"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..."

"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."

Recap

Great weekend of shows, if I do say so myself. Matched by an equally great weekend of baseball. So between me and Schilling, chalk up 2 points for pasty Germanic white guys.

Friday night was a showcase spot for a very good-natured muckety-muck at the Comedy Studio, my home club and my albatross. Without question, the best shows I've ever done in my life have been there. I've also slept in the third floor men's room after covering it with puke and the smell of French cigarettes in a flagrant disregard of both personal wellbeing and the municipal code of Cambridge, Massachusetts. Either way, Friday was a good set, and I pretty much did to that crowd what the Sox were doing to the Orioles at the exact same time. PBR and self-contratulation followed.

Saturday was an equally good show, though far more surreal. It was at an extremely fancypants club in Fitchburg, Massachusetts, a town not really known for its pancypantsedness. My agent, who is equal parts dishonest and learning disabled, neglected to mention that the show would be in such a nice location. And this place was nice: converted mansion, private membership, dark suits and evening gowns. And me in workboots, torn jeans, and an OP shirt I found at a rest area.

Yet this estate was in the middle of one of THE sketchiest neighborhoods I've ever seen. While trying to find the club, I passed by literally three instances of cops with guns drawn on motorists, two hookers, and a homeless guy who kept walking in tight little circles, most likely trying to get better reception on his dental work.

So I was feeling underdressed AND in danger at the same time.

Yet the show went very well, despite my rough appearance, and the hoi polloi were quite appreciative. Not so appreciative that they forked over a lot of dough for CDs, but appreciative nonetheless.

Speaking of CDs, you should check out this link, because I bet CD Baby doesn't let me keep it up for very long.
