Funny Things In Album Booklets

I always prefer to purchase CDs/physical media when I can because I really like having the booklets, lyrics, thank-you notes, etc. And every once in a while there are pretty funny things I come across when reading the booklets - sometimes intentional, sometimes not. What are some fun/funny things you've found in the booklets?

One example is that in the 20 Years Of Kreyson's thank-you notes, it says, "tady chybi tecka" which means "missing dash here." Oops! Embarassed

Because it's in Czech and the CD was released on an American label with all notes in English, I could see how that'd happen. Nonetheless, it's kinda funny.

Another thing that made me chuckle was in Slechtvalk's album A Forlorn Throne, their member Ohtar thanks a bunch of people and then "beer in general." drunken

I remember the CD booklet of the Alestorm album Sunset on the Golden Age being pretty hilarious. I'm at work though so I can't give examples...

I also really like the readings around the CD itself. Anyone found something funny lately?

I don't think I've ever noticed anything fun on those; usually just release date, label info, etc. I'm curious what silly stuff you've seen on the CDs!

A tip would be to check out releases from Endtime Productions for example, We (Nordic Mission) kind of heritated this same bad humour, ha ha! :-)

Aha, I've got a handful of Endtime and Nordic Mission releases; I look forward to seeing what kind of goofiness you guys have got going on!

I got a good chuckle out of what was written on Frosthardr's and Melech's full-lengths. Razz

Thanks for the tip!
