--- Quote from: St.Clair on 25 Apr 2017, 21:06 ---I think what Claire's feeling is a combination of "but this is a big deal, in my mind, even if the reality is I kind of stumbled into it... why isn't this more of a big deal?" and "aren't you going to miss me?" (except that, as Mom points out, she's not going very far at all).
She's invested this event, this (dare I say it?) transition, with a lot more importance and/or fanfare than it actually seems to be happening with.

I imagine its more the case that nothing Claire does now is a huge surprise, I mean, Claire's mother likes Marten and knows he's a good guy. She probably barely batted an eyelid over the piercings. I'd wager that Claire's mother probably realises that her daughter is far more determined than other people and knows what she is doing and what she wants. She'd have to be, even without thinking about it, for her entire life. At the end of the day, she's raised a good daughter with her head screwed on straight and able to look after herself.

Her mother knows, Claire just needs to realise it herself. She's her own woman now and doesn't need mom's approval.

--- Quote from: BenRG on 24 Apr 2017, 23:15 ---I think that Claire is either struggling to find a consistent aesthetic or she sees no point to going by anyone's lights except her own. I mean, combat boots and a sun-dress with a fleece jacket on top? You have to admit that's a mix of lots of styles!

--- End quote ---

Are you sure those are combat boots?  It looks purple with gold studs.  I don't know of too many armies that go into battle wearing those.

--- End quote ---

Not too many armies, no, just the FABULOUS ones.

And where did mom get that amp stack? you could play Fenway with that rig, her poor neighbours.  I have never understood five string bass, why not just get a baritone guitar?

Depends on the five string. Some have the fifth string being lower, some have the fifth string being higher.

Baritone is smack in the middle between bass and guitar.

And what do you do onstage with not-even-half-a-bass?  :mrgreen:

Or do you mean the H-string lacking 'punch' due to the scale being too short? In that case: Tune to C, use it as thumbrest, "live with it", or buy a LeFay


blt:
This isn't the first time that Marten and Claire have made a "big" announcement and gotten an underwhelmed response either.
