Occasionally played before or after "Cave" during Origin of Symmetry tour (eg. Saint-Malo Route du Rock 2001 [watch]) and more often during the Black Holes and Revelations tour before "Time Is Running Out", with more improvisation than before (eg. Seattle KeyArena 2007 [watch]). In the beginning of the Black Holes and Revelations tour, it was occasionally played before "Starlight" as well, but in a lower key (eg. Reading 2006 [watch]). On 5th July 2010 it was played as an outro to "Time Is Running Out" at the band´s premiere in the Czech Republic, during Rock For People Festival.

The name is probably due to similarity of its bassline to that of "Jimmy Kane." The main riff is also very similar to one in Jimi Hendrix's "Fire." This piece is listed as "Improv" in the H.A.A.R.P. track list.
