So whilst I have been talking about how much I desire Dusk (and wish her to come to my Rhodes Island), I have been fully aware that the chance of actually getting her is 0.8% per roll and hence never really held out actual hope. Mostly I was content with getting both Chongyue and Lin and felt like I'd gotten my resources worth. Though that hasn't stopped cleaning myself out of orundum and throwing everything I get at the banner juuuust on the off chance. Then suddenly:

^_^.

I mean yes I know, she's not actually that good relatively speaking, Splash Casters are inefficient and my Mostima with her reduced cost that I already have levelled would be much more effective, but still; Dusk just has that special something.

I mean:

Top tier waifu behaviour without a doubt.

ACME Comic Con 2022

I want to start this post off with a quick apology for the delay in getting this post up on the site, you see I was fortunate enough to be granted a press pass for myself and my team to cover the event. This was a big milestone for me, as it made me feel valid as a content creator and journalist. I had such an amazing time over the weekend, and I was so excited to share my thoughts on how ACME Comic Con went. Unfortunately, right after that weekend I was beset with a variety of personal troubles which has meant that this post is going to end up going up closer to ACME’s Rai Con event in November than this one in September.

Anyways, prior to them dropping their Manchester and Glasgow events from 2021 going forward, myself and the majority of my team were regular attendees at MCM’s Comic Con Scotland (in Glasgow). We always enjoyed these events, although I have my issues with them as well, which I’ll elaborate on later. So it was a welcome surprise to see that ACME, who have previously hosted Rai Con, an annual Anime & Manga Convention, which takes place every November, were throwing their hat into the ring so to speak, and taking over the slot which had previously been held by MCM Scotland.

On January 4th 2011 Scotland lost one of it’s most talented singer songwriters Gerry Rafferty.

Rafferty was born in Paisley, Scotland in 1947, the son of a Scottish mother and an Irish father. His father was deaf but still enjoyed singing, mostly Irish rebel songs, and his early experience of music was a combination of Catholic hymns, traditional folk music, and 50’s pop music.

By 1968, at age 21, Rafferty was a singer-guitarist and had started trying to write songs professionally, and was looking for a gig of his own. Enter Billy Connolly, late of Scottish bands like the Skillet-Lickers and the Acme Brush Company. Connelly was a musician and comedian, Billy was already making a name for himself with Tam Harvey in the guise of the duo The Humblebums, after playing a show in Paisley, Rafferty approached Connelly about auditioning some of the songs he’d written. Billy Connolly was impressed not only with the songs but with their author, and suddenly the Humblebums were a trio.

The Humblebums were a success touring in Scotland and the University circuit down south but Rafferty began develop a distinctive style as a singer-guitarist and songwriter, and this eventually led to tension between him and Harvey-the latter exited in 1970, the group continued for another year before Rafferty noticed that Connelly’s jokes were taking up more time in their concerts than the music he was writing. They parted company in 1971.

Rafferty then joined forces with his old school pal Joe Egan forming Stealers Wheel, the band were beset with legal difficulties from day one and despite the success of the single Stuck In The Middle With You nothing after else clicked commercially, and by 1975 the group was history. Gerry’s legal wrangling continued for three years until in 78 he was able to release his solo music and the excellent City To City album. The album surprisingly only reached number six here but number one in the US Billboard Charts.

The song Baker Street reached three in the charts in the British charts and spent six weeks at number six in America. Barbara Dickson provided backing vocals on the album. Night Owl followed up City To City, I think it was a better album than his first but Rafferty hated touring and this affected sales, it only reached number nine here and 29 in the states.

He continued to record but the hits dried up perhaps due to his difficulties in battling alcohol abuse, after the death of his brother Joe in 1995 it worsened. Conflicting newspaper reports had him living everywhere from Tuscany in Italy to Southern England and Ireland, at one stage he was staying at a London Hotel but during one four day binge he was asked to leave, he then booked into St Thomas’ Hospital suffering from a chronic liver condition, brought on by his heavy drinking.

Two years later he was again admitted to hospital, this time the Royal Bournemouth Hospital, upon admission he was put on life support and treated for multiple organ failure.

He rallied for a short time and it seemed he might make it but died at his daughter Martha’s home in Stroud, Gloucestershire, on this day in 2011 of liver failure.

Rafferty never reached his true potential but left us with enough songs to show us a great talent, the song I have chosen is When I Rest which may not be as famous as some of his work, but I like, it was the B side of Sleepwalking.

When I rest When I lay down I got to call on you.

When I sleep When I don't wake up I got to call on you.

Don't let me hide, Don't take away me pride Remind me of everything that I don't wanna know Speak to my heart Help me make a start Don't leave me out here with nowhere to go.

When I'm lost When I'm blind I got to call on you.

When I cry When I break right down I got to call on you.

Don't leave me blind, don't leave me behind Don't leave me here to dream my life away I'm out in the rain And this world's insane Don't leave me here to waste another day.
