History
Potato was formed by Peechanit Oan-Aari (Pee), Nantakrai Cham-Jaiharn (Note), Oranuch Tangdechavut (Nuch), and Suwatin Watthanawitukun (Bom). Potato's original vocalist was Peechanit Oan-Aari (Pee) but he died on October 3, 2002. This led to the dissolving of the band, but Potato soon reunited in 2003. As of 2008, Potato has a new drummer named Kan Uamsupan (Kan) instead of Suwatin Watthanawitukun (Bom), who left the group after the recording of the "Sense" album but still makes occasional live appearances with the band. Potato's then lineup includes Patchai "Pup" Pukdesusook (vocals), Piywawat "Ohm" Anukul (bass), and Kan Uamsupan (drums). The band's last guitarist, Rattanapon "Win" Keng-Rean, left Potato in 2010 and a number of guitarists from other bands having substituted for him since.
On 2013, Teekatas "Hung" Taviarayakul join as the band's latest guitarist, and Kiattiyos "Aum" Malathong join as keyboardist.

Famous quotes containing the word history:
“In history the great moment is, when the savage is just ceasing to be a savage, with all his hairy Pelasgic strength directed on his opening sense of beauty;—and you have Pericles and Phidias,—and not yet passed over into the Corinthian civility. Everything good in nature and in the world is in that moment of transition, when the swarthy juices still flow plentifully from nature, but their astrigency or acridity is got out by ethics and humanity.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“When we of the so-called better classes are scared as men were never scared in history at material ugliness and hardship; when we put off marriage until our house can be artistic, and quake at the thought of having a child without a bank-account and doomed to manual labor, it is time for thinking men to protest against so unmanly and irreligious a state of opinion.”
—William James (1842–1910)
“I saw the Arab map.
It resembled a mare shuffling on,
dragging its history like saddlebags,
nearing its tomb and the pitch of hell.”
—Adonis [Ali Ahmed Said] (b. 1930)
