Enclosure
Included with the release is a single sheet folded in half, yielding a four-page enclosure. The front duplicates the cover of the CD and the back contains a drawing of a dragon eating its tail against a background of clouds that merge with the clouds on the cover.

The two pages inside contain a wide black-and-white drawing of the venue by Alfred Meeson. Above this drawing, in the clouds, are lists of the contents of and credits for the release.
