Dikke Dennis is also a guest singer with speedrock band Peter Pan Speedrock. It all started as a joke when Bartman played with The Lovesteaks. Dikke Dennis jumped on stage and grabbed the mic to sing along. From that point on he was with the band for a long time, until the band decided that he should quit doing that.
After that, Bartman started with Peter Pan Speedrock and introduced Dikke Dennis.
Now, he's a part of the band and he's with them at almost every event to introduce the band in his own style. He has also made a track (together with Peter Pan Speedrock) called "Schoppen Aas", a dutch translation of Motörhead's Ace Of Spades
