Keith Alberstadt Entertains Troops In The Middle East

Keith Alberstadt
Nashville native Keith Alberstadt just completed another tour of the Middle East entertaining the troops. He has returned safely and posted the first in a two-part recap of his trip.. which covers Afghanistan, Bahrain, Qatar, UAE, Djibouti, Kuwait, and the aircraft carrier USS Enterprise:
Keith says, “Here’s some geography trivia.. Djibouti, in the horn of Africa, is only 12.5 miles away from the sun. Not only was it miserably hot, but everything was a warning with ominous undertones. Don’t drink the tap water, take malaria pills, turn your boots upside
down at night so spiders don’t get in them. Basically, Djibouti is Fear Factor for germ-a-phobes. I was waiting for Joe Rogan to pop out of a tent with a glass of yellow water and a bag of mosquitoes.”

Hey, folks…
I’m going to be on the air with the Bob and Tom syndicated morning radio show this Thursday morning, April 6. Please listen if you can!
Visit www.bobandtom.com for a list of radio station affiliates, or listen online.
Also, in case you haven’t seen it, visit my website (www.keithcomedy.com) to see a video of me being attacked by a bat while on stage in Macon, GA. It’s crazy.
Also also, if you’re involved with that myspace thing that seems to be taking over the world, you can visit my page at www.myspace.com/keithcomedy
That’s all. Thanks for the continued support!
Keith
