    "Iranian Live Rock" --- that is a new one.

    Those in middle east are terrific traders and businessmen and have been taking advantage of us ignorant westerners for only about a 1000 years...:confused:

    Only reference I could find...

    Iranian rock (موسیقی راک ایرانی) is a form of rock music that is largely produced in Europe and Tehran's underground circles, and is rising to challenge "Tehrangeles pop", which has dominated the popular music genre of Iran for decades.

    Iranian rock is almost entirely in Persian language. There are however musicians of Iranian descent both inside and outside Iran that produce their rock music in languages such as English or German. One example is Dario Amini whose hit "Just 4 today" was frequently heard on Iranian rock radiostations in 2006.[citation needed]

    Iranian rock has its roots in American rock, British rock and German rock, but has its own distinctive elements mixed in to create a homegrown class of sounds and melodies, whether progressive, hard, or heavy metal.

    I highly doubt it's truly Iranian, considering we've had a trade embargo with Iran for a long time

    Maybe iranian "live rock" is found near the gaza strip , lol
    I'd be afraid though to put it in my tank ' in fear of it taking my tank to the "next level" as it were, LOL
    If it could be imported i wonder if they wrap in towles verses news paper ? LMAO

    Hey dude, slow down here...this is a SW reef discussion forum, and any references to anything political, cultural, or religion is highly discouraged.

    (Some of us have very thin skins about such things...)

    I don't think it's funny and I am going to close this thread if this continues.
