Bob Marley: Maine Comedy at its Finest


Born in Bangor, Maine, Robert "Bob" Marley's father claims he had no idea that his son shared the same name as a famous singer. Bob graduated from Deering High School in 1985 and went onto to the University of Farmington earning a degree in Community Health. However, the entire time he knew that being a comedian was his dream profession.

Marley first appeared on the TV station, Comedy Central, and also starred in Boondock Saints. His comedy acts center around life in Maine and are expressed in his thick Maine accent. He also talks in his radio show "The World According to Bob," as well he can be heard on Sirius Satellite Radio Channel 103.

In a couple of weeks, Marley will be coming to the University of Maine to put on a show for students as well as the general public. Another stop on his tour included Houlton, Maine, just two hours North on March 14th. Tickets at the University of Maine show are available to students, faculty and staff for $5.00. Come see Bob Marley live Saturday April 11th at 8:oo p.m!
