Guitar sensation John Mayer has planned out a month-long U.S. tour, to begin Jan. 25 in Jacksonvile, Fla., and run through a Feb. 28 appearance at

New York's Madison Square Garden. The artist will be out behind his new Columbia album release, "Continuum," which has already sold almost 700,000

copies in the U.S. alone since its release last month, according to Nielsen SoundScan.

Before the tour, the talented singer/songwriter is booked to perform Nov. 21 on the American Music Awards and two days later on the Thanksgiving
