Hey luckyTape Opwebsite forager: I've got an extra goodie bag from theTape OpParty we held in March duringSXSW. I don't have the full selection of swag, but I'll thrown in a couple of theSoundToys"special tin can of awesomeness" items which are pretty damn cool, and maybe some other randomTape Opitems 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<em>Tape Op</em>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
