Just saw him on the Pryor show dvd. He's the first native american stand up i've seen...well shit, one of the few native americans i've seen on tv period. very intriguing. Good looking out by giving him a spot Rich. Does anyone know bout this guy...did he continue with stand up, or make it in any way in the biz? He seemed real talented.

This is what I found....

bingolong,
good looking out...not much there huh. It doesn't mention that he recorded any albums. that's too bad. I would've liked to hear some more of his material.

Charlie Hill, is a funny comic. He started writing for a friend of his 10 years ago on her show. That friend was Rosanne. I haven't talked to Charlie in 11 years. He kept his hair long and wore glasses even if he didn't look cool. When one of his son's was 15yrs. he used to see come to the club to see his dad perform. He'd do his homework at the back of the club, lipsyncing his dad's bits. He told me he hears them all the time. But Charlie never had a web site and he never was too much of a actor in the late 80's and 90's he focused more on being a writer. Any other questions give me a holler

Robbie,
Dude-we know Charlie for a loonnnnnnng ass time and we love him-weed-like anything-too much of a good thing! Charlie gave up!
He aslo had a heart attack a couple years back, so I don't believe he is performing!

Jennifer,
That's a damn shame. He was a funny guy and a good friend. He helped groom me as a comic years ago. His talent will be missed.......next time i see him I'll ask him to super size my drink and fries....just kidding. Many people get day jobs after awhile. I just hope his isn't at a casino.

Robbie,
Aw that's fucked up!!!!

Robbie & Jen,
Thanks for the info. that's too bad. I could tell he was pretty good from that lil bit of time he had on the Pryor show. Do you know if he ever recorded an album?
