Steverinoland has just learned (sounds more official this way, don't it?) that Joel Plaskett is confirmed for a July 1st performance during Charlottetown's Festival of Lights.

As released publicly, earlier, The Tragically Hip, Sam Roberts, and Matt Mays & El Torpedo will be playing on June 30th. This still leaves more people for July 1st to be announced, as well as all of July 2nd. The Capital Commission's site makes it sound as if this year will only have 2 shows outside of Canada Day this year, although they still list the festival ending on July 3rd. Maybe they blew their wad on June 30th? We'll have to wait and see. Until then, if I hear anything, you'll know. To paraphrase Ludacris, when I know, you'll know, just like that.
