about
The Speed Queens of Northern California began in a basement in Alameda, California in the early 80's. They issued a 3 song EP on GlamSlam Records. The song "I Wish I Had A Big Cock Like Iggy Pop" was written by guitarist Keith Drummond, then known as Corky Clyde. Other members included bassist "Frisco" Mike Monko, singer Mike Treece & drummer Eban Schletter. The band went through a few more lineup changes before disbanding in the mid 80's. The band's notorious behavior onstage as well as their fans' occasional outlandish behavior as well got The Speed Queens banned from most clubs in the San Francisco area but they still receive strong airplay on college radio stations and rekindled interest in the band has kept the collectors' price high for the original EP at record auctions.
