CAMROSE, Alberta – Kevin Costner declares he wishes to come again to Alberta to hold up those pretentious by the crumple of an outdoor stage during a severe thunderstorm that killed one person and injured dozens more at a country music festival.
“In actuality we are so depressing about the loss of life and injury that occurred on a day that carried so much promise, but turned so wicked so quickly," the actor said in a statement Monday.
"We hope to return to Alberta in the future to help with the healing."
Costner and his band, Modern West, were the next band scheduled to take the stage when a terrifying windstorm swept through the site of the Big Valley Jamboree.
The strong blast of wind collapsed the main stage so quickly that organizers did not have time to warn thousands of fans crowded around it.
