tape works badly.  it either comes off at the wrong point
and leaves you stranded or can't be removed for the
next time you want to play the whole thing.

weights are the way to go -- a thin heavy weight
that keeps the key down.

a lot of players use this,
I'll bet you there are even weights made specifically
for this purpose.  lots of advantages, you can move
'em around, you can see what notes are held, etc. etc.
