United Breaks Guitars

July 9th, 2009

It seems that back in 2008, a band from Halifax called The Sons of Maxwell were on their way to a set of gigs in Nebraska.  They flew United Airlines out of Halifax through O’Hare where they had to change planes.  While on the ground waiting to deplane, Dave Carroll the lead singer overheard a lady behind him say, “Oh my god, they’re throwing guitars out there!”  Sure enough, he turned just in time to see the bass player’s instrument being tossed.

Dave vowed to try to correct United’s ways.  This video is the first of 3 that he will be writing, shooting and releasing on YouTube.  His full story is available here.

Geocaching TV Show

This episode of Motion from the Live Well network in the US explains Geocaching pretty well…

… as long as you disregard the loooong section with the Jack Jones song in the background.  Wonder if we can get Live Well in Canada anytime soon.  Seems to be a pretty good outdoors channel.
