Hey, it's your favorite half of a podcast's band, working out some stuff in the studio - it's just us faffing around, but we miss you and wanted to send you something fun! Bake it away, toys!
-
So, Console Obscura is still on indefinite hiatus. Ian and Wylie have a band, Kenny has a band, Jimmy is going to college and bought a house, lots of stuff going on in everyone's life! We may get the podcast gang back together at some point in the future, but in the interim, we'll post other stuff members are doing, like this!
Sunstang is Ian and Wylie's band - a four piece, and Ian and Wylie write all the tunes and whatnot. Wylie is the lead singer and Ian plays lead guitar. This is our first ever live show, in entirety, at the Substation in the Fremont neighborhood of Seattle. Hope you like it!

Many factual errors are made in this episode, so feel free to sprinkle it liberally with "it isn't", "he didn't", "she didn't", "they didn't", and "it wasn't", as needed. Channel your inner Ron Howard. :)

Good morning. In less than an hour, aircraft from here will join others from around the world. And you will be launching the largest aerial battle in this history of mankind.
Mankind -- that word should have new meaning for all of us today.
We can't be consumed by our petty differences anymore.
We will be united in our common interests.
Perhaps its fate that today is the 4th of July, and you will once again be fighting for our freedom, not from tyranny, oppression, or persecution -- but from annihilation.
We're fighting for our right to live, to exist.
And should we win the day, the 4th of July will no longer be known as an American holiday, but as the day when the world declared in one voice:
"We will not go quietly into the night!
We will not vanish without a fight!
We're going to live on!
We're going to survive!"
Today, we celebrate THE RETURN OF CONSOLE OBSCURA!!!

We didn't want to have to do another one of these. Certainly not so soon. But... COME ON, MAN...
