Our longtime friend Bill in Austin, TX alerted us to this recent video posting as another reminder of why you always want to use your Namba Gear bags & backpacks to carry-on your musical/audio gear and laptop when traveling by air. Here is the story:
“In the spring of 2008, Sons of Maxwell were traveling to Nebraska for a one-week tour and my Taylor guitar was witnessed being thrown by United Airlines baggage handlers in Chicago. I discovered later that the $3500 guitar was severely damaged. They didnt deny the experience occurred but for nine months the various people I communicated with put the responsibility for dealing with the damage on everyone other than themselves and finally said they would do nothing to compensate me for my loss. So I promised the last person to finally say no to compensation (Ms. Irlweg) that I would write and produce three songs about my experience with United Airlines and make videos for each to be viewed online by anyone in the world. United: Song 1 is the first of those songs. United: Song 2 has been written and video production is underway. United: Song 3 is coming. I promise. Follow me at http://twitter.com/DaveCarroll .”

Not sure why, but lately we’ve been getting a few actual “art” suggestions from our friends for our official Namba Gear logo, the ying-yang mask. So, just for fun and in the spirit of Halloween, we thought we would share the submissions on our Facebook page. www.facebook.com/nambagear Check it out.
