"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."

Montreal Finale

Had two shows on Saturday night, one good, and one great. First show's crowd was kinda stiff, and really made me work for it. That would be, of course, the only show the booker caught all week. C'est la vie! Second show was outstanding. Joey Elias dropped in to do a guest spot, and Ryan Murphy, Jeff O'Neil, and Heidi Foss rocked as well...in fact, Heidi may be the tightest writer I ever met, and yes, that's including Brian Kiley. Nobody wanted to play, so it was back to the condo, where I had some pad thai and packed up. I ended up stealing "Ventriloquism for Dummies," a memoir by comedian comic John Wing, and an absolutely terrific read. Great insight into being a comic, and a real good look at what made 80's comedy tick.

Then it was just a short 6 hour bus ride home, an hour-long ordeal putting Jude to bed, and then blissful, blissful unconsciousness until this morning, where I find myself back at the day gig, and the soul-sucking begins again.
