This keeps throwing an error SELECT first_name, last_name FROM users WHERE username = "wig-lady";

This keeps throwing an error but the syntax is correct

If you can include a snippet of your code, that'll help us narrow it down for you. Symantically it looks correct but from memory (and mine isn't that flash), wasn't the user name "wig_lady"?

Anywho a snippet would be cool :)

You just have a typo.

As Ben suggested, you wrote ""wig-lady" (with a hyphen) instead of "wig_lady" (with an underscore).

For future questions, please provide a link to the course page along with showing your code.
