The Playhouse at Waterville Station plans to host Johnny Ater and Brendan Eyre’s Hard Tellin’, Not Knowin’ Comedy Tour at 7:30 p.m. Saturday at 17 Railroad Square, Waterville.

Ater is a lifelong local and a funny, down-home comedian who offers up hilarious and honest stories about life, family, relationships, work and his colorful local friends, which he brings to life on stage for all to meet.

Ater is not a bitter, self-hating comic; he’s vulnerable and embraces his uncool persona, which can make you embrace your own at the same time.

Eyre is a New York-based stand-up comic known for a laid-back, relatable style that mixes observational material with personal stories.

Tickets cost $25; theplayhouse.me.

Dropkick Murphys

Portland’s State Theatre will host Dropkick Murphys with The Aggrolites and Haywire at 7 p.m. Monday, Feb. 9, at State Theatre, 609 Congress St., Portland.

The Dropkick Murphys have created the kind of music that’s meant to be chanted at last call, in packed arenas, and during the fourth quarter, third period, or ninth inning of a comeback rally.

Its celebrated discography includes four consecutive Billboard top 10 album debuts (“Turn Up That Dial,” “11 Short Stories Of Pain & Glory,” “Signed and Sealed in Blood,” “Going Out In Style”).

Dropkick Murphys’ new album For The People rises to its moment: an expression of humanity at a time of relentless dehumanization, a promise of hope in an era fueled by fear-mongering, a declaration of solidarity in an age of disunion, a defiant rebuttal to the charlatans and demagogues who seek to divide us for their own power and profit.

Tickets cost $54.50 in advance or $60 day of show; statetheatreportland.com.
