FARMINGTON — Tickets are still available to see comedian and University of Maine at Farmington alumnus Bob Marley live at 7 p.m. Wednesday, March 9, in Dearborn Gymnasium.

The event is a fundraiser for the UMF baseball and softball teams that are planning spring trips, Marc Meyers, UMF sports information director, said.

Tickets are $15 per person and seating is general admission. Tickets are on sale at the Olsen Student Center during lunchtime, Everyday Music, and online at athletics.umf.maine.edu. Tickets will also be available at the door.

Marley, originally from Maine, began stand-up comedy in his hometown of Portland. He moved to Boston early in his career to gain experience in a city known for spawning comedy all-stars. He now has a weekly radio call-in segment with several radio stations around the country called The World According to Bob.

In September of 2010, Marley set the “Guinness Book of World Records” for Longest Stand-up Comedy Performance by an individual. He shattered the previous record with a 40-hour set, while raising money for the Barbara Bush Children’s Hospital.

He made his first television appearance on “Comedy Central,” and he is now one of the few comics to do the complete late-night circuit, including “Late Show with David Letterman,” “The Tonight Show with Jay Leno” and “Late Night with Conan O’Brien,” “The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson” and “The Late Late Show with Craig Kilborn.”

Marley has also appeared on 100 television shows, including VH1’s “Super Secret Movie Rules,” Comedy Central’s “Premium Blend” and “USO Comedy Tour.” Most recently he had a half-hour special, “Comedy Central Presents Bob Marley.”

Many movie fans will recognize him from his appearance in the “Boondock Saints,” where he co-starred with Willem Dafoe. The highly anticipated sequel, “All Saints Day,” hit theaters across the country last fall.
