How a plastic part from Home Depot's toilet aisle changed the sound of indie rock
A guitar modification designed by Reuben Cox at Old Style Guitar Shop was a secret weapon in the music world — until Orangewood started manufacturing their own.

Last year I was served an Instagram ad for Orangewood's rubber bridge guitar, and my first thought was: Either Reuben Cox is in on this or he's pissed. It was the latter. For the @latimes.com I tried to figure out: Does anyone _own_ the rubber bridge guitar?

Greg Ginn hadn't done an interview in 13 years when I reached out. I figured he would say no, if he said anything at all. But after enlisting three Gen Z musicians to be in Black Flag with him, he decided it was time to talk. For @nytimes.com:

Very fun going through these. No musician means more to me, no list of “favorite” songs is harder to parse down. If I had to choose one today, my fav Neil song is “White Line,” home to one of the greatest riffs ever—don’t it feel like rollin down the highway? Long live the king

Worst feeling I ever had as a sports fan was losing game 7 of the 2017 World Series. I swear a part of me died that day. So I feel for the Blue Jays team and their fanbase, who largely seem cool. But George Springer? Enjoy karma, cheater. Enjoy hell
