Dick Bartling
Drums
Ass't. Professor of Exercise Science at USF and Certified Golf Fitness Instructor
(career unknown)
Dick is the heartbeat and the glue that holds DNR together. Somehow he stumbled into the drumseat of the most average-white showband in SD. He's always affectionately said to us "Don't quit your day jobs!". Dick joined us for a gig 8 years ago and never left. He defines musical excellence and has performed with countless local and regional bands. His roots were in the "Aaron Baron Band" of the late '70's and early 80's. Now he juggles playing with the SD Jazz Orchestra, the Hegg Brothers, Short Fuse, Life Before Color, and the Blarney Stones.
