Live FILE - In this Aug. 27, 2019 file photo, Country singer Morgan Wallen poses for a portrait after getting a mullet at Paul Mole Barber Shop on , in New York. Wallen wasn't allowed to compete at this month's Academy of Country Music Awards because the singer was caught on camera using a racial slur earlier this year, but he's one of the top nominees at the 2021 Billboard Awards. (Photo by Charles Sykes/Invision/AP, File) NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WZTV) — Whether it's Garth Brooks or Miranda Lambert, they have a big neon hanging sign outside their establishment, welcoming you in. However, country singer Morgan Wallen will not be getting his name in lights outside his new Broadway bar as Metro Council members say his actions come with consequences. The council members voted no Tuesday night to allowing Wallen's very own neon sign to go up outside his bar. Thirty members voted against the signage while only three members voted in favor of it. There is nothing wrong with the sign, and it meets all zoning regulations. This comes as the Wallen is accused of throwing a chair off Eric Church's downtown rooftop bar Chief's. The chair landed about three feet near Metro Police officers, and Wallen faces three counts of felony reckless endangerment and one count of misdemeanor disorderly conduct. Now, some Metro Council members are calling him a bad ambassador for the city of Nashville, saying this is why they do not want his name hanging outside the Broadway bar. Metro Councilmembers Jordan Huffman went as far to say Wallen's actions and past comments should not be applauded. "He gives all of us a bad name," Councilmember Huffman said. "His comments are hateful, his actions are harmful and he don't belong in this town as far as I'm concerned. I'm tired of this city bending over to just make anybody happy that makes a comment that they want to. We continue to go down this road." Councilwoman Antoinette Lee said Wallen showed "harmful actions" when he allegedly threw the chair from the six-story venue which is why she voted no on the bar's signage.

"And out of respect for everyone in this room and for everybody in this city, I have to vote no.” Wallen's venue " This Bar and Tennessee Kitchen " will still open during Memorial Day weekend, but will not have neon signage after council's vote. The new bar will be located at 107th 4th Ave. North. As for Wallen's recent arrest, he is expected to appear in a Nashville court this August.
