Line 37: Outside Slipknot, Crahan has founded [[Big Orange Clown Records]], a [[vanity label]] within [[Sanctuary Records]], which has so far signed the [[metalcore]] band [[Gizmachi]]. He also acted as director for, and assembled Slipknot's 2005 DVD, ''[[Voliminal: Inside the Nine]]'', while the band was on hiatus. He also performed with [[To My Surprise]], recording guitar and vocals for the band's [[To My Surprise (album)\|self-titled debut album]]. The band received little interest due to their album being released amidst the success of Slipknot members [[Corey Taylor]], [[James Root]] and [[Joey Jordison]]'s [[side projects]], [[Stone Sour]] and the [[Murderdolls]], respectively. To My Surprise was later dropped by [[Roadrunner Records]]. In 2007, Crahan began performing as drummer for [[Dirty Little Rabbits]]. The band was a supporting act for Stone Sour during their North American tour in Summer 2007,<ref>{{cite web\|title=Slipknot Percussionist's Dirty Little Rabbits To Support Stone Sour\|publisher=Blabbermouth\|date=July 7, 2007\|url=http://www.roadrunnerrecords.com/blabbermouth.net/news.aspx?mode=Article&newsitemID=76314\|accessdate=2007-07-12\|deadurl=yes\|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20081202012318/http://www.roadrunnerrecords.com/blabbermouth.net/news.aspx?mode=Article&newsitemID=76314\|archivedate=December 2, 2008\|df=mdy-all}}</ref> and have released one [[Extended play\|EP]], titled ''[[Breeding (EP)\|Breeding]]''.
