Jimmy Valentine (3/04/1968) The 7 khoon maaf ard son of a jackal and Oscar Wilde is a guitarist/singer from Chicago, noted for his work with Sky Saxon. His primary genres are psychedelic rock and acoustic. Jimmy developed his unique guitar style when he was locked in a shed for countless hours by his uncle Phil and his father.Jimmy sold his soul to the devil for a bag of weed when he was 18 years old. He won it back in a smoke off with Satan a few years later. The two have been the best of friends ever since. Jimmy Valentine says " We can't give Peace a chance unless we take a chance on peace." Jimmy is a well known dope fiend and in his own words "I would rather be a hopeless dope fiend than a dopeless hope fiend." Jimmy likes to waste his time trying to make the world a better place. He does silly things like being kind and charitable. When not squandering his vast fortune on various philanthropic ventures, He likes to feast on goat meat with his lover. Jimmy is a Hare Krishna. His spiritual name is Yogasvar. Jimmy will love you and be your friend but he will kick your ass if you get out of hand, and has been known to travel to do so. It has been alleged that he is a hippie drug user and worthless turd. Some think his music is as exciting as an insurance seminar, especially to bromosexuals. While others love and adore him. He sells meth on the side in his lab behind his trailer where he lives with his grandmother. Jimmy Valentine has many illegitimate bastard children from the many groupies and whores he has banged in his wild exploits. One of his bastard children runs a clothing company that makes clothing targeting repressed homosexual bros or Bromos. Valentine's trailer blew up in a methlab accident, so he has moved to the West side of Chicago to work on heroin for a while. After that it's been rumored that he may become a serial killer or a daycare teacher in California.
The Tao of Jimmy Valentine[edit]
You must be able to request and expect the impossible of your self and others. This is the main principal of my way.THE ONLY WAY TO ACCOMPLISH THE SEEMINGLY IMPOSSIBLE IS TO REQUEST THE UTTERLY RIDICULOUS Of yourself and others. Don't be afraid! To guide you I have given three precepts. The first precept is that of pain. Understand your pain. Pain,OUR PAIN MAKES US WHO WE ARE. WE NEED IT TO KEEP Everything in PERSPECTIVE...OUR PAIN TELLS US SOMETHING IS WRONG, AND LETS US KNOW WHAT IT IS...IT IS THEN THE TASK OF THE INDIVIDUAL TO LEARN AND ADAPT ACCORDINGLY.The second precept is the warrior's mind. Defeat your inner warrior to win in life.We each have a warrior within. That warrior is ready to fight life's battles.THE TRUE TEST OF A WARRIOR IS TO awaken and CONQUER THE WARRIOR WITHIN.....THERE ARE TIMES WHEN NO MATTER HOW HARD YOU BEAT SOMEONE DOWN NO LESSON IS LEARNED AND NO PURPOSE IS SERVED OTHER THAN TO VENT YOUR FRUSTRATIONS ON SOMEONE TOO STUPID TO LEARN ANYTHING FROM THEIR BEATING... A TRUE WARRIOR KNOWS HOW MUCH OF A BAD MOTHERFUCKER HE IS AND IS IN NO HURRY TO HAVE TO PROVE IT TO ANYONE BECAUSE HE HAS NOTHING TO PROVE...WHEN OTHERS RESORT TO VIOLENCE WORDS ARE HIS WEAPONS AND HE WINS EVERY TIME. Unless of course someone just absolutely must have their ass kicked. The third precept is recognizing and understanding our cyclic behavior.It's simple, if you do what you've always done then you will be what you have always been.IN ORDER TO MOVE FORWARD...WE MUST FIRST BREAK THE CYCLE...THIS BEING PERHAPS THE TRICKIEST OF ALL THE PRECEPTS...IT IS OUR INDIVIDUAL CYCLIC BEHAVIOR THAT EITHER PROPELS US FORWARD TO SUCCESS OR HOLDS US BACK TO WALLOW IN FAILURE...EACH OF US HAS A RESPONSIBILITY TO OUR SELVES, and to the world, TO BE THE BEST YOU THAT YOU CAN..BREAKING OUR PATTERN BASED BEHAVIOR IS SIMPLE...ABRUPT DISCONTINUATION OF EXISTING negative HABITS...IN ALL REALMS...PHYSICAL,MENTAL, AND EMOTIONAL...IN ORDER TO DO THIS ONE MUST HAVE HIS OR HER OWN PAIN IN PERSPECTIVE...THE SOURCE OF THE PAIN AND THE LESSONS LEARNED FROM IT...WHEN THE PAIN BECOMES A PARTICLE OF WISDOM IT CEASES TO HURT AND THUS FACILITATES THE WARRIOR within BEING ABLE TO CONQUER THE PHYSICAL REALM BY SPIRITUAL AND INTELLECTUAL MEANS AS OPPOSED TO BY FORCE AT WHICH POINT THE CYCLES ARE BROKEN AND THE INDIVIDUAL WILL evolve AND move towards being HAPPY.THE MAIN PRINCIPAL AND THREE PRECEPTS ARE SIMPLE AND MIX WELL WITH ANY RELIGION OR PHILOSOPHY.
Pisces Rising[edit]
In early 2008,Sky Saxon produced Jimmy Valentine's Pisces Rising Album, which is an eclectic blend of psychedelia, hard rock and acoustic sounds. [1][2] Sky played an integral part in the sound and subject matter of this album. Pisces Rising is part of a secret government project. It is interlaced with backmasked messages telling the listener to quit their job grow out their hair and become a hippie. Pisces Rising was recorded during the commercial breaks of American Idol.
Music in Popular Media[edit]
In 2007 five time Olympic Gold medalist Aaron Peirsol used Jimmy Valentine's instrumental song "Brenda" on his instructional DVD titled Aaron Peirsol "Backstroke" on Go Swim.

Jimmy would collect some royalties if he had the cash to join a performing rights group like ASCAP or BMI. Jimmy gets regular air play on a bunch of college radio stations and the kids love him. Only thing is those damn kids are so crafty with the computers they steal his music on line instead of buying it.[3]. [1]

Religious Cult[edit]
Jimmy Valentine is a Minister of Music in the Church of Spritual Humanism and is the leader of the Hoodilidoo sect. Hoodilidoo is a Bhakti Yoga mantra word that Valentine and other Hoodiliites chant. Hoodilidoo is also a music festival where recruits for the Hoodilidoo cult are found. WWJD What would Jimmy Do?? This is the new mantra of the 21st Century. Jimmy Valentine known for his work with Sky Saxon of the Seeds, MaestroPhil Pennington and of course The Atomic Love Explosion has created a new Cult. Asking everyone "What would Jimmy Do????"
Jimmy Replied... "I love you whoever you are." and "We have the power of music when we make music of power." "We can all work together to make the world a better place." "I haven't really changed much, I just hate some things less passionately than I did before." "..we cant give peace a chance until we take a chance on peace." The media is questioning their reasons for ignoring the vastly powerful Cult Leader. "We didn't know. He just appeared out of nowhere and spread his word. People seem to want to listen to what Jimmy says. He talks about peace and true love for each other, I think I love him!" exclaimed Bob Zohan of CNN. Google is suing Wikipedia for not having a page dedicated to Valentine. "The lawsuit is pending. It's a very complicated case." says Judge Harvey Reed of New York.
