Timeline
In 2015 Darlington resumed touring across the U.S. performing without a full band live, completely solo playing only an electric guitar. He also released new limited-run cassette and vinyl releases on California-based Jerkoff Records and Wiener Records (a subsidiary of Burger Records). Broadway Recording Company also revamped Darlington's digital releases to coincide with new recordings and touring. Darlington's Moron-a-thon radio show episodes were moved to the podbean website where more episodes were posted, includes ones with guest co-host such as Erik Chandler of Bowling for soup and Mike Graff of Course of Empire. Darlington also performed live on bass guitar for a few shows with Austin band the Sweethearts. From 2015 to the present, Darlington has been performing regularly all over the U.S. completely solo with no band and only an electric guitar as accompaniment.
In 2015 Darlington published a magazine entitled "Sunglasses&Sugar", which revisited old Q&As from his old blog as well as featuring new Q&As. The printing run was limited to 2 issues printed in limited quantity and distributed at his live concerts and by mail.
Darlington's radio show, "The Moron-a-thon" became syndicated weekly on Deep Ellum Radio in February 2014, lasting for 46 episodes until August 2014.
In 2012, Hollywood-based independent record label, Broadway Recording Company, signed Darlington to a contract. Darlington repackaged previously released solo material under the band name Sunglasses&Sugar, and released it on an album entitled Vuvuzuelas. After putting together a lineup and performing live, "Sunglasses&Sugar" recorded a three song Maxi-Single entitled "Tinsel Tree" that was produced and mixed by Salim Nourallah. These songs were rerecorded versions of Darlington songs. After eight live shows, which included opening up for singer Lezlie Deane's band Scary cherry and the bang bangs, the Dollyrots, and Jaret Reddick's band People on Vacation, Darlington disbanded the project to work with Broadway Recording Company on compiling out-of-print releases for reissue and writing new material.
In 2012, he became a published author with his first novel, entitled "Babycakes". The 600 plus page fictional account of a female protagonist named "Babycakes" was published through Amazon on paperback and as an e-book.
Aside from a few compilations and limited vinyl releases, Darlington's only full-length recordings between 2009 and 2011 were all available digitally only.
In 2009, Darlington maintained a blog he titled Sunglasses&Sugar in which he conducted interviews with many famous and semi-famous people from various walks of life which included Mark Pirro of Tripping Daisy and the Polyphonic Spree, Cliffy Huntington of the Huntingtons, Joe Queer of the Queers, Zach Blair of Rise Against and Hagfish band, Phanie Diaz of Girl in a coma, Tish Ciravolo of Daisy Rock Guitars, Boz Boorer of Morrissey's band, singer Alice Bag, Brendan B. Brown of Wheatus, singer Brijitte West of the band NY Loose, Darley Newman, host of Equitrekking, and Julie Schablitsky of Time Team America. In late 2009, the blog was discontinued and deleted, but the interviews were all archived online by Times Beach magazine.
In 2008, he co-wrote the songs "SUV" and "Girls + Summer = Fun!" with Jaret Reddick of Bowling For Soup. Reddick and other Bowling For Soup members, Erik Chandler and Gary Wiseman, performed on the songs. The two singles were released digitally in 2009.
After a three-year legal battle over a charge of sexual assault stemming from a 2006 encounter with a 16-year-old girl, Darlington accepted a plea bargain in 2009 for five years deferred adjudication probation as well as mandatory counseling. He was also required to register as a sex offender. Texas state law prohibited Darlington from presenting mitigating evidence that the female had misrepresented her age to him in court as a defense. Darlington appealed the case on that basis, but the appeal was denied. Darlington completed probation and counseling in November 2014. In 2016 the state of Texas approved application for Darlington to be removed from the sex offender registry, but the judge would not sign off on the removal unless the Dallas district attorney's office also signed off on the removal. The DA office refused.
Darlington was endorsed by Daisy Rock Guitars in 2003.

Many of the "mess-era" recordings would later be reissued under the Darlington name. In late 1997, the band was notified a Chicago-area band called the Mess had the name copyrighted and was threatening legal action if the name was not changed. Starting in late 1996 thru late 1997, Mess played its first out of town concert opening for the band Fastball and performed multiple U.S. tours between January and September 1997, including opening slots for major label bands NY Loose, the Reverend Horton Heat, Keanu Reeves' group Dogstar, Radish, Funland, Hagfish, Tripping Daisy, Fluffy, 22 Jacks, the Queers, Swingin Utters, Agent Orange, At the Drive-in, Showcase Showdown, Furious George and the U.S. Bombs.

The band also recorded a live concert at the famed CBGB rock venue in New York City, although this would only be released later under the Darlington name.

The band featured four second guitarists, most notably Phil Karnats of Tripping Daisy fame and Dylan Silvers who went on to other bands, including the Polyphonic Spree.
