What a clever way of getting the airlines attention. Youtube knows no bounds it seems.

Catchy tune.

United must have really beat that thing up. The video indicates that the headstock was broken off of the neck, but the guy says it still doesn' play properly even after being fixed. Considering that Taylor guitars have a bolted neck, which is very simple to replace, there must have been significant damage to the body of the instrument.

I think the other lesson to be learned in this example, is that the internet has changed the relationship between consumers and businesses a great deal. These days, a customer can go on an extremely effective "anti-marketing" campaign, without a whole lot of effort.

I also thought the video and the song were great. I would like to hear more from these guys.

As his popularity rises he should thank the airlines for the blunder!

I'm in amazement at how catchy that tune is! I could actually hear that on the radio and not think twice about it!

No doubt that was first class music. It was so good, just for the musics sake, I had to listen to it again.
