I got the opportunity to not only see Anvil! The Story of Anvil! for the second time, but also to see a special live performance by the band following the screening. The band was great and the director was so inspiring. It's the first time I will ever hear a crowd of Angelinos give standing ovations and remain enthusiastic throughout the 3 hour event. The director Sacha Gervasi should be incredibly proud of himself as "Lips," the frontman for the band, even said that the British director, "saved his life." Maybe that's true and maybe it isn't but this movie is so special in the simple fact that "Lips," has the most amazing outlook on life and continues to do what he loves, along with fellow bandmate Robb Reiner, no matter the cost.
Being able to see this band in person was special to me because I have so much respect for Robb and "Lips" as they have stayed together for 30+ years through thick and mostly thin times.
