Tom Waits Gun Street Girl on Setar!

من قصد توهين نداشتم

من خودم سه تار مي زنم.....به نظر مي رسه علاقه به تنبور داشته باشي تا سه تار

اين سبکي که ميزني، مربوط هست به تنبور

@mizd61 ok, i think i misread, unfortunately my farsi is already bad and typed comments don't convey intentions very well. the technique though is actually guitar technique (although i guess from a persian view it is tambour technique). since the song isn't a traditional persian one, but a blues-esque song by a western artist, i felt the best way to interpret the song was to play in a way that was not traditional to setar.

also, sorry this in english, but i'm not sure how to say it in farsi.
