Is that not just a barre chord rather than a power chord?

well she's playing a bar chord at that moment, yes. however, I imagine she plays some other chords in the rest of the song. probably some that use the the capo.

This is one of the few natural finish looks that I actually like.

... is completely analogous to power chords without one.

If you're going to poke fun at the pretty lady playing guitar, at least have some form of basis for your sneer.

to be fair, that's a bad picture. bad lighting, bad camera, she just woke up and she's making a funny face.

Marc Bolan was good, but he was no Chad Kroeger. Marc wrote 20th Century Boy, Bang A Gong, Children of the Revolution, Telegram Sam, Hot love and Metal Guru, but Chad Kroeger has proven himself one of the most versatile artists working in rock today... just ask Gibson.
