## Trivia

* Even though Greg was absent at the time, he was still seen in the promotional posters.
* The Wigglehouse set was recycled from the Sailing Around the World tour.
* In Music Box Dancer, Larissa Wright wore a fairy costume that soon became the basis for Fairy Larissa.
* The mid-2007 US leg of the tour marked the first time that Toot Toot, Chugga Chugga, Big Red Car would be last in the setlist. It's usually the first song performed in the concert (not counting Overture).
* Anthony had to leave the Spring USA tour a little early due to Antonio Field's birth.
* The March 16, 2007 show from Everett/Seattle, WA was uploaded to The Wiggles (YouTube channel) as part of Unreleased NEVER-BEFORE-SEEN Specials on January 29, 2021, with the Overture and the introduction to Play Your Guitar with Murray edited out on the release due to the rights of Stairway to Heaven song wasn't cleared.
* In early 2007 USA shows, although Sam was the yellow wiggle, the side screen animations for Look Both Ways still had cartoon Greg as the yellow wiggle, because they didn't have any animations for Sam at the time.
* The tour would also mark the last time the Overture was played.
* Anthony has shared clips of different shows from this tour on Instagram back in October 2020.
* The Bakersfield, CA Rabobank Arena show was performed until the same day as the Racing to the Rainbow video and album were released in America.
