Jackyl Bassist Tom Bettini & Vulture Culture’s Chuck Love | Hotrods & Hijinks: EXPLICIT

In this episode of Hotrods & Hijinks at LilyJack Customs in downtown Greeneville, the hosts welcome Tom Bettini (former Jackyl bassist, now with Vulture Culture) and guitarist Chuck Love. Tom recounts decades in music, being signed to Geffen after an Atlanta showcase, touring stories with Aerosmith and ZZ Top, meeting Billy Gibbons and Brian Johnson, and earning Guinness World Records for nonstop performance feats. The conversation covers guitars and bass gear (including Tom’s left-handed, upside-down playing), wild road and promo stunts, and the realities of the changing music business. They also discuss Vulture Culture’s origin, lineup, writing process, upcoming recording plans, song themes, and where to find the band online, plus personal “had enough of” rants and off-topic stories.
