The Show Must Go Off!

Live concert DVD series

Live concert DVD series

The Show Must Go Off! is a live concert DVD series produced by Kung Fu Films, an offshoot of the Kung Fu Records label, which began in 2002. The producer was Vandals bassist Joe Escalante. As of 2005, the series featured at least 19 "episodes". The series features punk rock and pop punk bands from various eras – from older groups that were popular in the 1980s and 1990s, to more recent acts.

The series title The Show Must Go Off! was first used for the recorded performance by Mest at the House of Blues, which was later re-labeled as "Episode 2" in the series, while the Vandals Christmas DVD released in 2002 became known as "Episode 1."

In later installments, numerous special features were incorporated into the DVD releases. Episode 9, The Vandals Live at the House of Blues was recorded using eight cameras, including a "Josh Freese cam" with a picture-in-picture close-up of the drummer's foot-pedal. The DVD also included optional subtitles for the lyrics, and commentary from band members.
