Seether frontman Shaun Morgan confronted security personnel during a live performance after his seven-year-old daughter was removed from the stage area. A fan’s video of the incident captured the confrontation.
Venue security asked Morgan’s young daughter to leave the stage area during the band’s performance. Morgan addressed the situation directly from the stage. He expressed his frustration with the security team’s actions.
“Hey, sorry, that took a little while,” Morgan said. “I had my f*cking kid on the side of the stage the whole entire show, and then suddenly this f*cking a**hole kicks her the f*ck off the stage.”
The singer continued his criticism of the security personnel’s decision to remove his daughter from the performance area.
“She’s seven-years-old, and now she can’t even go in the front of f*cking house and watch the show?” he said. “Man, f*ck you. What the f*ck is wrong with people? She’s a f*cking child, and you just kicked her off the f*cking stage her dad’s playing. I hope your dick is super fucking huge bro.”
Audience members recorded the incident. It has since circulated online.
This confrontation highlights the ongoing tension between venue policies and artists’ family rights during live performances. The situation escalated beyond the initial verbal exchange. It created a memorable moment for concertgoers.
The Mosh reported that Morgan’s daughter was standing side-stage with proper credentials when she was removed by a member of the venue staff. The young child was reportedly visibly upset after the security intervention. This further fueled Morgan’s anger during the performance.
The venue was identified as Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Tulsa. Venue information revealed that it maintains a strict age policy that restricts entry to those 21 and over for most events. This policy creates complications for touring musicians who travel with their families and expect backstage access for their children.
The PRP noted that Morgan also reworked the band’s hit song “Remedy” to criticize the security’s actions during the outburst. He specifically called out the individual responsible for removing his daughter. This improvised lyrical change demonstrated how deeply the incident affected the performer during what should have been a routine show.
The emotional moment has since gained widespread attention on social media platforms. Fans have expressed both support for Morgan’s protective instincts as a father and concern about the appropriateness of his language during a public performance. The incident serves as a reminder of the complex dynamics between artist families and venue security protocols.
