Film Tour in Maine Equals Cornell '77?

I missed the Fly Fishing Film Tour in NYC, read that in Indiana it was quite lame, and thought until now that the place to catch it had to be Austin, TX. But I may have to reconsider.

On Thursday, June 4th the Tour is rolling through Portland, ME.  Flies and Fins is hosting it, with striper guide Eric Wallace as the point man, helped in no small part by Alex the Wildman.

College Kid Ben, The Roughfisher, I’m sure Marshall DeMott, and all the cool kids will be there.

I’d drive up myself if it wasn’t six hours away and I wasn’t leaving to go tarpon fishing the next day.

The Portland crowd has less than a month to work it out and see if it can top the Austin opening promo. “Keep Portland Weird” is just copying at this point.

De Niro, Pacino, Scorsese, Crump…All the heavy hitters will be at the Ultra in New York City for the Fly Fishing Film Tour. Opening night is Monday March 17th, St. Patrick’s Day, so the whole thing could devolve into an Irish throwdown.

Me? I’m heading to the show on the 18th. My starstruck, sycophantic personal assistant made all the arrangements.
