Apologies if this has been mentioned elsewhere!

I agree, that was really weird. I'd be freaked out if I saw that on tv.

Just wanted to note that I checked out a Tower Records in Jerusalem while I was traveling there last week. I was surprised to see they had "Straight Outta Lynwood" for sale at only 49.99 shekels, approximately $12.75. I checked the back and I believe it was an import from Germany.

They have pictures, they're just two of the photos from inside the booklet, so if you have the dualdisc, you can see. Actually, the photos are similar, but slightly different. The one on the CD is similar to the one of Al sitting on the couch [he's just in a different position] and the DVD has a cropped version of the center-fold photo [you can only see Al]

Hope that helps

ETA: someone did post pictures of the CD/DVD but I can't find the post

Also, Carol posted pictures of the Canadian version, since mine was the Aussie release.
