Jello is also notable for his stage presence. While performing live, Jello dances around with no shirt, covered in sweat, and leaps around stage while yelling his lyrics out-of-time. Guitarist East-Bay Ray claims this is a result of an adrenalin rush - Biafra himself blames epilepsy, which causes him to have a seizure on stage. When his live shows are being especially recorded on audio (namely for studio albums), the band play like normal people. Jello originally claimed this has everything to do with his proud conservatism, which is why he scams his audience into buying tickets to see them live, as the audience expect to hear a quality set list (ever since his conversion to libertarianism, he denies ever saying this).
