Some of the nicest people you will ever meet in this area of Texas!
It's good to see Pepe still kicking it, my parents were migrant works with him and his family, and I went to school with Joe & Rosie, salt of the earth and sweet people. Thank you for featuring him.
First time seeing this video Loved it! Let's keep our music alive From your new friends from New Braunfels TX Darren prieto y sus amigos

And the families are all connected all the way back to the original settlers in the 1700's . Most (families) intermarried many times over.
Que viva la música de conjunto.
Thanks for the little history lesson about conjunto music del Valle!🤠
Loved the video and his life story. Love how passionate he is about texano music and that he is a very grateful man that cares about his family and community. You can see the happiness in him. Great role model.

Mr. Maldonado, a conjunto music legend as my father Mario Montes accordionist of Los Donneños was.

Los Donneños were my Grandpa’s favorite conjunto back in the day! He was lived by a very small town called El Tanque in Nuevo León! 🤠

Believe it or not I am just coming across this bucket list segment and much to my surprise I recognized the picture of the 4 young men. It’s a family pic several of us have. My dad 1st from right and my uncle 3rd from right. Quite cool to see my dad and his brother, but wondering how this picture came into this show as my aunt has the original? Just wondering.
Love those brown fellas
✌️Puro Valle!✌️
The Spanish closed captioning is hilarious... Every other word is wrong... Great video and a great spot in McCallen though. I went once when I used to live in south TX.
I’ve lived on Edinburg for 12 years and I’ve never heard of this place 🤔

cayogator way different than Mexico. This is Tejano. Selena, La mafia, palominos, etc. We all talk Spanglish it’s a culture. That’s what makes the state of Texas the best. We have so many different regions and cultures here
