    I’m sooooooooooooooo excited about this film!

    I love all 3 guitarists, and they make a really intriguing trio. Putting Page and Jack White together makes sense, since Jack White’s style is very influenced by Page. But throwing Edge into the mix is just perverse in the best way possible. What a great idea for a movie!

    I saw all the comments on the EHX Facebook page. It really annoys me to hear all the guys who say, “so and so doesn’t deserve to be in this film.” These are 3 of the most influential guitarists of their generations, regardless if these guys like their music. Oh well, I can respect people’s right to their opinions without actually respecting their opinions.

    “I wanted to see a movie that captured the essence of why people are so fanatic about the guitar. While there have been a lot of performance documentaries, this one is really about the relationship between these three men and their instruments. We tried to show what drives the artists, what got them passionate as players, what made them pick up the guitar in the first place.” – Thomas Tull, producer

    I can’t say I’m too excited about the three icons in a room concept (not because of who they are, but because it seems very reality TV to me) but reading this quote gives me some hope about the movie.

    I’ve made stuff like that before, but it never sounded that good. I think his design was better though

    There was a really great record by a guy named “Eddie one String Jones” on Takoma if you’re looking for more one string blues playing.

    Google search came up w/ this to listen to: ) http://www.myspace.com/jeffrogerandthesunshineband
