Stand-up spotlight: Kristin Rand

Wednesday, July 25th, 2012

Meet KRISTIN RAND, no relation to Ayn Rand for those of you that hate her.

Kristin Rand got her start in stand-up in Oklahoma but brought her big voice to the uncomprable Denver comedy scene a little over a year ago. Her brutally honest material, bubbly demeanor and undeniable stage presence have allowed her to perform on many well-respected stages including the Gr, Ladies Laugh In and Grapes of Rad. She’s opened for stars such as Nikki Glaser and Thai Rivera. In addition to stand up, Kristin performs sketch comedy and sets her alarm for 6:03 every morning but rarely wakes at that time.

Laugh Track: How long have you been a stand-up comic?

Kristin: about 5 years. i’ll say i’ve put in real effort for about 8 months sprinkled within those 5 years.

What other comics will you be watching during the festival?

i only watch other female comics.

If you could give yourself advice when you first started out, what would it be?

stop sucking. and start trying. and there is such thing as too many cock jokes.

If your future self ten years from now could give you advice, what would it be?

my future self is just 38 years old and exactly the same train wreck i am now. an adorable, loving train wreck.

Scientology inspired questions. Feel free to go into detail if you need to. Here we go…

a) Do you lie about yourself? constantly, but only to myself, employers, friends, and family. i could give a fuck what strangers think. i’m super honest with them.

b) Do you connect yourself with bad influences? no way. i’m a magnet only for bright sunshiney energy.

c) Should you be punished forever? thats life, isn’t it?

d) Have you ever invented perverted sexual practices? ha! ever heard of the chi-town choo choo? yeah, me either.

e) Is there a past life that you can’t talk about? if you put it into socio-cultural context, i didn’t know owning those slaves was wrong at the time
