Dave Carroll's revenge on United Airlines

United Airlines broke Dave's guitar. They wouldn't help him. He wrote a song about it:

OMG, what great revenge!

I read a story where United has called him back about a resolution now.

I love that!

Those baggage  loading "extras" were hilarious.

Why couldn't the airline just admit they were responsible in the first place?

It takes a while to find "the" guitar that feels right in your hands.  I would sue for emotional distress and loss of companionship in addition to the special damages.

to quote Doctor Evil..."one million dollars"  biggrin

I've heard that Taylor Guitars are some of the best.

I like Taylors alot...

There is a guitar made here in Sparta, Wisconsin...McPherson Acoustic Guitars.
Amy Grant plays one, I believe Vince Gill also.  They are WAY out of my price range...6000-$10,000 bucks.

Taylors would be my second choice...they go for around 3000 bucks.

Ask Riggs to tell you the story of the time we went to Sparta to check out the McPherson Guitar Factory.  He has been banned from not just the factory, but the town of Sparta.

Once the whole CDC sound hole hoax ran its course we all had a good laugh.

I don't know much about acoustic guitars, but we had a semi-pro musician at our church once and our praise team leader was really liking that guy's Taylor.

Whats the "CDC sound hole" ??

CDC is the Center for Disease Control

McPherson guitars have an off center elliptical shaped sound hole.  It helps their sound projection.

Well the day Riggs and I went to see the guitar shop/factory Riggs sent me a bogus MSNBC web page about the CDC Closing down the Factory for "Toxic" sound holes.

HE had me going for a short bit.  BAstage!

Sometimes you just have to go back to what you know works.

They say you never see the toxic sound hole with your name on it....probably because most of us arent that flexible!

Ah c'mon. You'd be lost if we never brought up Uranus.

You can't fool me.
