It Might Get Loud Contest - Winnipeg, MB

Long & McQuade and Winnipeg Cinematheque have five double passes to catch the screening of Davis Guggenheim's It Might Get Loud - and we want YOU to win them!

It Might Get Loud is the definitive MUST SEE film for anyone who has ever picked up the electric or acoustic  guitar.

The film is an affectionate documentary by Davis Guggenheim (director of An Inconvenient Truth) featuring three master electric guitarists: Jimmy Page of Led Zeppelin, The Edge of U2, and Jack White of The White Stripes. Page talks about rebelling against the sticky 1960s pop sound, White rhapsodizes about his love for the rawness of the great bluesman Son House, and The Edge uncovers the original four-track rehearsals of "Where the Streets Have No Name." Each man has his own distinctive style, and yet when they jam together it sounds like the most natural thing in the world.

Marketed as a guitar summit between these three guitar greats, It Might Get Loud features superb  guitar playing, rare early footage of Page’s and Jack White’s beginnings and lots of great material with The White Stripes, Led Zeppelin, and U2.  The film is worth the admission alone just to watch Jimmy Page showing Jack White and The Edge how to play Whole Lotta Love.
