 The photo on the right was taken on the set of Cold Case at some point during the production of the show’s 4th season. To celebrate reaching the milestone the cast apparently gave 200 custom-made Epiphone guitars to the crew. Exactly when this happened is not clear but it was published on the Epiphone website in February of 2007. That photo and a close-up of the guitar are in the Gallery. The image popped up in a search for references to Kathryn and guitars, based on a vague memory of Kathryn being pictured with one.
This was a nice chance to look back at an event not previously dealt with on KM UK, and post the photo, but it is actually a digression from the real point of this post. I get distracted by the pretty pictures 
Echoes And Dust, a London-based music news and review site which specialises in a “particular dark corner of Indiedom”, has today (7th Feb 2014) published an interview by Andrew Rawlinson with guitarist Monte Pittman. I have to plead ignorance of such things but in the guitar world Monte is a bit of big deal. He’s probably best known for writing, performing and touring with Madonna after meeting her through her (then) husband Guy Ritchie (not to be confused with yours truly ). They met when Monte taught Guy to play guitar.
In the interview Andrew asks Monte about his famous third student and if he’s ever taught anyone else famous:
Monte Pittman: His assistant, Nathan, got my number and let up lessons for “his boss”. When I left for the first Madonna tour I did, I had 55 students in circulation. I taught Kathryn Morris who later went on to star in the show “Cold Case”. I taught Catherine Keener and Dermot Mulroney. I taught Brad Pitt. Those are a few that immediately come to mind because they were so cool to me. I gave Dido a guitar lesson once.
Insert your own joke about a second one being key
The phrase “later went on to star in… CC” tells us something about the timing but not much. Could it have been for her short (and cut shorter) role in the Spielberg movie AI?
Monte recently released a new solo album called The Power Of Three.
You can read the whole article on the Echoes And Dust website here.
 Kathryn looked dressed for winter back in February of 2005. Appropriately enough because it was winter!
 I know I could do with a bit of warming up myself, it’s been pretty cold here in England the past few weeks. And who better than Kathryn as she looks pretty hot here. Or just pretty. And hot 😉
In the previous post we saw that Kathryn had escaped Los Angeles and headed to the southern hemisphere at this time of year in 2008. Our way-back machine has to work even harder this time to reach 2005 for this one. Feb 10th, 2005, to be precise.
 A party was held to celebrate the launch of a book called Intent To Live by the renowned acting coach Larry Moss. Apparently, everybody who is anybody in Hollywood has been taught or helped by Mr Moss at some stage in their career. We don’t know actually know if Kathryn is amongst them but her presence at this event quite early in her career would suggest she is. Oops, I’d forgotten this: the official KM website does actually that Kathryn trained with Larry for 8 years. Of course, the same “About” text contains numerous errors…
You can see more about Larry Moss and his work on his own website here.
3 small photos of Kathryn attending the Intent To Live book party are now available in the KM UK the Gallery.
 Yes, I know, it doesn’t quite live up to billing 
Let’s get the list out the way right now. Left to right we have: Summer Glau and Thomas Dekker (Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles), Ed Westwick (Gossip Girl), Zachary Levi and Yvonne Strahovski (Chuck), Kathryn, and Jensen Ackles (Supernatural). Only one of those shows is still going today.
Nostalgia time. The beginning of 2008 was the time of the writers strike in Hollywood. TV and movie production was widely shut down. With the “talent” not able to work a bunch of them were shipped off to Australia by Warner Bros. to promote their shows in the Australasia markets, not for the other reason.
On the 12th of Feb 2008 the stars took a break from interviews at the Icebergs Dining Room & Bar on the south-west tip of Bondi Beach in New South Wales, Australia. Apparently it is one of the best “nosheries” in Sydney.
Kathryn spent several days in Sydney doing promotional work for Cold Case. Some great photos from two more events were covered here on KM UK back in September 2010 in an image upgrade.
Photos of Kathryn arriving at Icebergs and the group shot above can now be found in the KM UK the Gallery. Yes Bruce, she is a right bonza Sheila 😉
Thanks to the Summer Glau Wiki for allowing KM UK to have the group photo.
  
 It’s only January and we’re already catching up with the work of the other Cold Case cast members in KM UK’s regular segment I call the CCCC-up.
Lady fighting movie Raze; which stars Zoë Bell (stunt woman on the likes of Grind House), Rachel Nichols (Alias), Sherilyn Fenn (Boxing Helena), and Tracie Thoms (Kat Miller in CC); was released in some theatres and on VOD services (Amazon and iTunes for example) in the USA back on the 10th of January. It may be available in other territories as well. As far as I can tell the UK is not one of them. Amazon UK is showing a DVD release planned for mid-June 2014. Directed by Josh C. Waller (McCanick), and also starring Doug Jones (Pan’s Labyrinth) and Rosario Dawson (Sin City), is about a group of kidnapped women forced to fight each other to the death in order to save their families members. Even in that small collection of names there are lots of links. Rachel was in Resurrecting The Champ with Kathryn. She is also in McCanick by Josh and with Tracie. Rosario was in Rent with Tracie. It’s not what you know… As reported previously, depending on where you are in the world McCanick (Cory Monteith of Glee‘s last work) is either out already on DVD/VOD, or months away. Germany gets a DVD première February. Already on VOD in the USA, the DVD is due in May. When did these things get so complex?
