The Machine: Friday May 10th 7:30-10pm

THE MACHINE performs Pink Floyd, America's top Pink Floyd show, has forged a 30-year reputation for extending the legacy of Pink Floyd, selling out theaters, premier showcase rooms and casinos across North America, Europe and Asia. 

The Machine explores collective improvisation rivaling that of an early 1970's Pink Floyd. Their use of expanded theatrical elements and elaborate stage displays and lighting continues in the spirit of the later Floyd of the 1980's. The band is also known for recreating entire albums as a part of their show, accepting requests from fans, and for taking an A to Z approach in which one song is played for every letter of the alphabet.

Comedian Bob Marley: Saturday May 11th 3pm, 6:30pm & 9pm

Marley’s brand of high energy and off beat observation of everyday life things has captured the minds of fans of all ages including teenagers to grandparents in their 80’s. He has been featured in his own special on Comedy Central, and is one of the few comics to do the complete late- night TV circuit: "The Late Show" with David Letterman, "The Tonight Show" with Jay Leno, "Late Night" with Conan O'Brien and "The Late Late Show" with Craig Ferguson and Craig Kilborn. 

Marley's dedication to always coming up with new material is leading him into his 20th year as a stand up comedian performing over 250 shows a year across Maine, New England and around the country. You don't need to be a 'Maine-iac' to laugh yourself silly at Bob's wicked funny antics. Get your tickets early as all his past shows have sold out in advance!
