Sense of Beauty

-Reita’s equipment & mic stand was there but they played his pre-recorded tracks

- They will not be getting a new bassist, & will use Reita’s bass and equipment for any future songs

- They plan to continue with no hiatus, next live is 9/12

- When they played Tomorrow Never Dies, & there’s that quiet moment where Ruki asks if everyone is listening, he looked up to the ceiling to ask if Reita was listening 😭

- When Aoi, Ruki, and Uruha came to play/sing at the front of the stage together, Aoi kept a space open between himself and Ruki

- They were very conscious of leaving Reita’s space open for him, until the very end when they all held hands and didn’t want Aoi to be alone

Full live report coming later!

Edit: they just posted the set list

Today, I saw my bro in a dream, and when I told him the things I wanted to say and punched his knee, he cried.

But he tried to play it cool and pinched the inner corners of his eyes and looked up at the sky.

What are you, some kind of trendy actor?

I told him not to worry because he’s still with us.

I think I was crying. For some reason I was driving and he was sitting cross-legged in the backseat.

the GazettE Will Last Forever🤟

Reita, we'll love you, and we'll miss you so much 😭

A part of my youth has temporarily left.

It's weird knowing that he won't be here with us anymore.

Thank you for being born and thank you for appearing and letting me know you in the days of my youth.
