Last week was the seventh anniversary of the Las Vegas shooting when a 64-year-old man opened fire on the crowd at the Route 91 Harvest music festival from his 32nd-floor hotel room.

Jason Aldean was performing when the shots rang out, and he and his band immediately ran off the stage to safety, without warning the crowd.

Some people criticize him for that because the shooter was unloading more than 1,000 rounds, which ended up killing 60 people and wounding at least 413.

Jason says the accusations that he was acting cowardly or selfishly TICK HIM OFF . . . because he had NO IDEA what was happening.

He says he had people in his ear, yelling at him to get off the stage.

“[All] something’s wrong . . . so I’m just getting out of the way.”
