← Back to Original Article Mexico: High-profile entertainers power new Cancun nightclub February 1 2, 201 3 | By Rosemary McClure Three former "Saturday Night Live" comedians plus soft-rock Air Supply musicians will spice up the night at the Moon Palace Golf & Spa Resort in Cancun, Mexico, where expanded entertainment opportunities include a new nightclub named Noir and performances by internationally known entertainers. The all-inclusive mega-resort, which has hosted Shakira, Jon Secada, Enrique Iglesias and Usher, is to feature performances by "SNL" comics Jon Lovitz, Chris Katten and Tim Meadows on Saturday and Sunday. Air Supply guitarist Graham Russell and lead vocalist and songwriter Russell Hitchcock are to appear March 22 and 23. Resort guests receive complimentary tickets to the shows. Noir, the resort's new $2-million nightclub, was conceived by French designer Francois Frossard and inspired by the film “Tron." The club's onyx tone is offset by alabaster sofas and deep-cushioned booths. "Every year, Moon Palace strives to provide our hotel guests with the ultimate all-inclusive experience," said Gibran Chapur, executive vice president of Palace Resorts. "There is something for everyone at Moon Palace, from our new wave simulator to our brand new nightclub." The resort is on Cancun's south shore and has more than 2,400 water- and garden-view rooms or golf villa suites. There are two children’s pools, 27 holes of golf, a golf club pool, six Jacuzzis and four swim-up bars. The property also includes 15 restaurants and nightly entertainment at 16 bars and lounges. All-inclusive accommodations start at $171 per person per night, based on double occupancy.

After each performance, they would perform as a duo in pizza parlors, coffee bars, and night clubs quickly gaining a reputation for great harmonies and for original songs that Graham was constantly writing. With a demo cassette of two songs (“Love and Other Bruises” and “If You Knew Me”) in hand, they shopped it to every record label in Sydney. CBS Records admired their style and signed them, the duo made a single in one afternoon which shot to #1 on the national charts. From there, Air Supply was born. The duo immediately began touring, opening for Rod Stewart across Australia and throughout North America. They return to Australia after the tour and made the album Life Support, which included the hit single “Lost in Love.” The single went Top 10 in Australia and found its way to the desk of music industry executive Clive Davis. Clive immediately signed them to Arista Records and, in 1980, “Lost in Love” became the fastest-selling single in the world. The follow-up single “All Out of Love” went up the charts even quicker. Seven top 5 singles later, Air Supply had equaled The Beatles’ run of consecutive top-five singles. Their albums – Lost in Love, The One That You Love, Now & Forever, and The Greatest Hits– have sold in excess of 20 million copies.
