I picked this one up as a blind buy because I love The Edge, Jack White and Jimmy Page and I thought it would be awesome to see them jamming together and to hear some of their stories. It has a dts-HD MA track as well, and has gotten some good reviews, but was curious if anyone had seen it and what your thoughts were?

Review that I based my blind buy on:

It Might Get Loud bursts onto Blu-ray with a stellar DTS-HD MA 5.1 lossless soundtrack. A rich and invigorating presentation, the track shines with every strum of the guitar, and while there's not much else here of note, this DTS offering excels where it needs to, and the result is a grade-A listen that ranks with the best of the best of concert Blu-ray discs for its precision and clarity. Guitar riffs, as expected, are exceptionally rich and lifelike, room filling and soul-soothing, whether lighter, less-intense melodies or harder rock numbers. Every note springs to lavish life, and the film's concert scenes in particular represent some of the finest and most naturally immersive listens available. A brief rendition of a part of U2's Where the Streets Have No Name makes for perhaps the film's single finest listen. The music pours into the soundstage with startling clarity and strength, completely engulfing the listener into the concert and delivering a superb, crisp, and heart-stopping presentation that's practically as good as the real thing. The track also delivers a well-balanced yet suitably hefty low end that's tight and precise, not overbearing and loud for the sake of sheer power. Additionally, several outdoor scenes offer slight but palpable atmospherics, and dialogue reproduction is steady and true. It Might Get Loud will thrill both audiophiles and fans of the music and the musicians contained therein with yet another top-flight lossless soundtrack from Sony.

Watched it tonight. It is quite good, though it is more talking and history of each of them than it is music, at least full songs. There's a lot of songs in there, but few in their entirety. The deleted scenes contain some fun "jamming" stuff, and the closing credits has the three playing together. Recommended.

I saw the trailer for this, and really wanted to see it, but no one was playing it. Will definitely pick this up on the weekend.
