The Players
**PEOPLE WHO HAVE BEEN FEATURED IN PPTKO ALBUM RECORDINGS**
- JC Simonsen
- Most PPTKO album material has been written, performed, and mixed/mastered by JC.
- Nate Thompson
- He played in the first live band, then went on to join Big Sucking Moose. He played drums on a few tracks on "blue".
- Rob Willardson
- He helped on "blue".
- He also played in two short-lived live bands later on.
- He has his own stuff and it's pretty cool. Look for it.
- Julie Van Horn
- She helped sing for two tracks on "Contagion".
- She has an amazing voice.
- We won a talent show together once performing an Indigo Girls song. (circa 2000)
- Spencer Price
- He wrote (in collaboration) a couple of songs we used to play together.
- One of his songs (that JC co-wrote) ended up on "Contagion" ("Want to Know").
- There is one more we worked on, and PPTKO may do it some day if possible. I think it's called "Wide Open".
- Curtis Simonsen
- He co-wrote "Nailed" which is on "Between the Lines".
- He had a band called "Might As Well" that was pretty good. I may have the only copy of their CD at this point??
**PEOPLE WHO WERE IN PPTKO LIVE BANDS**
- Andy Higham
- He played in a couple of live bands. He writes cool stuff but none of it has yet ended up on a PPTKO album.
- Mike Dean
- He played in the first live band.
- Dustin Nell
- He played in pSYCHotic Episode and several other short-lived live bands.
- We did an acoustic show together once (bunch of covers) that is still a favorite of mine. It was a fun night / good atmosphere.
- Dean Cuthbert
- He's a friend and an aussie (got to mention that).
- He played in a brief live band and did the coolest solo ever on "fine" by accidentally using the wrong strings.
- Dan Ball
- He played Bass briefly in the same live band as Dean Cuthbert.
**PEOPLE WHO WERE IN OTHER RELATED LIVE BANDS**
- Sean Hales
- He sang in pSYCHotic Episode.
- He wrote a song (for psychotic) called Character Flaw that is awesome, PPTKO would love to put it on an album.
- Matt Hersman
- He played bass a lot in HS and was in a live band for a little while.
- Austin Christensen
- He sang "Please don't go" by the violent femmes for us once in a show. It was cool.
- Patrick HWAILBUYGH
- Swedish
- I have no idea how to spell his last name and only a vague idea of how to say it.
- We recorded several of his songs which he wrote. One was called "Felt that Way" and it's really cool.
- None of his songs are published (to my knowledge). I'd love to do "Felt that Way" as a PPTKO song.
