ANVIL: Footage Of Pennsylvania Signing Session Posted Online

Robert L. Mickles of 360DigitalStudios.com has uploaded high-quality video footage (see below) of ANVIL's January 17 signing session at the Oxford Valley Best Buy in Fairless Hills, Pennsylvania. The band signed copies of the "Anvil! The Story Of Anvil" DVD and "This Is Thirteen" CD. There was also a raffle set up in the store to win an autographed guitar and two pairs of tickets for the show that evening at the Theater of the Living Arts in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

ANVIL's acclaimed documentary, "Anvil! The Story of Anvil", has been named one of 2009's best documentaries by a slew of film critics associations across the continent, including critics in Chicago, San Francisco, Toronto, and Las Vegas, as well as the International Documentary Association, the Online Film Critics Society, and the National Society of Film Critics. It also made the year-end Top 10 lists in publications such as the New York Times, Washington Post, Newsweek, and Village Voice.

ANVIL's "The Anvil Experience" North American tour kicked off on January 7 in Cleveland, Ohio. "The Anvil Experience" concerts were going to open with a screening of the "Anvil! The Story of Anvil" documentary followed by the band playing a live set. However, according to ANVIL's guitarist/vocalist Steve "Lips" Kudlow, "We've been so fortunate with the success of the film and then the DVD, so many people have already seen it, so we've decided that this tour is going to be all about the music, we're just going to play our set, and just ROCK with the fans. 'The Anvil Experience' will be an evening of pure, unadulterated rock'n'roll." Local bands will open the shows.

The 27-date concert tour — the band's first major tour in more than a decade — is in support of "Anvil! The Story of Anvil", as well as the band's latest album, "This Is Thirteen", which one rock critic called ANVIL's "best record in over two decades."
