United Breaks Guitars

So … have you heard the story about the guy who flew with United Airlines and while waiting to get off the plane watched his band’s guitars being tossed around by the ground crew ? $1,200 of damage and 9 months later with no compensation he decided to record a song and video about the experience which has since gone viral on the net approaching 6 million views ! And when United finally did offer some money following this debacle he told them to donate it to charity. And if that wasn’t enough the same airline almost lost his baggage on a subsequent trip. Some people just can’t take a hint.

Ahhh the power of music … and youtube ! Well done Dave - dare I say, taking on Goliath and winning.
