That got me wondering about K-lite and vaguely remembering news about Little David. I’m sad that he, Henry and K-lite as it was in the 90s had passed away. I used to listen Sunday afternoons to your radio show. It’s like being late for a funeral and deaths you didn’t know about.

Happy that people remember Henry and Adel. We spent many Sunday afternoons shooting the breeze on K-Lite. Quark was with NU-107, where I had my Monday morning talk show.

Was very saddened to learn of Little David’s passing. I immediately went to this blog to check you thoughts on Mr. Gabot & was again saddened to learn that Henry has also passed.

I did not know them personally but for me, listening to Twisted on a Sunday & Nightlite were also inextricable with the late 90’s & early 2000’s. I felt like I got to hang out with you & your merry band of friends (btw you didn’t mention Quark, lol) on Twisted. I also got to know Little David, Monice & The Blade as they dispensed advice on Nightlite for 3 hours every Wednesday on midnight.

Little David & Henry seemed like great people. I enjoyed listening to them. To all of you. I am sorry to learn of their passing.

Naalala ko bigla nung launching ng Twisted V, my friend John and I were wondering why there were only five people in Powerbooks Arnaiz. You explained later on that people thought the launch was in Powerbooks Megamall. John and I had a blast, our only regret was we should have gotten some eclairs!
