''It Might Get Loud'' (1 Viewer)

[Anthem]

Anyone see this brilliant documentary?

It features Jimmy Page, Jack White and The Edge all discussing their love for 'the axe'- what turned them on to it and how it changed their lives.
Three great guitarists all with their own unique spin on the instrument - well worth a look.

Jack White is a bit of a tool in this.

At the start he's asked when driving to meet the other two...
Interviewer
What do you think will happen when you all meet?

Jack White
When we all meet? Probably a fist fight.

Really, Jack? You think 60-whatever year old Jimmy Page and The Edge are just going to decide to fight you?

Jack White is a talented guy, but as a guitarist is way overrated.

I thought it was alright.

The Edge and Jimmy Page came across as really nice guys. Not so much Jack White, but he had the more interesting story IMO. He seemed to loosen up a bit as things went on.

I think watching this movie even though it wasn't the most amazing made me somehow less embarassed to be a guitarist.

Pretty sure he was joking.

I think White mis-judged the tone of the film. He was a bit like Bono, he couldn't "switch off," and had to keep the pretense going that he's more interesting than he was. The part where he's listening to Son House, pretending to be incredibly moved by it, was very contrived. Compare that with Jimmy Page listening to Link Wray with a big smile on his face.

I thought it was good overall, and I was impressed with Edge and Pages natural approach to explaining their style.

How about a sequel? Neil Young, Kevin Sheilds....and....?

Prince, Thurston Moore & Neil Young. Perfect.

 

[Green Goblin]

Tom Morello, Jeff Beck, Josh Homme.

Tom Morello is actually great fun.

They definitely need to make a series out of this.

 

[Goodbye]

Prince, Thurston Moore & Neil Young. Perfect.

Actually, scratch that... Prince, Thurston Moore & ANGUS Young. Perfect.

nah, yer first suggestion wins out. Neil Young's sound is infinitely more appealing and interesting than Angus's.

My thinking is that Thurston & Neil are kinda in the same camp sonically yet the trio needs an elder statesman and Angus is perfect. The trio have to be very different for it to work. Neil & Thurston would gang up on Prince, Angus would level the playing field.

Hard to say. He said it in a way that someone would talk in an interview where they were trying to cultivate some kind of mythology about themselves.

....sound is infinitely more appealing and interesting than Angus's.

more importantly, angus's sound is 50% malcolm. people are too distracted by the sexual appeal of an adult schoolboy.

do you really want Prince talking about guitars though? He'd just be all 'every guitar-line I ever played except for the stuff earlier this morning was rubbish and I don't wanna talk about it, next question!'
