It Might Get Loud had it’s Los Angeles premiere at the Los Angeles Film Festival today and a bunch of cool people turned up including JJ Abrams, Elisabeth Shue, Jack White, and Jimmy Page.

The documentary looks at electric guitar from the point of view of three significant rock musicians: the Edge (U2), Jimmy Page (Led Zeppelin) and Jack White (The White Stripes).

The involvement of these three really makes this something I’m interested in.  I think that Led Zeppelin are the greatest rock band we’ve ever seen, and The White Stripes and U2 are both bands which continue to shape the musical environment.  I hadn’t even heard of this project before but thinking about it I’m pretty excited to see it.
