I guess it's the curse of having an elegant fashion line, but it seems people are worried about what to wear to Deep Sanctuary. I understand this. Mana even tweeted that if people have MdM shirts they could wear those.
Last time, there were a number of older Malice Mizer fans. People who don't normally go to MdM concerts. There were less people wearing Moitié and more wearing regular clothing. Which is fine. I am sure Mana appreciates seeing his fashion, but not everyone can wear it or afford it. Here's is my photo of people waiting in line at the last DS
The important thing is everyone feels good. It's about the music really.

Sakura uploaded these photos on his Instagram last night https://www.instagram.com/p/BmLUIBmlgOJ/?utm_source=ig_twitter_share&igshid=1s08xgp8jx7c0
And then Mana posted this one on Twitter https://twitter.com/M_d_M_official/status/1026794535785979904 (purple filter in use)

In the mountains.
Sakura just got the kit together so this was the first time these three got together to practice that they mentioned. They can do it without a bassist. Mana's and Közi's parts are the most complicated, and having someone to keep the beat helps. Sakura has to get use to them and they to him and from what was written it went extremely well. It's not like it's new songs everyone has to learn.
This is a lot sooner than last Deep Sanctuary's practice sessions. Also they are probably getting set up for the three singers to practice. I hope we get photos from those also.
I'm curious how they are going to divide up the songs with three singers. Perhaps one for each era? I can see Shuji doing Tetsu era songs, Hitomi for Gackt and Kamijo for Klaha. I'm taking in account their vocal ranges.

Yeah same
Not a problem. I'm not so fond of Instagram, but because I use Tweetdeck for Twitter, it's good. I like being able to organize what I want to see. And Yu~ki posted a little something for his birthday
Twitter's algorithms give me cancer....
This may call for my private reserve of Basil's Brew...
Also, many thanks for unearthing Yu~ki's tweets ethereal! It's good to see him still keeping his hands busy and crafting such lovely oddities (I wonder if he's familiar with the works of Roman Dirge?)
Using Tweet deck defeats their algorithms... The other secret is not to use their translation. It tends to throw in random profanity. Obviously someone is messing with the translations by changing what certain words translate to.
Another trick if you want to see tweets in chronological order is to create a Twitter list and then view tweets using that.
Yu~ki's Twitter is @Mother_of_Life_. He rarely tweets and only follows two people, Közi and Mana. Which is sentimental.

Barks has an interview with Mana and Közi about Malice Mizer and Deep Sanctuary

I am gobbling every bit of it down! No issues with translation this time! (except for a few colloquial phrases here and there)
Good spoting! Going to give it a read ^^
Yeah, I follow all of them and folks like KAMIJO etc...but I just don't really have the energy for Twitter...lol
I have read this interview about three times because there is a lot in there. Remembering back to being there when everyone was singing Au Revoir, it really was an amazing thing to be there and to participate. To read that this inspired them to do more for this Deep Sanctuary. And remember last year when Mana was on Twitter writing about songs to perform? Well he really was working on the set list then. And apparently he did ask both Gackt and Tetsu to perform but they both have stuff already scheduled. From what I've read about Tetsu, he actually is a rather busy performer. The other one...well.
No further comment.
I'm pleased to hear Tetsu-san is doing so well these days. I think he really found his niche post-MALICE -- not to discredit him as their singer, but Goth didn't really seem his bag even in those days...
This is fantastic 
Best part is "That mustache band"
You never can tell just what will make the biggest impression XD

Mana and Yu~ki were tweeting about "beard and roses" the other day in birthday tweets. Now it makes sense, including Yu~ki's mask photo with the fake mustache. Silly guys.
There was more about getting Kami's drum set. Apparently most of it was donated to the school there and was used by them. But part was still in the family storehouse where Mana found it. I had hoped Mana would say more about their obtaining it, and he did.
