Geechy Guy

1/3/2018

​Geechy Guy started his career in his hometown of Rochester, MI. Beginning with magic at age 6, then juggling and unicycling at age 12, he settled on standup comedy at the ripe old age of 19. Geech was invited to San Francisco in the late 80’s to compete in the prestigious Comedy Competition there. Finishing in the top 10 out of 500 comics, two years in a row, he headed down to Los Angeles to see what could happen. Shortly after arriving, Geech secured a spot on TV’s “Star Search,” (where he beat Ray Romano among others) and went on to set the record for the most appearances by a comedian. 

Speaking of records, Geech set another one in August ’93 when he told 676 jokes in one hour to land himself a spot in the Guinness Book of World Records. Staying in LA, Geech went on to make over 75 national TV appearances, including three on “The Tonight Show with Jay Leno.” While touring the country as the opening act for the legendary “Righteous Brothers” (200 shows in 4 years), he moved to Las Vegas in 1996 and started to perform there. Three years, over 25 casinos and several cruise ships later, Geech took a yearlong offer to star in a show in Reno, NV (“Nightbeat"). So he, his wife Alta and their two cats Oscar and Emmy (get it?) all headed to “The Biggest Little City in the World.” Buying a home and settling there, Geech was soon asked to star in another show, “The Geechy Guy Happy Hour.” Playing for over three years, the show had successful runs at Harvey’s, Harrah’s Reno, and Circus Circus Reno.  In 2003, the success of the new “Star Search” and the popularity of Ray Romano sparked a renewed interest in Geechy Guy and his career. This led to appearances and mentions on “CBS This Morning,” “Entertainment Tonight,” “Jimmy Kimmel Live” and “Esquire Magazine.”

In 2004, Geech and his wife decided to make a big change and moved to St. Croix in the US Virgin Islands.  There he performed on cruise ships and casinos.   Returning to the mainland in 2006, Geech spent the summer entertaining at the Tommy Bartlett Show in WI.  Then in 2007 he launched the ambitious “Every Station in the Nation” tour.  During the run of the tour, he performed concerts in over 100 cities where “The Bob & Tom Show” is heard on the radio.

2009 marked Geechy Guy’s return to Las Vegas.  He debuted his original, three man comedy play “The Dirty Joke Show”.  The show has gotten rave reviews and is currently playing nightly at Hooters Casino.  In 2011, he made an appearance on “The Late, Late Show” with Craig Ferguson on CBS.   He also made it to the quarter finals on NBC's "America's Got Talent" and was named 2011 Comedian of the Year by Las Vegas Weekly magazine.
