If you have any talent you might want to produce a YouTube video like this musician. His precious guitar was broken by United. After getting the usual corporate line of baloney, he produced this video. I think this is brilliant! This is a prime example of using the creativity of the internet to level the playing field!

The internet is the great equalizer!

A friend of mine sent that link to me since my family owns vintage Martin guitars.

A very funny video.

I think that You Tube is the most clever way to protest. He will get more coverage this way, he was not nasty and United would be more than foolish not to pay for repair or buy a new guitar for this former passenger. I wish I were so clever.

Maybe we should all learn this song and on our next United flight, sing the song so that everyone can hear it. It would be great if several passengers would sing it at one time or we could substitute our own United problem and sing it to the same tune.

Very funny. I enjoyed seeing his follow-up explanatory clip also.

Well done! I believe United has admitted that they made a mistake after the clip getting about 50K hits. YouTube - CNN: Man Goes After United Airlines On YouTube [United Breaks Guitars]

Personally, I would not check-in a piece of equipment of that much value. My son has a $700 guitar and he carries it on every time he flies between home and school...
