Not only the biggest, but by far the best Iranian Festival Outside of Iran. Tirgan just set a new standard for iranian festivals/events worldwide. Hats off to Iranian Canadians in Toronto!A unique and interesting feature of Tirgan was that it included no LA pop singers, while other festivals’ leading attraction often center around such figures. Iranican Live explores this issue to examine the cultural and social relevance of any festival’s artist selection. The original post for the Iranican Reports: Tirgan with a higher quality is here on iranican.com
Iranican Live is podcasting an anticipated radio show with guests Jian Ghomeshi and Mehrdad Ariannjead on the festival on RadioJavan.com. Iranican Live is a freestyle radio program which explores, with no hidden agenda and no rules, a host of iranian cultural issues through a talk show interface. It has been added to the Radio Javan lineup as a bi-weekly talk show on Wednesdays 10PM EST/7PM PST since May 21, 2008. Iranican Live podcasts are available on the Radio Javan podcasts page.

Thanks for all the good work, But the choice of music on the report was the most senseless thing I ever heard,” I kissed a girl, I liked it”! on Lotfi’s concert? You kidding me?!!!
Keep up the good work and try to have better choices in music!

Maloos Joon,
Pay attention. If you listen to the context of the conversation when the song comes up. They’re talking about mixing pop-music with traditional “Sonnati” music. Not coincidentally Kate Perry’s song “I Kissed a girl” was the number one song of the week, meaning most popular, meaning most “POP” song. Watch it again and listen closer.
