John Bettis

This hit-making songwriter is best known for his collaboration with the Carpenters, particularly lifelong friend Richard Carpenter, with whom he played live music in the Coke Corner (now Refreshment Corner) restaurant on Main Street, USA while they were just starting out. The duo was fired after four months for playing contemporary hits instead of old-timey music, but his career turned out just fine, seeing as he went on to write hits for Whitney Houston, Michael Jackson, Madonna, George Strait, and others. He also wrote many theme songs for TV shows, including Growing Pains starring Joanna Kerns, who herself once worked at Disneyland, playing Pinocchio's Blue Fairy in the Main Street Electrical Parade.

Steve Martin is arguably the celebrity who most famously used to work at Disneyland, but he acquired his love of the banjo the same way as this man, who was then his co-worker: The teenagers would take their breaks at the magic shop to run over to Frontierland to listen to the live bluegrass music. As a professional banjoist, he went on to a nearly forty-year membership in a famous Dirt Band, who once played backup on Martin's "King Tut" while billed as the Toot Uncommons. Go »

He has rocked out as a member of so many notable bands—Devo, Foo Fighters, Guns N' Roses, Sublime, the Vandals, Nine Inch Nails, A Perfect Circle, and more—that it's easy to overlook his first, a Top 40 cover band that played on stage at the Tomorrowland Terrace restaurant. By then he had already spent a lot of time at the park, since his father led the Disneyland Band, who he used to march behind while playing toy instruments. Go »
