[edit] Stage presence
Jimmy Urine can be seen wearing an unusual style of clothing. This includes but is not limited to bright pink belts, fairy wings, a tie with a cross imprinted on it with a crucified Jesus, net shirts, tights, and large baggy shorts with the middle cut out causing it to resemble a skirt, sleveless belly shirts, and usually darker skinny jeans. His hair is usually spiked and dyed neon colors, usually pink. A reference to Jimmy's style of dress and fan's imitation of said style can be found in the video "The Urine-Nation", which appears both on YouTube and on the band's DVD Our Pain, Your Gain.
Accompanying his already unusual look, Jimmy generally wears a suit jacket with text painted on the back, examples of the writing would be 'red is for fags', 'cute lead singer' and 'No one is safe'.
Jimmy is well-known for his on-stage antics (some of which can be heard on the album Frankenstein Girls Will Seem Strangely Sexy and the live album Alienating Our Audience). He loves to create controversy at his own shows. He will do anything he can to make his own fans angry or annoyed, such as drinking their beer, stealing their clothes, smoking their cigarettes, stealing their money, insulting their appearance, telling people to throw things at him and throwing their own drinks back at them. His mother often brags about how wonderful her son is to all of her friends.
He claims to have set his pubic hair on fire and subsequently was arrested in Detroit on charges of indescent exposure while on tour with the Insane Clown Posse. He has also ingested his own urine during a performance (as seen while performing the song "Pussy All Night"), and went so far as to allow band member Steve, Righ? a taste (This can be found on a live bootleg titled "Urination" CBGB's 11-04-99") [4] He constantly pokes fun at his band and makes self deprecating comments. In addition to insulting himself, he also frequently shouts insults at his audience, whilst jumping in the crowd himself and shouting back to the other band members.
[edit] Remixes
Jimmy Urine has done remixes for Deep Forest, KoRn & Serart. He has been known to completely restructure the songs he remixes as well as to add his own vocal parts. He also produced the original version of "Revolution" by Aimee Allen.
[edit] Side projects
Before Mindless Self Indulgence, he worked as a soloist, releasing only one album. Urine has also taken on a musical side project, a collaboration with fellow Mindless Self Indulgence guitarist Steve, Righ?. They created a 39 track, 25 minutes, 46 seconds album under the name The Left Rights.
