Snow Patrol's finding a bit more time to fit in extra dates on its spring tour.

The alt-rock heavyweights added an additional night in New York, a show in Chicago and tacked on three more dates in Canada on its planned trek across North America in March. The tour, the band's second North American tour in less than a year, supports this year's Eyes Open (A&M) (read Aversion's review).
