There is now a video response: www.youtube.com Full Story: www.davecarrollmusic.com - In the spring of 2008, Sons of Maxwell were traveling to Nebraska for a one-week tour and my Taylor guitar was witnessed being thrown by United Airlines baggage handlers in Chicago. I discovered later that the $3500 guitar was severely damaged. They didnt deny the experience occurred but for nine months the various people I communicated with put the responsibility for dealing with the damage on everyone other than themselves and finally said they would do nothing to compensate me for my loss. So I promised the last person to finally say no to compensation (Ms. Irlweg) that I would write and produce three songs about my experience with United Airlines and make videos for each to be viewed online by anyone in the world. United: Song 1 is the first of those songs. United: Song 2 has been written and video production is underway. United: Song 3 is coming. I promise. Follow me at twitter.com .

UBG#2 -On Tuesday August 5 we reconvened at the field behind the Station 41 fire department in Waverley NS to shoot the second video in the trilogy, United Breaks Guitars Song 2. Once again, everyone volunteered their time and talent to produce an outstanding video; however, Song 2 was a much bigger production than United Breaks Guitars. In addition to the main roles, we had nearly 100 extras in the cast and in order to say everything we wanted to say with the video, we required a broken guitar, an imitation broken guitar, a 40 foot high scissor lift, a limousine (complete with secret service agents), one genuine imitation space capsule, a space suit, a tuba, 3 suits of German Lederhosen, a canoe, one white panel van and a woman willing to wear tights and a big dollar sign.

Taylor Guitars Responds to "United Breaks Guitars"


Bob Taylor lends his support to Dave Carroll and guitar players everywhere. Taylor has had an artist relationship with Dave for several years now. In 2006, our owners magazine, Wood&Steel, reviewed Daves CD, Sunday Morning. As weve had an ongoing relationship, we have made the offer to replace and/or further repair his damaged 710ce. As a Taylor artist, weve offered Dave our support, a choice of a new guitar and to re-repair the damaged 710ce. Dave and his bandmate Julian made the trip to the Taylor factory in July and have met many of our staff. Well also be running a story on Daves experiences in the fall issue of Wood&Steel.

United Breaks Guitars - Northwest Breaks Dulcimers (Song Only)


[Short Version: Song Only - a remix of the tune can be found here tinyurl.com ] On June 14th, 2009 - Northwest Airlines baggage handlers damaged Bing's Folkcraft double-neck mountain dulcimer on flight 2363 from Detroit, MI to Ft. Wayne, IN. Many people requested that Bing write a song about the situation, much like Tom Paxton did in his tune "Thank You Republic Airlines." When Dave Carroll released the video for "United Breaks Guitars", Bing saw an opportunity for even more awareness in the area of baggage handling guidelines for airlines, not to mention perhaps an opportunity to have Northwest finally hear his story out and pay for the damages inflicted by their ground crew. "Only A Northwest Song" was written and recorded on Friday, July 10th with the video following later that night.

Dish Network & Century Link Complaints - Fraud - Scam - Rip Off - Thiefs - Customer. Serv. Jerks!


Ripped off: Century Link and Dish Network are trying to steal $204.61 from me by billing me for services I did not use, after a contract ended. They claim I owe them a pro-rated fee for the extra time it took to "Port" my home phone to another provider. The Scam, Lie, and theft is that they are charging me for a delay that was caused when one of their employees arbitrarily reversed my cancellation of services, and they are billing me for the delay. NOT LEGAL. DISH Network for their part are billing me for an HD upgrade Installation (through Century Link) after canceling my bundled Dish services. They back-billed me on the old canceled contract for a service that was included in the NEW HD For Life Contract I signed with them. HD For Life includes: Free Installation, upgrade HD DVR's and 3 months Free HBO/Showtime are included when you sign a 2 year contract and sign up for auto billing....which I did. If you have similar problems, watch the Video and send me an email. Both of these Scumbags demand payment from me knowing full well that the facts support that I owe them nothing.

United Breaks Guitars - Strategy considered


United Breaks Guitars by Dave Carroll is the ultimate customer NON-service payback. Ever been knocked back on an insurance claim? Or refused warranty? For most of us, we persist for a while and then give up. Not Dave Carroll. He was so angry, and reminiscent of that brilliant 1976 film Network, with Aussie actor Peter Finch, he decided to do something about it. And something creative at that. A Viral payback campaign using his own skills as a musician, to write three songs, produce them and also produce a professional video and post it to YouTube. Brilliant! This video is a quick look at the strategy Dave Carroll has used to make a statement against United Airlines and to promote his music and his band. It look at how he has leveraged the viral capacity by utilysing YouTube and Twitter to get his PR message out fast. www.lancescoular.com

United Breaks Guitars


This is a great example of the power of modern communications. I just discovered this video via another legal website that I use for research and study. The video is now almost 3 years old and has had more than 11 million hits. And it's still online and still receiving comments. I am also a million mile + flier with United Airlines, and have become more disenchanted with them all the time. They refuse to refund two $35 charges to my wife's credit card for premium seating which she should have received complimentary as a premium flier. But beyond that, we'll compare UA's response to a recent incident I had with Apple. Actually, there's no comparison! So many lessons to be learned from this. We'll discuss on The Michael Brown Show on NewsRadio 850KOA from Denver, Colorado.
