 ‘Greg did an excellent job in getting the audience to participate, certainly not an easy task!  Toyota Financial Services

Greg performed as ‘Almost Elton’ at the Applefest Royal Gala Banquet and his show was the highlight of the evening.  His interaction with the audience and ability to do what Elton does so well was outstanding.  Almost Elton is a show stopper and a guaranteed way to WOW the crowd.  I heard many people comment “who needs the real Elton”.   Magdalena VandenBerg – Cellarbrate and Applefest Director

Greg is more than just an MC.  He really took ownership of the event, but not only did he MC, he entertained and was very professional throughout”  NZ Collision Repair Association
