N.E.R.D. & John Leguizamo at FYE

     
  John Leguizamo at FYE for Undefeated DVD signing   Chad Hugo, Pharrell Williams & Shay of N.E.R.D. disturb the Rolling Stone magazine staff at FYE  

New York, March 23-24 - Due to noise complaints from an upstairs neighbor, alternative rock trio Marcy Playground had to cancel their in-store performance at FYE at 51st and Avenue of the Americas, and merely signed CDs for fans. The complaints came after the previous day’s in-store performance by white-hot N.E.R.D., who were promoting their new recording, Fly or Die. Turns out the grumbling came from Jann Wenner's Wenner Media, publisher of Rolling Stone and Us Weekly magazines. An FYE spokesperson confirmed that the complaint came from Rolling Stone, and when asked if the music magazine was an immediate neighbor, he replied, “Apparently”. Wenner Media verified that their offices are, in fact, on the second floor of the building at 1290 Avenue of the Americas. Immediately following N.E.R.D.’s Tuesday set, a more sedate John Leguizamo was at the store signing DVDs of his HBO movie Undefeated. No complaints so far.
