Clean Raul,
The greatest advantage was when women would hold Michu in their lap's, or pick him up for a picture. He was the undisputed King of "copping a feel". One opening night's we bowed as the master passed on his way back to the dressing room. I wonder how many people, upon getting their pictures developed, looked and said, "what the hell!!!"

nini finkelstein told my all-time favorite michu story -- and how she taught him to mind his manners around her -- but it would be inappropriate to post. to this day, every time michu's name comes up i still laugh out loud.
