Not sure why you have some the extra stuff there, but the correct code that is needed to pass is:

String firstName = "Gordon";

String lastName = "Sumner";

console.printf("Hello %s", firstName);

String band = console.readLine("Which band?  ");

The only thing needed to pass the final step 4 is to add 'String' to the front of the uncommented line.

Thanks both for your responses

Those additional console.readLine calls at the beginning are not needed, the bug was in the data type, which you corrected. I have a bug in my code that I'm working on fixing. Sorry about that!
