wasn't in the loop initially, so you can imagine how excited we are to have Axl's support'¦we are fully confident that Chinese Democracy will be out in 2008'¦we can't wait!
C K
So this explains why GNR were surpised. Thanks Neemo!
If CD isn't out this year, DR will have wasted their time. I still don't see it on the official site with the other promotions they have.

Then that means GNR is bullshitting that they are surprised about it then. That's fucked up.
That's marketting.
Why so that it just looks as though it's a real challenge and it's all a plan? I can see that happening.
Although I still remain skepitcal.
