The set included material from all of Brackets' previous albums, as well as songs from E is for Everything on Fat Wreck Chords. Several tracks are different from their studio version counterpart. "Warren's Song, Pt. 8" (which appeared on Short Music for Short People) features a lengthy musical introduction, while "2RAK005" is played at mid-tempo pace compared to its original version. The song "2RAK005" is featured on the soundtrack to Tony Hawk's Underground. The studio version of "Hearing Aid" can be found on Live Fat, Die Young.
