These Kapampangan adaptation of Dos Palikeros were derived from famous English songs.
Tirso, on the side, is a public school teacher, how does he manage to be humorous without using foul words?
“Marami naman po kasing way para mapatawa o mapasaya ang mga audience. Hindi naman kailangan na magmura ka or gumamit ng mga salitang hindi maganda on stage. So, every time na magpe-perform kami we see to it na walang pagmumura sa performance namin. In my case, alu na at public school teacher ako, hindi puwedeng ganun, e. May mga shows kami na nakikita ako ng mga co-teachers ko. Besides, maraming bata ang nakakapanood sayo. So, hindi naman yata magandang example yon para sa mga bata. Kasi mga bata ang tinuturuan ko, tapos maririnig nila akong nagmumura on stage.”
Why Kapampangan songs?
“Yun pa ang gusto namin. Nakapagpatawa kami gamit ang sarili nating wika. Gusto rin kasi naming i-promote ang kapampangan language na hindi na yata nagagamit ng ibang kabataan. madalas kasi ngayon tagalog na sila, e. So, in a way, nai-inspire namin sila ng gamitin pa rin ang sariling wika natin.
The famous Kapampangan comedian established the duo in 2010. Since then, they've been around Pampanga with their comedic acts and hilarious Kapampangan songs.

Robi Domingo on dating non-showbiz girl Maqui Pineda: “Ngayong 2018, pinipili ko mas maging masaya at kiligin.”
Robi admits that he's frequently seeing Maqui, his batchmate at the Ateneo De Manila University
“Matagal na kaming magkakilala. Actually, batchmates kami noong college. Doon kami nag-click kumbaga.”
What's the current situation of his love life?
“Lahat naman tayo may choice sa buhay. I’m dating.”
What's with Maqui that made him so interested in her?
“Whenever I enter in a relationship, hopefully dun na. Hindi naman ako pupunta sa isang relasyon kung maglalaro lang ako. Hindi pa handa, pero hinahanda ang sarili.”
Has he forgotten his long-time girlfriend Gretchen Ho?
“Hahaha! Ang init, ha? Wooo!” he replied laughingly.
“Hindi naman talaga mawawala yung pagkakaibigan. Yung history, siyempre nandun pa rin. Pero yung degree mag-iiba na iyan. How I treat her will be different. Pero yung pakiramdam ko towards her would be the same na pag-care. When it comes to caring, being proud of her, yung paghanga ko sa kanya, ganun pa rin. Kaya hanggang ngayon, she serves as inspiration for work.”

A year after they got married, Rochelle Pangilinan and Arthur Solinap are expecting a baby!
The two are presently vacationing in La Union, where they posted on Instagram the baby's sonogram 17 minutes ago today, August 26, 2018.
Rochelle wrote: “God answers when you least expect it... in HIS perfect time!”
Arthur put out a quite-similar caption, “Answered prayer. Thank you God.”
The dancer-actress mentioned that “In God’s perfect time” was also their wedding hashtag.
She then elaborated, “Sabi namin, kung mabubuntis ako, alam ko na bigay ni God yun. Alam din naman natin na blessing talaga ni Lord yun. Hindi rin naman kami nag-iingat. Hindi rin naman kami gumagamit ng mga contraceptives. Pero kaming dalawa e kung ibibigay niya, ibibigay niya talaga.”
Arthur and Rochelle tied the knot on August 8, 2017, nine years after they became together as a couple.
