The Real Music Series Starts off 2016<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Every year Busch Gardens gets to bring a very popular event to Stanleyville Theater and 2016 is no different. This event is called The Real Music Series. This weekly series traditionally starred singers\/bands that were huge in the 60’s or 70’s. These beloved artists would then perform for us 3 shows daily a week at a time. Like always, the lineup is HUGE this year also. <\/div>\n

Starting Jan 4 – Jan 9 is Ricky Nelson remembered. Featuring the twin sons of Ricky Mathew and Gunnar Nelson. <\/div>\n

Ricky Nelson, who started his young career on the The Adventures of Ozzie and Harriet. He grew so popular as a teen idol on that show that in it’s later years it ended with a song or two by Ricky. Ricky nelson was so popular that in 1958-1959 he had 12 songs on the charts compared to Elvis Presley’s 11. in his career he performed memorable hits suck as Garden Party<\/a>, Hello Mary-Lou<\/a>, I’m Walkin<\/a>, and Poor Little Fool<\/a>. Sadly, we lost Ricky to a plane crash in 1985.<\/div>\n
