"United Breaks Guitars" video
For Dave Carroll of the Canadian band Sons of Maxwell, revenge is a dish best served with a side of music. Carroll claims that baggage handlers for United Airlines broke his guitar on his way from Nova Scotia to Nebraska. And for the past year, he's been trying to get the airline to own up to their mistake and pay for the guitar. But since his efforts have gotten him nowhere, he decided to write a song about the experience titled "United Breaks Guitars" and post a video on YouTube. United might want to replace the guitar now that more than 100-thousand people have watched the video.
