Kevin Costner and Modern West

Kevin Costner has a band.



If you saw the movie Swing Vote, you saw and heard them singing "Backyard." I saw them play last night in Foxboro, Mass. at the Showcase Live near Patriot Place.

The band was kicking off a tour that was supposed to start in New Jersey. But Kevin finished up shooting a movie in Boston and his two daughters Annie (who works with Sheila) and Lily were in town, so he asked the band to start the tour early in Foxboro.

Lily joined Kevin on stage for the first time to sing a song. She was great. Here's a picture.

Annie arranged for free tickets for me and Sheila and several other friends from Providence. We got to go in the VIP entrance. I, of course, felt like we were doing something wrong the whole time.

I really liked the music. Sheila bought me the CD after the show. Some fun country stuff. The band was great to watch, mostly because they were clearly having a good time.
