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 00 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 …

wow – could one man put an airline out of business? we’re about to find out! good luck, dave!
and if the guitar was in the hard sided case then united should of covered the cost of the damage. if it was in a soft sided case then united has no obligation to cover it when there are hard sided cases he could put it in
Make things right, United!

Heres one for everyone who has had to
deal with yet another rude airline rep!
I can relate. A month ago, they thrashed the hell out of my brand new luggage; looked like a den of lions used it as a scratching post.
hahahaha good for you!!! cool song!
Boycotting United too..
We love the three AMIGOS!
They don’t suck, just a genre you probably don’t like, which is fair enough.
Also, the guitar was in a pretty tough case, one of the better ones actually, thick with double padding. If the people weren’t throwing the guitar around like a toy it wouldn’t of broken. Not like they barely touched it and it broke.
To me, the interesting thing is the democratizing influence of the web. You can basically go over their heads and take you complaint international. I wonder if this will have any long term effect.
Can’t wait for the video to hit itunes! You can make enough to buy a new Taylor. You could set up a link to donate to the cause.
People don’t seem to know that Dave had TWO cases, one hard and one soft, for his guitar. THe hard case was made by Taylor itself.
who’s watching this because of Sports Illustrated ?
i am =]
really good job on the song man, lol and the Mexicans too
omg i lived near one of these guys
Thanks for writing this Dave…you are God’s gift to all of us who have ever tried to argue with customer service reps and gotten the standard “I’m sorry but…” answers. You should make a living as a customer advocate : )
LOL. Lots of haters out there. But it’s true: get stronger cases, or don’t complain. And the rest of their songs do suck. Sad but true.
lol great vid, never flying with united again hahahahahahah
HEY DAVE, HOW ABOUT SOME TABS?
Dean0030 Relax dude . Where’s your videos? I want to see if you suck. Sounds like a little jealousy.
Awesome!! Lovin it!! Great tune man!
I feel your pain.
I for one will now boycott United.
They clearly forgot about the customer in customer service.
Further proof that United is an awful airline!
They also steel stuff out of your luggage.
Poor guy, he’s got duct tape on his guitar. LOL
