ImageKansas City area native David Cook has been pulled in endless directions since he was announced as the American Idol in May. He's recording a record, touring and doing lots of interviews. All the while, he's started a new relationship with former Idol contestant Kimberly Caldwell.

On Wednesday, Cook wrote a note to fans on his web site. He said he was able to get a day off in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida and he was able to rest and relax a little. That rest and relaxation turned into some serious reflection and a 'Thank you' to his fans.


Cook said he got to see Ben Stiller's new movie "Tropic Thunder." He gave it four out of five stars, but didn't like Tom Cruise's role.

Cook also admitted how difficult it is to fulfill all his new commitments. He wrote "The strain of trying to put everything I have into this tour, on top of the scheduling conflicts that inevitably arise from doing a record while on the road, and not to mention the crazy press commitments, have left me, and all the idols, with an almost humorous non-distinct stare as we enter the home stretch of this tour."

Cook and the rest of the Idols are scheduled to be in Kansas City on August 29 & 30. His album is set to be released in November.

Cook said during his down time, he was able to watch the waves in Florida and think about the road that got him here. " I thought about Omaha, and my brother, Andrew, and the Green Mile, and the top 12 red carpet event, and the hotel, and the finale, and this tour. "

He ended his note by thanking his fans. "I want to say thank you for the support you guys have shown, but more importantly the understanding you guys have shown to my limitations as I try to meander through this very new lifestyle of actually being acknowledged for doing something I love."

KC concert
I hope David and the rest of the top 10 get some rest and really kick up the energy for our KC shows. I have tickets to Saturday and so I truly hope they can come back out and do even more than on Friday night!!! As a performer, i have done a 38 city tour and have been able to treat each and every one like it was the first! I am sure with their professionalism , they will all be hyped and ready to go! I just cannot wait!!!
