Apparently facetiousness doesn't translate on the interweb.

Still, though, almost matching Canadian tuxedos is kind of impressive for them.

That last one's priceless. That is definitely the face of a man who has Bono's junk mere inches from the back of his head.

I only just heard someone say this a couple of months ago and had no idea what it could possibly mean.

Oddly enough, Canadians don't refer to wearing denim with denim as a Canadian tuxedo.

Well no. They'd just refer to it as a regular tuxedo.

Is this from a sound check or have they dumped the elaborate light show completely?

it's from the show.  shooting soundcheck would have been great!

since it was a stadium show billed as '360,' the stage was open on all sides and the back, so that people could see.  the lighting was mainly spotlights from the 'arms' of the claw, and some spots that were situated at the far back of the stadium floor area as well.  no fill lighting to speak of.

Wow. How amazingly minimalist of them compared to, say, the ZOO TV days.
