COVERGIRLS: SPITE ON THE SITE HOME PAGE OF KCFREEPRESS.COM


Check out Spite (with our new photo by Ben Pieper) on the home page of KCFreePress.com.

Better yet, come see us at 7pm at KC Crossroads Comedy Saturday night, or next Friday at the Roving Imp at 9pm.

GREAT COACH, GREAT PHOTOS AND TIME TO GET YOUR TICKETS.

So we worked out with Keith Curtis on Monday night. Not only did he participate in the wine-gossip ritual, but he also gave terrific notes and got us thinking about some things in new ways. We're going to love working with him.

Tonight, PBR Light and Grinders Pizza sustained us through a four-hour photo shoot with the absolutely wonderful Ben Pieper. Our makeover stylist, Daryl Forkell, was on hand to make sure we didn't make a big fat fashion faux pas, and Jeff Shumway was there to art direct. The shot above is the first one out (retouched on the spot—because their service is that good).

But even if you'd wanted to, you could not have joined us either night. So we hope you'll come see us Saturday night at 7 at the Fishtank for KC Crossroads Comedy, along with KC Pet Shop and Not a Great Gorilla. Tickets are 6 bucks in advance—get 'em quick. And next Friday the 26th at 9pm, Spite returns to the Roving Imp for a split show with It's Debatable.

Want to see one of the shows free? We'll buy two tickets to either show for the first person to match the tweets to the chick in our contest.

NEW COACH, NEW PHOTOS AND TWO SHOWS.

Monday night is Spite's first rehearsal with our new coach, Keith Curtis. He's a long-time member of Improv-Abilities, makes the serious funny with John Robison in Dictionary Soup, and updates the KC improv blog when he gets the chance. As husband of Erin and father of Zella, we feel like he totally gets the chick thing, too.

Wednesday night, it's time for a photo shoot with Ben Pieper (we're big fans of Four Foodies, his blog with his wife and two friends). We'll have photo art director Jeff Shumway and our makeover stylist Daryl Forkell on hand to make us look good.

Next Saturday night at 7, we're back at the Fishtank for KC Crossroads Comedy, along with KC Pet Shop and Not a Great Gorilla. Tickets are 6 bucks in advance—but get 'em quick, because tickets go fast.

And Friday the 26th at 9pm, Spite returns to the Roving Imp for a split show with It's Debatable.
