A lovely poster child but alas, not what I would need to pick up a guitar...
coolfeel Posted September 4, 2013 Posted September 4, 2013 ^^^ThisThe guitar is more of a prop for the performance and really is secondary or even tertiary in this case...
specialk Posted September 4, 2013 Posted September 4, 2013 Or maybe she found out that dad's been viewing it... an awful lot. Or just maybe her dad is a member of the HFC. And read this thread....

Nathan of Brainfertilizer Fame Posted September 4, 2013 Posted September 4, 2013 Hold the phone Mable . . . . some of us are not remotely comparing apples to apples here. We’re not talking about Janis Joplin and she’s sure the heck not claiming or portraying herself to be that. She’s just a young lady playing an acoustic guitar in her dang bedroom. Does it help that she’s easy on the eyes – sure. But all of this needs to be kept in the proper perspective. Now, if this 17 year old young lady was instead a 27 year old seasoned artist, performing on a stage somewhere or trying to charge money as a paid professional – then fire away – its fair game. But to dissect a young adult’s musical talent to this level, who is just starting to cut her teeth in the music industry is pretty short sighted and comes across fairly harsh. YouTube is huge as a market place, but is also possibly the most brutal stage out there. It takes HUGE stones to post anything about you on it - for this exact reason - much less a damn music video of yourself. She’s pretty good by any standard and damn good for any seventeen year old (hooters or not). She has a couple dozen videos with tens of thousands of views on each one – so she’s doing more than a little something right. As for her not smiling or making the right faces when playing?!?!?! Good-f#@king-grief man, I’m lucky if I’m not involuntarily making crazy Michael Jordan tongue aerobic faces when I play something hard (for me) – so much for MY stage presence. And for what it’s worth, I’m pretty sure if I had been that talented a guitarist/musician when I was seventeen and looked that good (slim chance there), I would have stacked enough cash there would be no HFC threads about the “remaining four digit Standards out there”. Because I’d have a man-cave the size of a lumber mill and I’d already own every flippin’ four digit Standard that had popped up for sale and a couple a hundred of their Hamer USA friends to help fill it. Holy sh*t, would that make me a Hamer-hoarder? All cussing and discussing aside, I’m honestly just thrilled that someone in her generation is still very passionate about playing the guitar – period. Like most people, I wish her nothing but incredible success. Just in case my disclaimer was unclear: all my criticisms were tongue-in-cheek. I am actually impressed with her ability. I like her voice, she plays an instrument (which always makes me a fan), and she chose a good tune. If I had one actual criticism of her, it would be that with her voice, she should be doing hair-band stuff. She needs 20 years of whiskey and smoking before she could do AC/DC vocal stylings any real justice. But I still enjoyed the performance with the window minimized.
gorch Posted September 4, 2013 Posted September 4, 2013 ^Boomerang-Junkie, that's spot on... and you got balls too. To be frank, I didn't watch her other videos and took it very lightly my side. I didn't even give it a deep thought, but I think you're right. We as a crowd here can be very unfair and merciless. What if this was a video of the daughter of one of us, posted on a "Proud Dad" thread? I bet we would praise and applaud!For sure she knows to move herself to attention. Which is part of business. She not only has a voice, she's playing guitar at the same time. What anoys me when I see the preview pics of the other videos is that she should go out and play to the public. Big click counts are one thing. Performimg before a crowd is another.
Feynman Posted September 4, 2013 Posted September 4, 2013 I am thinking that some of you are taking this too seriously.
Nathan of Brainfertilizer Fame Posted September 5, 2013 Posted September 5, 2013 Isn't that what message boards were created for?
diablo175 Posted September 5, 2013 Posted September 5, 2013 Or just maybe her dad is a member of the HFC. And read this thread.... If that was true, he'd already know what was likely to happen, even before his little girl's vid got posted. Here at the HFC, we take t*ts seriously and our guitar playing... well, not so much.
diablo175 Posted September 5, 2013 Posted September 5, 2013 Thread derail (or sidebar, if you will) : Just wanted to give props to BlueRedWhite for being a good sport through all of this. Much of what is said (at least, from this end) is half-joking, cage rattling. It's actually quite fun to play the stereotype to the hilt. That being said, I am mindful of how my comments could be misconstrued as demeaning and/or sexist, and well, they are to a tiny degree. But credit to those who have worked to keep this board on the level and fair, and to those who contribute herein, knowing that everyone is entitled to opinions and some are compelled to share them in a humorous yet antagonistic manner. Derail over.
BlueRedWhite Posted September 5, 2013 Author Posted September 5, 2013 Hey diablo, don't worry, i do understand the points that were made, some as joke, some too serious and some ironical...i love the exchange and i like the debate. At the end, it was just a pretty girl playing guitar. I don't get mad at all. It's the way of the HFC and to be sincere, i love it. hey, you can't be perfect, if you were, you would be a girl lots of love from here to all of you.
sixesandsevens Posted September 5, 2013 Posted September 5, 2013 4 million plus views and copy written material will get ya suspended on the ol' BoobTube... I think one of you guys must have reported her. Her channel is back today... If I had one actual criticism of her, it would be that with her voice, she should be doing hair-band stuff. She needs 20 years of whiskey and smoking before she could do AC/DC vocal stylings any real justice. But I still enjoyed the performance with the window minimized. Ask and ye shall receive: And for those who said she should get out of the bedroom, she's got a few live videos too:
Armitage Posted September 5, 2013 Posted September 5, 2013 And don't think for a minute she didn't put on the low cropped top and push up bra by accident... (hey, if I looked like that I would too!).

svl Posted September 5, 2013 Posted September 5, 2013 I don't look like that, but I just went out and bought a low cropped top and push-up bra. Figured what the fuck, it can't hurt.... but Jesus wept, it does!!!! How do you gals wear this shit and not Buffalo Bill (see below) yourselves just to never have to wear it again!
