• Non Sequitur Scene: Even by the standards of the concert, the number "Genius of Love", where frontman David Byrne disappears and side project Tom Tom Club takes over.
  • This was done so Byrne could change into the big suit for the next song.
• Covered Up: "Take Me to the River", originally performed by Al Green but which Talking Heads made their own, serves as the climax of the concert.
• Crowning Moment of Awesome: David Byrne dancing with a lamp, as well as his "big suit".
• Ensemble Darkhorse: Bassist Tina Weymouth plays as many songs (fifteen) as Byrne, and has plenty of moments to shine. When all the band members are introduced to the audience near the end of the concert, she gets the loudest reaction.
• Genius Bonus: The concept of the roadies dressed in black visible on the stage was borrowed from Japanese theater. It's up to the audience to not see them.
• Memetic Outfit: The big - and we mean big - suit that Byrne wears in the last part of the concert is forever associated with both him and this movie.
