May Coverdisc, Bob Dylan.

Post by Alpha1 »

I know this sounds weird, but I popped the May coverdisc into my pc last night, and it was an audio cd - Bob Dylan, to be exact. To quote Marvin Gaye - "What's going on?"

:cry:

Heh. I wonder if anyone else has the same problem though, because it could be a huge PR nightmare :?

I tried it on both my drives (cdwriter and dvdrom), and then on my girlfriend's laptop just to be sure! I also don't own any Bob Dylan (well, up until the point where I bought the PC Format)..

Remember that PCF's publisher more that likely does the cover disc through a professional service. Maybe there's a batch of PCF discs out there that play Bob Dylan. :wink:

*/me rush off to buy another PCF mag.*

Hi Guys

Yeah we are WELL aware of this *ahem* problem! Our CD printing company made this rather HUGE mess and have been officially beaten and chained for it. Basically they mixed up some of our CD's with some other music CDs. If you think you got a surprise imagine those people who bought the Bob Dylan CD from their local music shop and got a PCF coverdisc soundtrack instead.

Actually that's rather amusing...

hehe but what about the people who actually don't want Bob Dylan music on their coverdisc, is there some way it can be exchanged for a working PCF cover CD?

Shame Tamsini, I'm glad I don't have to deal with all the pressure you get, maybe you should take a nice long vacation and go on a cruise or something 8)

I'm not the biggest Dylan fan, but afaik it starts off with "Bob Dylan - Rainy Day Women #12 & 35" which I recognised from the Forrest Gump soundtrack :) Pity it wasn't a nice progressive house compilation ;)

If PCF is going to be giving away music CD's with the mag, why not make it something decent like Metallica? :P

If next month's cover CD is Britney Spears I'll turn to the dark side! :lol:
