Cosmic Gate, Blank & Jones & Sandra Collins @ Chakra 3/22/07

A lil late but my camera was fucked, got it to work properly..
Arrived at 11:30PM, no hassle at the door - Cosmic Gate was already on.
Full of energy they rocked the joint!

When Sandra Collins came on, she had a really kickass intro...beating heart on the big screen going along with the beat..

Wanted to stay for Rabbit in the Moon set...but had priorities to take care of..regardless, I had a good time!

I thought that night went horrible for the talent they brought. There were max 15 people upfront dancing, 20 in the back next to the bar standing and 40 or so sitting at the tables. It was empty. The vibe was weak and that party could have been amazing. The venue and talent was top notch, but the people just werent there.

I was very amazed my self, there was not a large turnout at all. I have lots of footage from this show which I will soon have up on the website.. Cosmic Gate threw down an awesome set.. Blank and Jones did a good set also but I expected alot more from them... Sandra and Vello were sick live.. Bunny from RITM finished off the night but by the end there was no one left...

Ya I was amazed how shitty the turnout was for this night with all the talent that was there. Me and my girl were two of the total of 15 people actually up front dancing, I had a good time regardless though. VIP for this event was a complete joke, we couldn't even sit down on a couch. Luckily I bitched enough about it to get a bunch of free drinks from the bartender ;D

Sadly, another reality check as to the state of trance in Miami.. imagine that if We had more trance in WMC... would it be like this everywhere for acts like this ? ( Not talking Armin, Tiesto, PvD here )... Just a thought. It should have been packed and a kick ass party

at least you guys had a turnout at chakra...darude had like 10 people who knew who he was...very upsetting, but incredible set

wish i had known about chakra while i passed by and didnt go into it :/

It seems pretty clear to me that the reason that there was such a shitty turnout for this party is because Wetgrooves waited so damn long to announce the lineup. There were a bunch of other good parties going on in Miami that night and personally, I wasn't willing to hold up making my plans until the week before the event to wait for them to announce their "Surprise Superstar Headliners."

This seems like about the worst mistake that a WMC promoter can make. Announce your shows early!!
