Reviews of Crocodile Mock

    5/5

    Having worked with Iain on a number of occasions I can say he is a pleasure to work with. In my previous roles as Venue Manager and Sound Engineer at The High Barn in Great Bardfield, we have booked Iain, AKA Crocodile Mock on two occasions. Both gigs were sell outs! As Elton John, Iains repartee with the audience is fantastic, music played is flawless. The band he hand picks is simply stunning to hear, and watch. They play all the favourites and more. Far from sticking to the simpler songs, expectations are fully met and as all good entertainers he leaves the crowd wanting more! We did have Crocodile Mock booked for a third time but due to the venue being sold we were unable to put this gig on!


    5/5

    Iain Court performed his Elton John tribute show 'Crocodile Mock' for us at Moonlight Bay in Lanzarote for 15 months. Our venue was sold as an excursion by all the major British Tour Operators and Iain´s Elton John tribute was a major part of this show and he received very good reviews. His uncanny vocals and superb interaction with the audience always left people very happily entertained.
