It Might Get Louder
 

It Might Get Loud is a documentary featuring Jimmy Page, The Edge, and Jack White. Personal interviews, group chats, conversation about the bands, conversations about the writing process - its all there.

If they made a sequel, what three guitarists would you put in the film, and for the love of Christ, put in why you wanted those 3 players to have a conversation. "because their awesome" is open invitation to flame you.

Bonus: Feel free to add in musicians beyond the guitar with these few criteria...

1. They must play some instrument. Part of the idea is the creation of music with an instrument so if you're going to choose a non-guitarist, it really needs to be someone who uses their instrument in a unique fashion compared to the other two players.

2. They must have some unifying feature. In the original they all played rock music. the three you pick do not have to play the same genre, but should have some unifying feature that makes it coherent.

I'll start traditional. 3 artists that were huge in the 80's.

Bruce Springsteen, Kirk Hammett, Prince.

This movie would blow my ****ign mind. I cannot imagine what each would take from the other with regard to how they push one another, the aesthetic principles they look for when they write, and how they wrote some of their best hits.

Omar Rodriguez Lopez, Tom Morello, and Kevin Shields. All of them pioneers in the non traditional way they play the guitar. They all use an intense amount of effects to make some of the most creative music of the past 20 years. The thing I love about them is they don't necessarily stick to just layering effects (well...maybe Kevin Shields does), but they actually study their instrument and interpret it and play it in the best way they can using the effects they have chosen.

I would love to see what they all had to say to each other. Like how they chose to use a certain effect over another...when they decided the track was finished...things of that nature. I think an impromptu jam session at the end would be something worth paying money for.

Personally, I would find a documentary about bassists of the alternative 80s to be very interesting. I guess the three I would choose would be Mike Watt, Flea, and Les Claypool, although that's open for debate. They helped elevate the bass into much more of a lead instrument, which in turned had loads of influence on future generations of musicians. Each has an interesting story to tell and I personally have never heard them tell it...

You might sub one of them out for Kim Deal too, I'll bet she'd give you some mustard on 4 strings.

Yeah, possibly sub her in for one of Watts or Flea since they are so similar...

Damn I loved that Documentary, Jack seemed so out of place.

I would put Alexi Laiho, Carlos Santana, and Slash.

Three big name guitarists, however I think it would be interesting due to them all playing completly different types of music. I would love to see what they could do in a Jam Session.

have you ever actually heard Carlos Santana... in interviews... spacing out hard... and pretentious... about... some... new age... philosophy... and how... music... is supposed... to be?


if anyone they should have gotten Josh Homme instead of The Edge.

Well, that would just make it that much more interesting.

You still can't say he isn't a great damn guitarist.

aside from the fact that Carlos Santana has basically been playing the exact same thing since about 1971.

:nono: I'm a fan of most of his work. He does have pieces that sound like a alternate of his other work, and has released nothing new, but every time I hear him play, it''s amazing. I don't know, I like him.
