    Seriously, that 'band' is funnier than any film Ive ever seen. Axl and his attorneys now vent their anger at Dr. Pepper. :P

    Could be worse, they could be sueing their fans! :pac:

    I mean Guns N'Roses (just Axl) need a sense of humour. Gawd, what's the worst that could happen eh?

    It was stupid from the beginning - they said neither Buckethead nor Slash could get a free Dr.Pepper.

    Turns out Buckethead was the star of the album - really made Dr.Pepper looked dumb.

    I agree, though, Axl and Guns have bigger fish to fry; organising tours, trying to get Buckethead back in the band, new members, some interviews would be nice, don't have to be from Axl, and no, Bumblefoot interviews don't count - even after the album is released they can't speak about it what the ****? Do these guys have no sense of rebellion.

    Sorry but no, do you really want to go back to Use Your Illusion tour days where the band had expanded to between 11-13 members just for the live shows? There's enough members in the band, most of which have been there 8-10 years. Keep it as it is :)

    It's Guns N Roses, not Chumba f*cking Wamba!

    Its quite obvious Axl will find a replacement for Robin Finck. He has his heart set on three guitar players.

    I thought Finck was doing double duty. If he has left, i wouldn't rule out an Izzy comeback.
    Have both founding members in the fold now :D

    Think of it this way, Dr. Pepper attach themselves to GNR by offering the free drink, and then **** it up, making themselves look bad, and by attaching the promotion to Chinese Democracy and grievances about the promotion are sure to include the words "Guns N' Roses" and "Chinese Democracy".
