Madonna continues to pile multiple shows onto her October and November North American tour schedule as tickets for her upcoming roadtrip fly off the shelves. So far, the pop icon--whose tour kicks off Oct. 4 in East Rutherford, NJ--has logged multi-night sellouts in Toronto, Montreal, New York, Boston and Vancouver. Tickets for her November shows, which stretch from California to Florida, go on sale beginning this weekend.

The Eagles , who kicked off the North American leg of their "Long Road Out of Eden World Tour" earlier this month, have added several more dates to their itinerary. The Rock and Roll Hall of Famers have tacked on a third show at New York City's Madison Square Garden to finish out this month, after which they'll skip into July with a newly added gig in Philadelphia and a three-night stand in Toronto. The loose-knit tour now stretches into September, at which time the group will close things out with two nights in Chicago.

Marc Cohn has booked another round of US dates to support "Join the Parade," his first new studio set in nearly a decade.
The singer/songwriter is scheduled to return to the road June 7, starting with a festival performance in Elmer, NJ, and, from there, he'll play more than 30 dates across the US through late September.

Alejandro Escovedo will hit the road this summer behind his forthcoming album "Real Animal," which is due in stores June 24. The run kicks off June 7 in Lawrence, KS, with an appearance at the Wakarusa Music Festival, and dates so far stretch into late August.
