Austin Gaule of 1% Productions joins The Mox on the Vulgar Display of Podcast for a deep dive into the world of independent concert promotion, the evolving live music industry, and what it takes to build one of the Midwest’s most respected DIY entertainment companies.

Founded in 1997, 1% Productions has become a powerhouse in live entertainment, producing hundreds of shows each year across Nebraska, Iowa, Missouri and beyond. Known for their independent spirit and commitment to supporting all genres of music, 1% has helped shape the Midwest music scene for nearly three decades, from intimate club shows to massive arena events.

Godsmack guitarist Sam Koltun joins the Vulgar Display of Podcast for a conversation ahead of one of the biggest shows of his career, playing his hometown of St. Louis with Godsmack, Stone Temple Pilots, and Dorothy at Hollywood Casino Amphitheater.

Sam discusses joining Godsmack in 2025 following their European tour, earning a permanent spot in one of hard rock's most iconic bands, and what it means to return home for his first U.S. tour with the group. He reflects on growing up in St. Louis, cutting his teeth at legendary local venues, and the journey that took him from Midwest clubs to stages around the world.

We also dive into Sam's straightforward, old-school guitar setup featuring Gibson Les Pauls and Diamond Amps, why Godsmack remains an unapologetically analog rock band, and what it's like sharing the stage with Sully Erna and the rest of the Godsmack family.

Plus, we talk St. Louis music history, hometown show pressure, life in Los Angeles, toasted ravioli, and why Imo's Pizza didn't make the cut.

For metalheads and by metalheads, this is a conversation you don't want to miss.

Subscribe, like, and follow the Vulgar Display of Podcast for more interviews with the biggest names in rock and metal.
