Monty worked on "The Andromeda Strain"!!!

I finally got a chance to blog this after receiving these photos from the Mooseman himself last month. The acting bug has really taken a bite out of Monty's ass after working six days on this A&E mini-series. The production shot out in Ashcroft, BC and he got to play a paramedic for one day, a photo-double on another, and a National Guardsman for four days. On three separate occasions, Monty used a real M16 machine gun! In one of the scenes, a runaway Humvee crashes the gates and they just open fire. It's good to see the big guy have fun on set. I met him out in Kamloops when we worked on the production of "Iron Road" and I would always comment that he looked like the perfect Irish railway worker. LOL!!! Good on ya, buddy! Also, in one of my previous blog entries, "Chillin' with Fatty and the boys...", I saw Daniel Dae Kim walking around in Kitsilano. He's actually starring in this show, playing a North Korean biological weapons expert. Aaahhh..., it's all coming together now.
