The Shins aren't as cute as they appear.

Somehow I missed this yesterday, but NME reports that Marty Crandall of the Shins and his ex-girlfriend (and ex-America's Next Top Model contestant) Elyse Sewell were arrested in my backyard (Sacramento) over the weekend. They were both brought in on charges of domestic violence after starting a row at their hotel that got so bad the hotel staff had to bring in the Sac Po. Both sides of the altercation have been spinning the event, either through Sewell's blog or via Sub Pop Records (for Crandell's legal side). Not the prettiest of stories for the modern rockers...

It's too bad you missed it when it happened over the weekend, Erik, because she wrote on her LiveJournal that she was stuck in Sacramento for a few days and asked if anyone was free for a blind date.

That could have been you!

This is really funny! The Shins are already cracking under the rock pressure!

ChrisB @ 1: Ha! Well, my gf might not have been too pleased with that idea, and heck, most of the Sacto area was out of power anyway. What a weird Central Valley weekend.

NO CHARGES FILED

For either person in this case reports Line Out via a Portland Mercury exclusive.

Well good ... glad that everybody made happy here. Or at least less not happy.
