The Joshua Tree Tour was a concert tour by Irish rock band U2. Staged in support of their 1987 album The Joshua Tree, it comprised 109 shows over three legs, spanning from April to December that year. The first and third legs visited North America, while the second leg toured Europe. Although it featured minimal production like the group's previous tours, the Joshua Tree Tour was the first to involve larger venues in arenas and stadiums as a result of the album's breakthrough. Much like U2 did on The Joshua Tree, on tour the group explored social and political concerns, along with American roots and mythology, collaborated with American guest musicians and opening acts such as B. B. King. U2 also recorded new material; these songs and their experiences on tour were depicted on the 1988 album and documentary film Rattle and Hum and on the 2007 video and live album Live from Paris. Territories that this tour missed would later be covered by Rattle and Hum's Lovetown Tour.

In organosulfur chemistry, sulfinamide is a functional group with the structure R−S(O)−NR2. This functionality is composed of a sulfur-carbon single bond, a sulfur-nitrogen single bond, and a sulfur-oxygen (S-O) bond. As a non-bonding electron pair is present on the sulfur, the sulfur atom is a stable stereogenic centre, and so these compounds are chiral. They are sometimes referred to as S-chiral sulfinamides. Sulfinamides are amides of sulfinic acid.
