Cool Revenge

Enjoy...

Revenge is sweet! . . .

This is so great. Over 7 million people have seen this on youtube.
Lots of bad publicity for United....

Sometimes there is justice

A musician named Dave Carroll recently had difficulty with United
Airlines. United apparently damaged his treasured Taylor guitar
($3500) during a flight. Dave spent over 9 months trying to get
United to pay for damages caused by baggage handlers to his custom
Taylor guitar. During his final exchange with the UnitedCustomer
Relations Manager, he stated that he was left with no choice other
than to create a music video for youtube exposing their lack of
cooperation. The Manager responded : "Good luck with that one, pal".

So he posted a retaliatory video on youtube. The video has
since received over 6.5 million hits. United Airlines contacted
the musician and attempted settlement in exchange for pulling
the video. Naturally his response was: "Good luck with that one,
pal". Taylor Guitars sent the musician 2 new custom guitars
in appreciation for the product recognition from the video that has
lead to a sharp increase in orders.


Here's the video ....I tried to attach this but it said invalid. I paste it to the browser and it works.

Good one, BlueStreak . . .

No mention if this video has helped United's sales?

I doubt I will either, but I would not check my guitar if flying United, either.

I will not choose United if I have a choice either.

Good for Dave. Its great someone had the money & the drive to follow up. Nice to see a big company get a great rammin'. I wouldn't run out & buy the CD either but in think it was great & he should get a standing O for it.
