Cowboys & Indians Gets Up-Close and Personal With Kevin Costner

DALLAS, Sept. 2 /PRNewswire/ -- Being an acclaimed actor and an
Oscar-winning filmmaker is no longer enough for Kevin Costner. In the October
issue of Cowboys & Indians, The Premier Magazine of the West, the
multitalented superstar discusses his budding career as lead singer and
songwriter with his Country-rock band Modern West. Costner is eagerly awaiting
the fall release of the group's debut CD. And he's not at all worried about
being perceived as just another movie star who wants to moonlight as a
musician.

"Oh, sure," Costner tells C&I, "I know I'll face that sometimes. But I
haven't faced it yet because I've been too busy performing and writing. I've
played around the world already. By the time people catch up to what I'm
doing, I've already done it. So it's not like I need their endorsement to get
started. And I'm not going to let them make me quit."
In fact, Costner adds, "I've actually written a song about it called '90
Miles an Hour Down the Highway.' I'm already down the highway by the time
those people will choose to do whatever they do."
Costner invites C&I readers to an exclusive visit to his 160-acre Aspen
ranch in the October issue, now on sale at newsstands everywhere. The Colorado
hideaway is one of the homes he shares with Christine, his beautiful wife, and
Cayden, their 1-year-old son. Costner also recently purchased an oceanfront
residence in Santa Barbara, California. "I've never been able to keep horses
at my Aspen ranch," he says, "because of the elevation. But we're going to
have horses in Santa Barbara, where we can ride them down to the beach."
Chuckling, Costner adds: "Of course, Christine is the one who knows more
about actually raising horses. I've only adventured in the West."
