I just tested this, and it looks like you can only create 1 instance of Geany when specifying a project. Launching Geany from the command line (e.g. geany myproject.geany &) will create a one instance, after which further launches will try to re-use the last instance to load a project, asking you to close the first project before loading the new one. Is this a bug? I can't imagine why anyone would want to only work on one project at a time.
I hate to point to documentation, but I think you are looking for the -i switch:
-i, --new-instance Don't open files in a running instance, force opening a new instance. Only available if Geany was compiled with support for Sockets.
