The Search for Tapes

I purchased a bunch of high bias type 2 cassette tapes five years ago, hoping to use them for demos on my badly scarred Yamaha MT8x. I figured I'd buy four or five, as this is an anachronistic medium and will be gone in a few years.


Dang, I hate it when I'm right

I got to use one, promptly forgot about the rest, then went back to digital recording.

Now with a shiny new Portastudio, I can't find the tapes anywhere. And I made some feeble attempts to find some in stores, but failed.

Aaaaaarrrrrrgggh!
I'll just have to buy from EvilBay, which will make Mr. Customs Guy happy.

(this is the part where I say @$*&*&#%^ you Customs, but that's another story)
