I was browsing through Dr. Pepper's web site and went over to their Australia web site. I was horrified to find out Hanson has desecrated my favorite soft drink by tarnishing its image with theirs, but I had to love the wording in the article, originally from http://aust.drpepper.com/news/news.html :

Hanson drink Dr Pepper?

It appears true guys and girls. The most famous little rock and roll family since the Partridge dudes are drinking the nectar of the gods, Dr Pepper. We've not only had various eMails pointing us to this fact but there's been some unverified footage going around from a music video promo showing the guys sucking away.

I've seen a couple of their videos, and I can personally verify that they were indeed sucking away.
