I'm gonna need a Xanax before seeing this one - the combo of the Edge, Pagey and Jack White, to me, is just a dream come true. I can't believe Davis Guggenheim got all three of them in a room together, and then got them to JAM. It's like "The Three Tenors" of Rock and Roll. Cannot wait!

2 of the greatest innovators of rock. page from the 60's & 70's, no one was more diverse or imaginative. not many guitarists can switch between riff based songs to country/folk finger pickin' like page. jack white in my opinion has picked up where jimmy left off, i see a big hole in the 80's as far as innovation. steve vai or randy rhodes maybe? i guess frank zappa may encompass 3 decades of mind blowing innovation, way ahead of his time. i don't really subscribe to the edge "style" though, kind of a one trick pony in my humble opinion.

The edge ruins this movie for me. I will still see it out of respect for Jimmy Page and my love of zeppelin, but if they were looking for someone from the 80s, why not slash? i agree with Jim that the edge is a one trick pony that essentially picks the same string over and over again.

i dont think anyone who doesn't like the edge is a real fan of the guitar, jimmy page is my hero, they could put ANY guitarist here and they still would not be better than him, but I still have to admit that when it comes to innovation and writing, edge is fantastic there is no one in the world that sounds like him, he is a unique songwriter that always plays to the song As much as I love Page, there are times where is solos turn into pointless shredding exercises. The Edge always plays what the song needs and while he might not be the most technically impressive he sure knows how to put passion into his work. Are there other guys they could have put? of course, but i think they have a good team of great guitarists here, i cannot wait for this movie.By the wait I think Jack White may be a bit overrated, I love the racontuers and deadweather but the white stripes leave me a bit unimpressed

ah, the great guitarist debate. thats they beautiful thing about music, no right or wrong answer when it comes to taste. back in the day when i was cool,(or i thought so) i was asked to learn new years day and sunday bloody sunday. when i couldn't manufacture enough echo to pull it off properly, i kinda lost interrest. edge just aint my thing. hes is perfect for u2, no one elses style would work. but page? one of my favorite things about him is his ability to convey emotion thru his solos and chord structures. to me songs like the wanton song, ten years gone, stairway....hell i could go on and on, no i am just redundant but i think you feel me on this one. i am still pumped about this movie. would i rather see slash? hell yeah!

I just got back from seeing this! All I can say is that if you are any kind of classic rock fan or fan of the guitar, you HAVE to see this movie. Jimmy Page is in fine form - and you can tell he really relished making this movie. Its also really interesting to see the story of Jack White and his love affair with the guitar. And The Edge? Wow. That guy has some serious effects... go check it out while its still out!

I'm going to have to wait until it is released on DVD. It is playing in theaters nowhere near me. That really bites. :(
