Confirmations
I just got a wonderful surprise: Lee Villaire has sent me an e-mail saying she would like to join her bandmates Jay Sharron and Kris Lucander, and play at the 'Fest!
Check out Lee's website for frequently-updated tour dates (both solo and with her band), and as always, her 'full band' shows are posted at the top of the page on Not Lame Minus for your convenience. And keep an eye out for her new cd coming out in March!
If you'd like to check out Lee live before the summer, here are a few upcoming dates:
Things are proceeding as I had hoped, and I could not be more thrilled. Attendees will be able to hear talented musicians from all across New England (and Montreal!) in a relaxed live summer setting that will expose the artists to new fans, and vice-versa.

An Update (More Random Notes)
Good news: Jay is interested in playing! I feel this is a good indicator that Kris will as well (but I will wait for his confirmation before I get too excited). They play together in Lee Villaire's band (Check them out). Heck, maybe I can get them to ask her to come sing too...
I am also going to see which of my musically-inclined friends who do not usually perform in public would like to throw something together for what I am tentatively (and respectfully) calling "Amateur Hour". If anyone is interested please let me know.
I want there to be a true festival vibe, which is why I am considering the balloon launch for the kids, and I am trying to think of other things for them to do (though the lake itself should be the biggest draw for them), like face painting and soap bubbles. I am considering door prizes (everyone gets a ticket, and we draw the prizes throughout the day) as well. All (reasonable) ideas are welcome!
