‘FART ARTISTE’ BLOWS OUT A CHRISTMAS ALBUM



MACCLESFIELD, England (Wireless Flash) – Christmas will be a real gas this year thanks to a self-proclaimed “fart artiste” from England. Paul Oldfield, who performs under the stage name “Mr. Methane,” is expelling the first-ever album of traditional Christmas songs punctuated by the sound of actual farting. The Merry Methane CD contains bottom-burping renditions of “Winter Wonderland,” “Rockin Around the Christmas Tree” and “Jingle Bells.” There’s also a cover of “White Christmas” that should be called “Brown Christmas” since Mr. Methane toots out the melody through his behind. Methane says this CD has a “more natural sound” compared to his others because he put microphones at both ends of his body to capture the grunting and straining noise he makes when performing his rear end rumblings. The CD is available at www.mrmethane.com.
