So do I, just don't like their music ;-)

Actually they aren't although as a frog I'm amazed that foreigners know
so much about something that, essentially, only the French could've ever
appreciated. I'm told that there's still the occasional cabaret petomane
in Paris, but essentially it's a traditional that is disappearing under
the constant stress of synthethised digestive noises...

I admire people who do that too, although I think it's good to force
oneself to inject something different into a song too (just like when I
find a goods lick that plays well I have to force myself not to stick
everywhere in a solo !)
