Don Giovanni Records Showcase
The Don Giovanni Records Showcase is an annual punk rock concert held in or around New York City, New York each year on the first Saturday in February.[1][2] The show is presented by Don Giovanni Records and booked by label owner Joe Steinhardt. The first showcase was in 2008 at Maxwell's in Hoboken, NJ and was headlined by The Ergs!. The showcase has had various homes including Bowery Ballroom, Music Hall of Williamsburg, and the Knitting Factory. Some years, the weekend has kicked off with a DIY show at Death by Audio. While the showcases are mainly bands that have releases on Don Giovanni Records, other bands have been invited to play that are friends of the label.
