1. Wisin y Yandel
Reggaeton /urban music idols Wisin y Yandel continue ther La Revolucion concert tour with eleven new cities and dates during October.
2. Marc Anthony
Marc Anthony will be performing in Florida, one night only. Last month there was a lot of buzz about Anthony and wife J-Lo persuing their careers independently. I wonder if that means we'll finally get some NEW music from this popular salsero - there hasn't been an album of new music from him since 2004 unless you count the soundtrack from El Cantante - although the popular Hector Lavoe tunes are hardly new.
- Oct. 24: Miami, FL - American Airlines Arena
3. Marco Antonio Solis & Pepe Aguilar
Mexican music fans can still catch this famous duo together as they enter the final month of their three-month tour.
4. Vicente Fernandez
It's my guess that ranchera king Vicente Fernandez performs more concerts each year than any other Latin music artists. The fact that all of these concerts seem to be sold-out only proves how much music fans love to listen to this artist and it also means you need to book early to get a seat.
5. La Quinta Estacion
Spain's La Quinta Estacion just keeps getting hotter, especially with their new album Sin Frenos riding high on the charts. Check out the duet with Marc Anthony currently playing in the Latin Music Theater.

The MTV Awards Latin America have been renamed Los Premios MTV Latinoamerica, but whatever you call them, 2009 marks the eight annual awards show. This year's event will take place in the U.S. in Los Angeles, in Bogota, Colombia as well as in Mexico City and Buenos Aires. Check out the list of nominees for this year's awards.

9. Tito Nieves
Salsa's Tito Nieves has not been performing live as much as he used to so this is a good chance to catch him at the swank, newly built Conga Room.
- Oct. 15: Los Angeles, CA - The Conga Room
10. Laura Pausini
Last year Laura Pausini joined fellow Italian Andrea Bocelli in "Viva Ya!," a song that went on to be nominated for a Latin Grammy as 'Record of the Year.' This year she's garnered still more nominations for music from Primavera Anticipada.
