Mini Club Med's 40th Birthday Party

Thanks to everyone who took the time to visit the Club Med site and vote for their favorite new Milkshake song written for Club Med to celebrate the 40th birthday of its family-friendly, kid-centered Mini Club Med. Milkshake was asked to compose a new theme song for Ixtapa Pacific, Club Med's newest family resort in Ixtapa, Mexico. After weeks of online voting, the winner is "Dance in the Sun." As a thank you for voting, Club Med is offering "Dance in the Sun" as a free download. While on the page you can download "Luna Azul," another song Milkshake wrote inspired by a children's book about Ixtapa Pacific. "Dance in the Sun" and "Luna Azul" are also included on a special resort-only CD of Milkshake music.
Milkshake visited the resort for concerts and sing-alongs April 9 - 14 celebrating the big birthday. It was an amazingly fun time we won't soon forget. Says Mikel from Milkshake, "We made some wonderful new friends, held starfish and blowfish in our hands, tried out our French and Spanish, watched the sun rise and set, made some great music and danced in the sun, having a quite magical time. While we were there, we filmed some footage we hope to turn into a video. We'll keep you posted. "
Milkshake played two energetic concerts at Ixtapa Pacific April 11 and 13. Kids, parents and G.O.s "Danced in the Sun" and apparently all the dancing pushed up the temperature.
Says Lisa, Milkshake lead singer
"The Friday show and Sunday shows were very fun and tropical. Everyone was so sweaty from dancing, when I poured yellow confetti out of my Bottle of Sunshine, it stuck to them!"
Unfortunately we have no photos of the concert goers clad in yellow confetti...
but here are some of the concert.
