Kevin Costner Honky-Tonks in Nashville
Originally posted 11/11/2008 12:30PM
He may be an Oscar-winning actor and director, but Kevin Costner and his country rock band Modern West put in their time in Nashville the way so many new country acts do: by playing a honky-tonk on the city's Lower Broadway.
Costner and his band played a private show for about 200 people Monday night at the Stage as he joked to the crowd that he realized many of them were drawn by his Hollywood fame, not his musical chops.
"I know there's a curiosity factor," he said. "I get it. And I'm just as surprised to see you!'

Kevin Costner Goes Country with a New Album
Originally posted 09/29/2008 07:45PM
Kevin Costner will fulfill a longtime dream in November when he releases his first album with his country-rock band, Modern West.
The actor, who told PEOPLE that his unlikely turn as a lead singer elicited double-takes when the band played a NASCAR event in July, has been playing music with some of his band mates for nearly 20 years.
An early incarnation of the band (once called Roving Boy) stalled when Costner's movie career took off, but in the past few years he's devoted more time to music. "I remember looking out into the crowd, thinking, 'This just feels right,' " Costner, 53, said in a statement about an early performance with Modern West.

Kevin Costner Opens Up About Past Fear of Settling Down
Originally posted 07/18/2008 11:45AM
He may play hardened heroes like Eliot Ness onscreen, but in real life, Kevin Costner's biggest crisis came about because of his fear – of babies. Having another one, that is.
"For years, fear kept me from marrying Christine," Costner says of his wife of four years. "Christine wanted a child, but I was afraid I couldn't be an effective father."
In an interview with Parade, out Sunday, the 53-year-old Swing Vote star says the painful divorce from his first wife left him unprepared to ever love again.
