It's two semi trailers worth of equipment we hang in the air

 Two semi trailers is a good start... just wait until you start working with bands that have 10, or 12... IIRC, Rascal Flats was 18...
 
I am in audio, so I have a thing for picking on the lighting guys....
My last outdoor gig (NOLA Jazz and Heritage Festival) we had over 2 semi trailers, just for audio.
 
You know why lighting truss is made of aluminum?
So it doesn't rust before they get it off the deck
 
Two riggers walk into a bar... you'd think the second one would have ducked
