=== ''In with the Out Crowd'' (2005β2007) === [[File:LessThanJake.jpg|thumb|Less Than Jake performing in 2006]] {{Unreferenced section|date=March 2016}} After spending the majority of 2005 writing and recording, the band opened 2006 by going on a full U.S. and Europe tour that also featured [[Catch 22 (band)|Catch 22]], [[A Wilhelm Scream]], [[The Loved Ones (American band)|The Loved Ones]], The New Mexican Disaster Squad, Rock-n-Roll Soldiers, [[Damone (band)|Damone]], [[Dropkick Murphys]], and Far From Finished. In April 2006, the band released its four-song ''Absolution for Idiots and Addicts'' EP, with the group's next full-length, ''[[In with the Out Crowd]]'', following a month later on [[Sire Records]]. The album was also issued in a limited edition that came in a leather-bound case complete with bonus multimedia discs that contained [[music video]]s, [[bonus track]]s, and an elaborate photo gallery. In February 2007, Less Than Jake played six shows in Florida that each featured the band playing one of its albums in its entirety, plus B-sides and rarities. The band played two shows each in Jacksonville, Orlando, and St. Petersburg, to be recorded for a possible DVD release. The records performed were ''[[Borders and Boundaries]]'', ''[[Pezcore]]'', ''[[Losing Streak]]'', ''[[Anthem (Less Than Jake album)|Anthem]]'', ''[[Hello Rockview]]'', and ''[[In with the Out Crowd]]''. The group then did the same in [[London]], [[United Kingdom]], in September 2007, playing at the Astoria II for 6 nights in a row. On May 21, 2007, after much speculation, Vinnie Fiorello announced on his blog that the band had asked and been granted its release from its contract with Sire Records and Warner Bros. Following this split, the band released five high-quality (MP3, 320 kbit/s), [[Digital rights management|DRM]]-free, unedited recordings of the band's live shows, taken directly from the [[mixing console]] at each show. These recordings are being released for sale on the band's website via [[Snocap]]. During the 6 Albums / 6 Shows / 6 Nights in London, Chris stated that Less Than Jake's new record label in the UK and Europe would be [[Cooking Vinyl]]. In summer 2007, Less Than Jake embarked on the Shout It Loud Tour, co-headlining with [[Reel Big Fish]] and featuring support from [[Streetlight Manifesto]] and [[Against All Authority]]. During the shows, the band held a spoof of [[The Price Is Right (U.S. game show)|The Price Is Right]], quizzing the contestants on various Less Than Jake "trivia", having them play a few games from the shows, using the games to determine which album the band would play selections from, and giving prizes to the winners. The band reunited with Reel Big Fish and Streetlight Manifesto for a Japan and Australia tour in December 2007.
