Question for Pittenrich (sp?)

[Byron haugh]

Hello,

Did I read somewhere that you have a video of Bing Lempke tying his extended body flies? I would be very interested in seeing the video.
Could you please contact me?
Thanks,
Byron

I do have the video. It is a VHS tape. I looked into having it transferred to DVD in what ever format, and it's surprisingly cheap. I just have to get off my butt and do it. For that matter I have 3 DVDs of Al Troth tying in Bozeman too. I'm not sure what the copyright deal is on the Al Troth stuff. They are rare. Only a dozen or so copies were ever made. I'll try to track that down. I'd love to be able to offer those for free.

I also have 3 audio tapes made by George Grant, that I bought directly from George 30 years ago. 1978 I think. And once again I'm not sure what the copyright deal is. Thanks for reminding me Byron. I'll try to track it down. The Bing Lempke stuff I am free to distribute. But I need to get the DVD conversion made first.

The other stuff I have to find out about.
Ah. And it's Pittendrigh. Gaelic for "Last of the Druids" by some accounts. Or "Farm on a hill" by others. It depends on whether it derives from druach or dreich I think.

Sandy- I told you I would have transferred it for you before I sent the tape.

Chuck I'm sorry I spaced and held on to it all this time. It's been a busy time for me, last few years. But I did just retire, two months back. And I will have it converted to an internet-friendly format. And make it freely available to everybody. Soon.

[Byron haugh]

If either of you could send it to me, I will pay any costs associated including postage.
Hoping to be able to see it.
I spent some time with him in a bar in Last Chance years ago, but never got to watch him tie!

The video shows him with a persistent, heavy smoker's cough. Maybe that's what did him in. Very creative tier, though.
