So the clip is definitely a recent Armenian creation in Los Angeles. I would say between 2005-2007 period and performed purely by Armenians. Note that Berberian is a comedian...this might be one of his acts.
The singers con-artists, including Mr. Vahe Berberian.
The accordeons are of recent make, and the eye glasses by armani or gucci design.
However to top it all the rope lighting at the edge of the stage a 5-7 year old innovation used commonly during X-Mas time
in where did you say? PESHAWAR.....PAKISTAN....Ha?
