"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

"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."

My Civilized Veneer Crumbles

At 1:21 a.m. this morning, I found myself peeing on a junction box outside a strip club in the middle of an oil refinery in Everett, listening to Tim Kaelin complain, "Goddammit! I wish this place was open. They have the ugliest girls!"

Then we loaded back into his car of indeterminate make and took a long, looping route back to my house. Kaelin turned off the car.

"Got any beer in there?" he asked.

"Nope," I said. "I think I have some Sambuca, though."

"Fuck you," he snarled as he turned the ignition and lit up a Paliament. "You should keep some beer in the house."

Then he was off, and I walked through the back door and heard the gentle whirring of the VCR, and it dawned on me that I was getting home too late to make sure that the TV was turned to the right channel - the channel specified in the very clear instructions my wife had left me - and that instead of Morrissey's performance on the Craig Kilborn show, she was in all likelihood getting an hour of whatever the hell Noggin shows at 12:30 at night.

Morning came too soon, and I have one of those very low-guage beer hangovers, a bona fide head full of zombies. No one in at the day job, thank Christ, so I can plot Kaelin's assassination in peace.
