WIN PRIZES! TAPE OP PARTY SXSW GOODIE BAG GIVEAWAY!

Hey lucky Tape Op website forager: I've got an extra goodie bag from the Tape Op Party we held in March during SXSW. I don't have the full selection of swag, but I'll thrown in a couple of the SoundToys "special tin can of awesomeness" items which are pretty damn cool, and maybe some other random Tape Op items laying around the office here (like used Kleenex, promo CD-Rs, dead batteries and so on). Okay, so to win this prize be the first person to answer this question (through the "comments section" below): What engineer/producer was in the excellent Austin band, Glass Eye, which issue of Tape Op was he interviewed in and who was the author of that piece? The ONE AND ONLY prize will be mailed out by me personally, so please allow 2 to 6 weeks for delivery unless there's a cool Netflix DVD waiting at the post office and then it will be sooner. And keep an eye out for announcement of a SXSW-timed party next year! Free drinks, music and peers! Thanks! -Larry Crane
