The story of the RGV’s rich history and culture is not complete without a look back at Mr. “Nano” Ramirez’s massive contributions to the music and entertainment scene in the Valley. He built the most thrilling entertainment venue the area had ever experienced: La Villa Real Events Center.
Major artists like George Strait, Metallica, Selena Quintanilla, Motley Crue, Garth Brooks, Merle Haggard, Waylon Jennings, Megadeth, AC/DC, Linkin Park, Jerry Lee Luis, and Juan Gabriel have all performed at La Villa Real. How did THE VALLEY manage to book such major influential artists at the peak of their careers?? Listen to this week’s episode and get a behind-the-scenes look at the man who made it all happen.
Oh, and get ready for some SELENA QUINTANILLA stories.
