Hey Jack,

What they are asking you to fix in the second line is the delcaration of the variable band. They origionally have it as band = console.readLine("Which band? ");

however unlike the other variable they don't declare what type it is, in Java this is required otherwise we'll see errors.

So it should look something like this below line.

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

Thanks, let me know if this helps.
