Country superstar Morgan Wallen recently addressed the incident of allegedly throwing a chair off the roof of a Nashville bar on his X account, nearly two weeks after his arrest. In a two-part response, Wallen expressed his regret, stating, “I didn’t feel right publicly checking in until I made amends with some folks. I’ve touched base with Nashville law enforcement, my family, and the good people at Chief’s. I’m not proud of my behavior, and I accept responsibility… I have the utmost respect for the officers working every day to keep us all safe. Regarding my tour, there will be no change.” -MW
Wallen was arrested and jailed on April 8 for allegedly throwing the chair off the sixth-floor roof of Eric Church’s newly opened bar Chief’s, located on Nashville’s Lower Broadway. Reports indicate that the chair landed just feet away from two Metro Nashville police officers. Wallen was arrested and booked just after midnight, charged with three felony counts of reckless endangerment and one misdemeanor count of disorderly conduct, and posted a $15,250 bond for his release in the early hours of the morning.
Wallen’s attorney, Worrick Robinson of Worrick Robinson Law, confirmed the arrest, stating, “At 10:53 p.m. Sunday evening, Morgan Wallen was arrested in downtown Nashville for reckless endangerment and disorderly conduct. He is cooperating fully with authorities.”
This incident occurred shortly after Wallen kicked off his 2024 One Night at a Time tour. The tour is set to resume at Oxford, Mississippi’s Vaught-Hemingway Stadium. Wallen’s next court date regarding the incident is scheduled for May 3, with performances planned at Nashville’s Nissan Stadium on May 2nd and 3rd.
Chief’s official Instagram account responded on April 9, sharing a photo of a new sign outside the nightclub that read: “Our pigs fly, our chairs don’t.”
