Born in Khartoum, Sudan, Solomon Georgio moved to the U.S of A at the age of three. Solomon spent most of his childhood in the Raisin and Murder Capitol of the World: Fresno, CA. At the age of fourteen, Solomon’s parents gained some common sense and moved the family to Seattle, WA.
Solomon is the fifth of seven children of two overly religious Ethiopian natives. His interesting upbringing lead him to begin writing at a very young age.
After succesfully offending the angry feminist and politically-correct hippy crowds that generally populate Spoken Word venues, Solomon switched to stand-up comedy. He is now nearly two years in his career and after taking Seattle comedy by storm, Solomon relocated to San Francisco for his future endeavors.

About me: "Intergalactic knockout injecting trivial knowledge and primitive ethics through-out all space and time. Warrior ancestry, aristocrat bred, ghetto raised, and sub-urban dwelling individual waiting for the next revolution."
I'm an up and coming stand-up comedian in the Bay area. I try to maintain a constant level of extraordinary flair and hilarity. I believe strongly in the three C's: Candy, Cartoons, and Chronic Masturbation. I am happy to share my air mattress with you.
Who I'd like to meet: Mouth-breathers, bearers of opposable thumbs, and anyone who can appreciate " The Legend of Buttercock".
Hey Solomon, It was nice seeing you at Bumbershoot.... I moved to facebook and rarely check myspace account, so I get your invites late... I will try to make it out to one of your shows.. Love Lulu

Oh, fuck you, Goddamn it. With your whole "making me miss you" initiative. You are my comedy brother, and while I cannot wait for you to move on to bigger and better, I'm still gonna be bitter for making me miss your ass.
