"United Breaks Guitars" Becomes a Hit on YouTube!

Dave Carroll, a Canadian musician and songwriter, has been making the rounds of the morning talk shows promoting his overnight hit song, "United Breaks Guitars," which was his way of getting back at an airline that damaged a musical instrument valued at over $3000. The song, which appeared on YouTube on Monday, got over 1.3 million hits in the first week, and lifted Dave out of obscurity. At first the airline was indifferent to his plight, but now he has gotten their attention!
