side a: It was all for the kids...
side b: ...Wherever the hell they are!

206 copies of the LP were pressed. 100 copies were sold to fans through a lottery. The rest were given to band members and associates. Some copies of the LP were defective. A note included with the LP reads, "Warning: Potential defect in Jawbreaker pressing. Wouldn't you know it, the label's final release; big finale, ultra limited edition vinyl pressing. And what happens? The plant, after 9 years of successful, service, decides this is the release they are going to mess with. This is just a warning that a potential glitch may exist in your copy of the live Jawbreaker LP. The problem lies in track 4 on side A. There may be some surface noise caused by a poor pressing. Anyone experiencing such problems should return it to the address below and I will replace any and all defective copies. Please accept my humble apologies in advance should you be one of the unfortunate ones. This is pretty embarrassing. I wanted it to be special, but not this way. Thanks for your understanding."

The LP was also shipped with a Jawbreaker sticker and the following note from Adam Pfahler:

"Hello there,

Enclosed is your copy of Jawbreaker Live 4/30/96. This record marks the end of John Yates' Allied Recordings. After nine years and 99 records, what better way to commemorate the 100th and last release than by limiting it to 100 hand-numbered copies available through mail-order lottery only?

Hence this little note: This recording WILL BE AVAILABLE on cd in the Fall of 1999 on Blackball Records (distributed by Revolver) and will include an extra song. I trust you won't lend this coveted piece of wax to some third party to bootleg. Just tell your people to wait until this Halloween to get one of their very own on the cheap.

Also, a double album of all the comp songs, b-sides, rarities and unreleased tracks from 1989 to 1996 will be in stores in early 2000.

Thanks for listening.

Adam Pfahler"

Copies sold by lottery were numbered out of 100, the 100 band copies [this] were not numbered but shared the same cover with ' xx/100 printed in the bottom.
