I just got vol.5 on CD. I listened to the second disc and it's actually the second disc of Thing-Fish instead of the 2nd disc of YCDTOS Vol. 5. Has this happened to anyone else?

I think someone on Zappateers mentioned that recently. Or was that you again?

I bought Them Or Us at a Best Buy and it was a Roxette album. So yeah, I took it back the same day.

When the Beat The Boots series came out a friend of mine bought Any Way The Wind Blows and found it had two disc ones. He asked me about it and I confirmed that there was a disc two and that there was a mixup with his copy. That would have been quite a way to take the Beat The Boots concept to an extreme, if it had been intentional.

If that move was intentional, the series could be known as "Beat the Boobs" :D

When I got Beat the Boots home, One of the CD cases was empty, I must have opened it 6 times, because it just couldn't be true. Had to pack up the whole thing and haul it back. Now there are hundreds of FZ shows on YouTube with better sound quality than BtB

I've learned over the years to open the package as soon as you get into your car to make sure you got what you just paid for... I've never had a disc that had the incorrect information on it, but I have found the wrong disc for what I bought, as well as two disc "ones" in a two disc set.


But add me to the list of people that say "take it back"
