"On Scatterbrain, McIntire addresses the ups and downs of a working comic's life. The bulk of the album is all laughs -- solid material on everything from having kids to the war on terror, killer stuff from one of Boston's most reliable comedy veterans -- but it's the bonus track, the one labeled "Nagasaki," that's getting the most attention. The nearly half-hour track is nothing short of a complete hell gig..."

Nick Zaino
The Boston Globe

"If Tim set out to reveal more about himself and be vulnerable on his new CD, Scatterbrain, he succeeded. He pulls off the delicate trick of turning inward without losing his persona. He is still The Reverend. Now, rather than pointing the finger at others, he's pointing it at himself. Instead of looking at obscure news stories and making them universal, he takes something universal, the birth of a child, and makes it his...It's smart and fearless. Mr. Hicks, this is Mr. Cosby."

I should not be allowed to listen to the radio unsupervised. I'm sitting here, listening to Radio Paradise via Shoutcast, while doing an excruciatingly mindless task at my day job, bopping along to a catchy little tune, and when I check to see who it is, it's the goddamn Grateful Dead!!! Shit! Now I have to cut off my ears to punish them. One of the fundamental precepts of the universe is that the Grateful Dead blow. Christ, next thing you know I'm going to start dancing like a monkey and smelling like peat moss.

I can clearly not be trusted to make musical decisions without strict oversight. My wife won't let me forget The Avril Lavigne Incident, when I found Sk8r Boi while looking for cuts from the Jackass Soundtrack¹ (yes, I'm 33; yes, this is all quite pathetic), thought it was awesome (and dammit, still do), and since I'm so dense when it comes to pop culture, I raced home to my incredibly hip spouse and announced my new musical find, whereupon she laughed in my face and called both my intelligence and my sexuality into question. I believe the quote was, "You did NOT just say you like Avril Levigne! Get out of my house, you goddamn woman!"

¹Most of the music in Jackass: The Movie is performed by CKY, who do, in fact, rock, no matter what my wife says.
