Billboard’s the Jaded Insider caught up with David Cook at his outdoor mini-concert for Jimmy Kimmel Live on Tuesday night. David spilled a few details about his upcoming college tour:
But we’ve got some good news for fans aching for their own live dose of Cook: He’s heading out on a college tour starting Feb. 13. Following a performance to open the American Idol Experience at Walt Disney World Resort in Orlando on Feb. 12, Cook will hit the road for a month’s worth of dates, starting in Tallahassee, Fla.. The full tour routing should be announced this week, Cook told us after the show.
About the upcoming tour:
We’re gonna do a kind of grassroots thing and hit a lot of colleges. Because I remember going to shows in my college life and feeling like there’s such a cool energy that you don’t find in a regular venue. Like in the ’70s, all these amazing bands were playing college circuits, and I want to get back to that. It’s what I’m really stoked about ‘ not only do I get to go out with four cool guys and have fun, but I get to do what I want to do.
Before David and his band head out to colleges across the USA, they will be traveling to Kuwait for a 2 week USO tour, beginning January 19.
