Staind frontman Aaron Lewis launched into a ferocious expletive-laden rant mid-song at fans who were allegedly groping a crowd-surfing teenage girl.

The band were performing at Kansas City's Rockfest over the weekend when the Something to Remind You singer pointed into the masses and told them to stop passing the young girl around or he would get the crowd around them to beat them up.

'Listen up you f*****g a**h***s, that f*****g girl over right there is like 15 f*****g years old and you f*****g pieces of s**t are molesting her while she’s on the f*****g crowd,' screamed father-of-three, Lewis.

Song interrupted:
Aaron Lewis was in full flow before he noticed what he thought was a girl being molested by male fans as she crowd-surfed


Outraged at what he believed to be their lack of respect towards the girl, the rockstar then proceeded to physically threaten them if they didn't curb their behavior.


The angry rant lasted for around one minute before Lewis said,
'Now, girls, feel free to crowd-surf safely'. Which was met with thunderous applause.

The band resumed playing and Lewis tweeted on Monday, 'Not sure how anyone in my shoes would've reacted differently. Just did what my gut told me to do. ALWAYS GO WITH YOUR GUT!'

Music blogger Cassiopia Demers said she witnessed the incident from just a few rows away.

'I think she was a little bit uncomfortable because she didn't really know what was going on,' she said.

Allen Roach, another music blogger said that despite Lewis' threat to cause violence, he did the right thing.

'It shows a lot of character. And I think the fans will see that," he said. "We're starting to see these things as being frowned upon.'

The Kansas City Police Department is aware of the reported molestation, but the girl or her family have not come forward to file a police report.
