vbrad511 Posted July 8, 2009 Report Share Posted July 8, 2009 (edited) The video gets the point accross. Just to poke a little fun.....I chased a couple links and sent the video to customer service at United. Everybody oughta do it. A couple thousand links from potential customers might make 'em ante up Dave's settlement. http://faq.ua2go.com/display/4/kb/atr/inde...amp;r=0.5343253 Not a bad song either...lol "NO TAYLOR GUITARS WERE HARMED IN THE MAKING OF THIS VIDEO" lololol Edited July 8, 2009 by vbrad511 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

psu_Crash Posted July 8, 2009 Report Share Posted July 8, 2009 Good song and a funny video, too bad it's true. I can't think of a better way to get his point across. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edde Posted July 9, 2009 Report Share Posted July 9, 2009 Update: (see howthat works?) United Airlines is now in discussions with Carroll about paying restitution. The company also hopes to use his video as a training tool for employees. "It struck a chord with us," said Robin Urbanski, a spokeswoman with United Airlines. "We are in conversations with (Carroll) to make what happened right and, while we mutually agree this should have been fixed much sooner, his video is excellent. "It provides us with a learning opportunity we can use for training purposes." She said they hope to provide customers with better service. It cost $1,400 to fix the guitar. Although United is now working with Carroll to attempt to resolve the issue, he still plans to come forward with two more videos. "I stopped asking back in November," he said. "I was told it would be the last time we speak, so the option then was to do something else." "I thought I'd have a great time and a Michael Moore moment." he said. Writing three songs was his answer. The first two are light hearted, he said, and so will the third. "I'm challenging myself to write three songs that don't sound anything alike," Carroll said. "The first one is more of a chronology of what happened. The second focuses on particulars of the plight with United, and United has a golden opportunity to determine how Song 3 turns out."

vbrad511 Posted July 9, 2009 Report Share Posted July 9, 2009 Gonna make a training video out of it? That's fine, but he should charge them at least $50,000 for the copyright to it. (given all they've put him through) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PDX87Starion Posted July 9, 2009 Report Share Posted July 9, 2009 Now he has something to write about for the 3rd song. United deserves all the bad publicity they can get, despite whether they pay up. They tell him no way, until it goes public then its "oops, sorry just a misunderstanding here's a new guitar" now shut up... lame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
