I must do this... We're Alive: Canada! I will all of the voices, including a French Canadian woman. What was happening in the Great White North? How did its citizens respond? Were there survivors? What is their tale? It will be the most polite zombie survival narrative of all time. Most of it will be about surviving winter.

Evie: vinyl having a warmer "sound" is a lie hipsters tell themselves to explain away the money they have blown. Actually I get what your saying, I'm just in one of those moods...carry on.
all of you mentioning different locales for the w/a universe. You know what would be fun? Is if after w/a ends, some type of new fangled "fan fiction" section opened up on the forum. Something where in journal format everyone could record, or write what could be happening within the w/a-iverse in that particular area. Would it be the same as what we have all come to love? No. But it could be all those tales we would want to hear. Personally that idea excites me just as much as KCs next project, regardless of whether it has anything to do with WA or not.
shit, that wasn't the question was it?...I'm waiting for the Nyquil to kick in so this sick man can pass out. Apologies.

Judging from the WA download map that KC provided us with earlier in the week, I'd say we could have an interesting mix of tales and stories. For those living within the California area, a few cameos or references to the main story would be interesting.
For example:
"We were driving frantically through downtown LA. The sun was setting and we were anxious to find somewhere safe to hold up for the night before the biters night attacks begin. Then we saw it. An apartment tower. And then we saw the young couple. A man and a blond woman, being chased by a large group of biters. They began banging on the front door, which was obviously well secured. The biters closed in all around them. We knew they were goners - they had no means of escape, no weapons and no answer at the door. Then suddenly, the door swung open, a man in military fatigues yelled at the couple to get inside. Then the biters got to the man, tearing strips off his flesh. The woman was screaming and calling his name - Todd, I believe. The soldier dragged her in and closed the door behind them.
Then the horde turned its attention in our direction. We had no choice but to move on. I floored the pedal and sped south. Maybe we'll try coming back here in the morning or another day.
As the final rays of sunlight began to fade, a large silhouette emerged ahead. One of my companions, a local guy, identified it as the Hockey Arena. Might be a good place to find a fortified shelter.
Hopefully..."

Ah! Sounds interesting to me as well.
You have my attention.
As an added bonus, Tampa Bay and the Red Sox are rivals... therefore a slightly increased police presence in the park wouldn't be entirely out of the question. If someone writes this, I propose that two of the main characters are a Boston Cop and a Sox fan.

Hey, get a load of this. Guess who started writing again and has a spot in the fan fiction subforum?
I think straight sound without voice might be a bridge too far. However, if it is a labor of love, it cannot be contained. So go for it! But, I know of composers that have tried to tell stories with musical instruments and it always seems to need additional translation to be appreciated. If I might be so bold as to suggest an off-site narrator. If the protagonist is in the lab at the outbreak, there might be an announcer suggesting evac, or pointing out that XYZ is compromised.
Playing a long the same lines, I think a two arc story would be really interesting. Tactical and strategic. The protagonist in the tactical and a tv or radio type CNN coverage. Orson wells did the flip flop perspective to great affect in the war of the worlds radio broadcast. Sometimes there was an on-site broadcaster giving the play by play of the events. Other times there was someone back at the station giving a strategic overview of news reports.
