Biography
Frisbie started performing in the 1980s, when he was the owner of the Alley Cat Saloon in Champaign, Illinois, a focal point of the old live music scene at the University of Illinois campus. After selling his nightclub and returning to Chicago, he worked his way up the comedy ladder in clubs like Zanies and the original Chicago Improv. He is often compared to Rodney Dangerfield of which he has said, "I hope they're talking about the energy, not physical appearance -- I happen to think that I look like Robert Redford."
