Nashville bar owner Joey DeGraw‘s not happy about Morgan Wallen‘s alleged rooftop bar antics, ’cause while the tossed chair didn’t hit anyone … it could still ding the city’s booming nightlife scene.
Joey and his brother, singer-songwriter Gavin DeGraw, know all about Nashville’s Broadway party scene — they own one of the strip’s hot spots — and he tells TMZ … he’s annoyed Wallen allegedly chucked a chair from the 6th floor because it could’ve seriously hurt someone.
JD says he’s not worried about Morgan and his drinking — in fact, he thinks the incident might help his career — but he is worried about how it might impact tourism on Broadway, Nashville’s main attraction attraction.
The DeGraws’ bar, Nashville Underground, is one block away from Chief’s — where Morgan was Sunday night — so, the brothers have a vested interest in people coming to the area … and feeling safe when they do.
To be clear, Joey says he didn’t see the alleged incident, but says chucking furniture off a roof is, obviously, a dumb choice … no matter what Morgan’s circumstances turn out to have been.
He’s preaching good bar etiquette, and whether you’re a celeb or a normie, Joey says throwing a chair off a pal’s roof just isn’t polite — referring to the fact Morgan is friends with Chief’s owner, Eric Church.
Despite it all, Joey says Morgan’s still welcome to check out Underground sometime … though he jokes they might have security tail him to avoid any potential trouble.

As we reported … cops arrested Morgan after they said he tossed the chair off the roof at Chief’s. The really strange part is we got photos of him happily chatting up a young lady on the rooftop … moments before the chair went flying.
Morgan’s been booked for 3 felony counts of reckless endangerment, plus disorderly conduct — and while it should go without saying, Joey’s recommending all Broadway revelers leave the bar furniture alone.
