We go again, every Thursday morning. - At 44 years old, Gav is handed his first ‘report card’ since high school in the shape of a “Damnation 2026 Performance Review” he didn’t ask for.
So how did he fare? Why don’t women and his fellow Scots love his festival? Why are profits down when revenue is up and what can he do about it in 2027?
It’s all in the pie charts, graphs and percentages, apparently.

We go again, every Thursday morning. - The Production Manager, an almost mythical creature found back stage stressing about about “patch” engineers and impossible changeover times.
Who are they and why are they so important to the running of our events?
Thankfully, Marios of Damnation, Outbreak and Radar fame is in hand to attempt to explain it all, from “recharges” and “dead spots” to risking his life for the game.
Pay attention.

Well, today we're here to tell you.
