Simon, kakatingin ko lang sa You Tube kay Carina Afable, her gig with Spanky Rigor last 2008. Di pa rin nagbabago ang itsura niya, younger-looking pa rin siya kahit nadagdagan ang edad niya. I remember her in "Patria Adorada" where she gave a memorable performance bilang isa sa mga madre na na-firing squad ng mga Hapones.

Carina, Norma Ledesma & Linda Magno still group together from time to time and present a show. I've watched them several times here in Vancouver, where Linda Magno resides.

These three are very talented and their performances are absolutely entertaining.
