If she is not playing arenas in six years something is wrong with society.

6?

Not gonna lie, I really wanted her to segway into "You really got me".
That was a really good album.

I love how bored she appears at around 1:12. Effort? What's that? Guitar does what it's told.

She has a youtube channel with 20 videos that I subscribed to. She's got some pretty amazing stuff on there. Super-talented. Makes me want to learn how to play guitar! :yesnod

I noticed the same thing. She looks like she could do the whole thing in her sleep.

It's a soulless reproduction. Talented, absolutely! And I don't mean to take away from that, but I can tell she'd be a real pain to jam with...

Winner winner! In her defense, this is a single example of her playing, I'd like to see some other stuff (and other genres) before I completely pass judgement.

Jizz guitar was fine when I was 14, now it's boring. I'd rather hear teenager pulling off Lindsey Buckingham's solo bits in Trouble, some Chet Atkins (Dizzy Fingers, maybe?) or some of Ry Cooder's more soulful slide work.

Gosh, that is some talent at 14, but I couldn't get past how much distortion was added in. Calm that back just a tiny bit.
