Tuxedo change

Just a small quip, but I noticed that the following line regarding the music video seems misleading:

"When law-enforcement officers appear at the back of the venue, Mac quickly starts a small fire onstage and Linda hollers "FIRE!", emptying the venue and allowing the group to escape via backstage (yet somehow finding time to change into tuxedoes first)."

If one looks clearly, it is clear that Mac and Jack have already changed into tuxedos before starting the fire, as shown when they peek around the side of the stage. Mac (McCartney) does presumably throw a costume on top of his tuxedo before starting the fire, but Jack (Jackson) is obviously in a tuxedo as he calls out "Fire!" Given this, the text written above seems false. Therefore, it seems that we can conclude Jack didn't change at all after the fire, and Mac simply took off the costume and donned the dinner jacket. None of this seems notable enough to merit mentioning in the article, so I suggest that the line is altered, perhaps to the following, unless somebody else has a better idea:

"When law-enforcement officers appear at the back of the venue, Mac starts a small fire onstage and Linda hollers "FIRE!", emptying the venue and allowing the group to escape via backstage."
