PINKY is recognised as Australia's leading Motor Show Announcer (Street Machine Magazine - September 2002).
A former representative motorbike racer, PINKY, has spent over forty years in the Entertainment Industry. Not only has he appeared on stage, he has worked in Radio, Television and the Club Industry. PINKY is also a LIFE MEMBER (#118) of the Australian Entertainment Industries prestigious MO AWARDS. The highlight of his past career, (a six week tour of New Zealand, as Compere Comedian, with four Penthouse Pets in 1984. He claims it was a 'hard' tour).
PINKY's
high profile
style of announcing means maximum exposure for all sponsors to a virtually
unlimited number of people at events. Estimated at over one million motor
orientated people per year.
PINKY is Australia's
only full professional full time Motor Show Announcer.
PINKY utilises the
microphone to maximum advantage, ensuring people listen to what he has to say.
His powerful, yet pleasant voice, has been praised many times over. Not only
from the public, but also promoters, and more importantly, trade sponsors and
trade presenters.
"His enthusiastic delivery was enough to get spectators and rodders alike interested in the action, no matter where they were in the complex, and they wandered over to watch. It's one thing to simply announce that an activity will be taking place at such-and-such a time, but to have a professional announcer giving a running play-by-play of the event really brings in the spectators. Pinky did an outstanding job all weekend."
American Street Rodder Magazine. September 1997
Pinky, Thanks for the excellent service you
have provided during the years at the Hot Car Titles. The event was so much more
professional with your skillful announcing. Not only are you a true
professional, but both Kathy and I are proud to call you a mate.
All the best,
Paul & Kathy Beck

Sylvia Franklin. Organiser. Caravan and Camping Supershow. Rosehill Gardens. NSW 2003.
"Gordon 'Pinky' Fellows – probably the best announcer on the show car scene today".

With a background of over forty years in all aspects of the Entertainment industry including Radio, Film, Television and Club work.
PINKY has the expertise, talent and skills to ensure maximum exposure for all parties involved in all types of show presentations.
Motor Shows, Hot Rod Shows, Motor Racing, Drag Car Racing, Boat Racing, Drag Boat Racing, Motor Bike Racing, Rodeos, Agricultural Shows, Special Events, etc.
PINKY is the "Golden Voice" of the airwaves.
Seeing a gap within the Special Events Industry for a Professional Announcer, PINKY has highly tuned his talents, to presenting quality shows, at all times, and ensures he abides by his belief, ‘that every show is his first one’.
Unfortunately, many shows are spoiled by ‘amateur announcers’, trying to assist. They lack the ability to communicate to the public, what is on or what is happening. Articulation is very important and again many major events are spoiled by monotonous, one level voices, or worse still, someone who loves to hear themselves on the microphone.
PINKY utilises the microphone to maximum advantage, ensuring people do listen to what he has to say. His powerful, yet pleasant voice, is praised many times. Not only from the public, but also from the promoter, and more importantly the trade sponsors and trade presenters.
A former representative Motor Cycle Racer, (Speedway, Short Circuit and Scrambles, now called Moto Cross), and a Life Member of the prestigious MO Awards, (number 118). PINKY has worked in all aspects and theatres of the entertainment industry.
PINKY has worked at most major entertainment venues on the Eastern seaboard of Australia and has also toured New Zealand, due to his multi talented skills.
With over fifteen years experience as Morning/Drivetime Announcer on Radio, PINKY has the warmth of voice, and the happy go lucky style which has endeared him to many.
Ask PINKY how good he is , and he will answer, “I’m the best”. this is not an egotistical statement, but an honest belief in his own capabilities. Better still, don't ask PINKY.
