Rumors are flying one week before their only show next Saturday (7:30) at Easy Street Records in West Seattle, that the New Pagan Gods have fired leader Tom Dyer and replaced him with go-go dancer and singer Sheila D. Apparently trouble started brewing at the shoot for “Busybody,” where, according to an anonymous source, it was noted “Dyer just can’t dance.” Sheila D., by comparison, was able to do The Twist, The Jerk and The Temp Slide with aplomb. Matters came to a head over this weekend, when lead guitarist Scott Sutherland apparently refused to attend rehearsal if Dyer was present. Green Monkey Records neither confirms or denies this rumor.
