Jessie Ware, Mikky Ekko: Irving Plaza, November 4, $29.40
U.K. pop sensation Jessie Ware's live show just keeps getting better and better. Her upcoming gig at Irving Plaza should be a great chance for new fans to see her in person. Supporting Ware is Mikky Ekko, who has become quite a big name in his own right. This is a double bill you shouldn't miss.

Justin Timberlake: Barclays Center, November 6, $54.50
JT returns to NYC still riding high on his massive 20/20 Experience successes. Timberlake's performance at the MTV VMAs was the best part of the night. Imagine what he can do when given two hours. We couldn't be more excited.
