About Me

Gettin crunk up in this piece with Speedmop. We are the guys you've seen at the last best party you've been to. Speedmop is the result of a few guys trying to get the hell out of the Stanwood Hotel into the bar at the other end of town before it closed. One guy had to quickly clean up fast. Real fast. We have had people say to us, "How could you do that to my favorite song?" and, "I used to really like that one."...............Speedmop consists of a group of intellectuals who have appeared as members of:............. Haymaker, Elvis LIVE!, The Bourbonites, Mama Tried, Wild Kingdom, The Crowd Thinners, Big Stick Daddy, The Wildcats, The Mighty Speedmop, Thee Speedmop, The Mighty Mighty Speedmop, Son of Speedmop, The All American Speedmop, Hard Money Speedmop, and a few others... we've been to all the places you hang out and we've said hi to you and your friends. We think you're cool. Real cool. BTW quit peeing on our stickers.

Turn off MP3 sound before launching video

Turn off the MP3 sound before launching video. Otherwise Myspace overlaps the two soundtracks. and then it sounds like one of our gigs.

Myspace "Friends" Policy

Speedmop tries to keep our "friend" count down to the core people who we know, or who know us. No fluff. If you're on the list, somehow, you have made the cut. Don't stop trying, but don't be offended...
