Revenge is a dish best served cold

[Mike Stranks]

When guitar player Dave Carroll travelled to Nebraska for a tour with his band Sons of Maxwell, he witnessed his Taylor guitar being thrown by United Airlines baggage handlers in Chicago.

The guitar was severely damaged and after a lot of communication he was told that United wouldn’t compensate him for his loss.

He promised the last United person he spoke with to make 3 songs and videos about the way United Airlines handles luggage.

Here’s the first video:

Clearly not a man to be messed with!

Thanks for posting this ,Mike, it's had me smiling all day,.and the tune is still going around my head. This could be a way of hitting back at all kinds of beaurocratic nonsense. More power to Dave Carroll's elbow.

Regards, Keith
