United Airlines supposedly breaks Dave Carrol's guitar while in route to Omaha, NE. The airline refused to compensate for the damage, so the Sons of Maxwell band decided to fight back with a song.

F those MFers. Guitars are sacred. United, Jesus frowns upon thee.

. . . every guitarist knows you don't check your instrument. Airlines have a long history of acoustic destruction
