Hey everyone,
been lurking here for a while and finally decided to make a post! :D
I recently aquired the WDADU Demos bootleg via eBay (Austrian dealer). However, something's strange about it. On the discs it says "When Dream and Day Unhe" rather than "When Dream and Day Unite". Also the pressing on the CD seems rather cheap and "flat", not with reflective silvery letters like my SFAM bootleg. The booklet is fine, although the letters seem a bit washed out.
So now I'm wondering if the CD is legit. Are there actually fake copies of these bootlegs around? :omg: Maybe you guys can help me out. I found an image of an identical set on the interwebs:

Thanks in advance! :metal

Damn, I don't know. But it does look fishy. Try sending a PM to ZeppelinDT. If what you have is a legit misprinting, he will most likely know and tell you.

Unfortunately it looks like a bootleg.
I got caught a few years ago, again via an ebay seller, when i ordered a copy of The Dark Side of the Moon DVD.
When it arrived it was in a poor quality digipack and the image on the DVD bore no resemblance to the other Ytse Jam releases.
On yours the type face on the discs is not the same as used on the official releases.
Sorry, but I have been burnt so know what its like. :sad:

Those are fake. One the original YJR copies, the center ring adds dis colorization (almost transparent) to the top of "EN DR" in When Dream

This is are not the official release for sure.

Oh well, that's a real shame. :-[ Thanks everyone for your input!
