What Local Celebs are Saying About MRD

“Maine Roller Derby is here and it's the real deal. The ladies are serious about their sport, as are their fans. Live rock music before and during the bouts, snappy announcers, bleachers full of supporters and athletes with the proper balance of talent and spunk make a Maine Roller Derby event as exciting as just about any local sports event. It really is more than a sport though, it's a total full-on entertainment experience. You have to see if for yourself.”
Mark Curdo, WCYY radio

“If PJ Harvey, Madonna, Patti Smith and The Bride of Kill Bill could procreate together, their spawn would parallel the vicious and tough-as-nails ladies of Maine Roller Derby. You don't want to meet the MRD ladies in a dark alley late at night and if you do you better have a case of PBR in one hand and a whole lot of Kiss Ass in the other.”
-Lauren Wayne, Northern New England Marketing and Promotions Director, LiveNation
