"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."

Stinkbomb

So I haven't posted jack in a while, though I must say, that I think my David Ortiz BPU joke is pretty fucking funny, and if someone doesn't email it to Bill James, I'll do it my own goddamn self.

Last Saturday, at Bambridge's in Chelmsford, I had one of the strangest things I've had happen in 11 years of comedy (pause while I weep over my life choices). Good crowd, though small, great room, the whole nine. About 20 minutes into the show, I start seeing this sort of ripple of distraction wash through the room. As a comic, you can feel it when attention is suddenly not on you anymore, and it really wasn't on me anymore. I looked for waitresses dropping checks, which is usually the culprit, but no dice. People were just suddenly rustling in their chairs and making faces and whispering and then it hit me square in the face: the rankest wave of fecal stench. It smelled like someone pooped on a dead guy, man. And no one knew where it was coming from. The bathrooms were on the other side of the building, and it was way too bad to be a fart. Just this incredible stink. I figured it was just someone taking heckling to a whole new level. After about 5 minutes of me trying to compete with the smell, it just disappeared, and the show went on from there.

What the fuck?
