Three Imaginary Girls - Guns N Roses

Crocodile Rock- a rainy Thursday afternoon diversion

In celebration of the Croc reopening, for some reason, I spent more time than I probably should have this morning thinking about my favorite songs about reptiles. Please note- "Crocodile Rock" by Elton John was a deliberate omission, both for being obvious and trite and for the fact that I hate that high pitched laaaaaaaa-lalalala. Ugh, it's like a drillbit in my ear canal. Yes, I'm sure this makes me a heathen and perhaps, dare I say, a "Cold Hearted Snake" (ooh, ah, ooh, ahhhhhh...)?

If you want that free Dr. Pepper...

Dr. Pepper is making good on their promise for a free bottle of their soda for every American (save for Slash and Buckethead) because Axl Rose has finally finished his opus Chinese Democracy. Sort of.

New Guns (not a Palin reference)

Finally just got a listen to the new Guns N Roses track - a decade in the making. "Chinese Democracy" is set to release, finally, on November 23. Here's a preview of a track.

Will anyone share their Dr. Pepper with Slash?

It looks like it is finally happening: Chinese Democracy will finally be available in stores.

Just in time for the Olympics we may get 'Chinese Democracy'

Well, on the internet you have to take everything with a 2 ton grain of salt, but NME is reporting that not only is Guns 'N Roses 14 year-in-the-making album Chinese Democracy in the can (as they say) but Axl Rose is getting a reality TV show about the process of making the album.

Now, I, for one, am confused. I would assume that Axl has been diligently working on Chinese Democracy for the last decade and half, spending David Geffen's many millions of dollars, crafting an album that will forever change our view of music. That being said, unless Axl had the incredible foresight to film all of this process since the mid '90s for posterity, what exactly are we going to see? The album is done (supposedly). Will we enjoy Axl rolling in his pile of cash? Will we watch Axl get a celebrity makeover? Will he find love with Flavor Flav?

The real countdown begins, now, I suppose. Will Chinese Democracy become a reality or is it another dream that will not come true in our lifetime. (And how much would I pay to see Axl Rose come running in with his hair extensions and all to the Olympic Stadium in Beijing to light the torch during the opening ceremony? Boycott that? I think not.)

If Axl needed more incentive, now he has it

If Guns N' Roses — in whatever incarnation — can release Chinese Democracy in 2008, Dr. Pepper will give everyone in the U.S. a free soda.

I am one

The song was a nice trip down memory lane... but I never realized how much the guitar work sounds similar to Guns 'N Roses "Welcome to the Jungle." Am I in a pre-coffee deluded state, or do you hear it too?
