The band name is written in light bulbs at the top of the advert. This is considered the trademark font of the band, it highlights their theatrical nature as it suggests glamour. Purple, often associated with royalty helps to reinforce this idea of glamour as it is the main colour used within the advert. The other colour used is gold, as this colour also has connotations of glamour, wealth and prestige it highlights the band's position within the rock industry. It suggests that they chose not to conform to ideas associated with the genre such as unglamorous, unkept appearances. The central image is the Royal Albert Hall, which further enforces this idea of glamour. It adds a setting to the advert as it is a live album from a performance at the Royal Albert Hall. But this contrasts with the cacti and palm trees, which give the advert an American setting. This is used to signify to audiences the band's Las Vegas roots.
