THE TOUR
The "Chain Reaction" concert tour by John Farnham took place in 1990 and 1991 and was a highly successful and iconic tour in Australian music history. John Farnham, an Australian singer-songwriter, had already established himself as a prominent artist with a string of hits in the 1960s and 1970s. However, it was the "Chain Reaction" album released in 1990 that marked a significant comeback for him.

The tour was in support of Farnham's album "Chain Reaction," which became a massive commercial success. The album featured several hit singles, including the title track "Chain Reaction," "That's Freedom," and "Burn for You." These songs became some of Farnham's most popular and enduring hits, helping to re-establish him as one of Australia's most beloved musical acts.

The concert tour kicked off in November 1990 and continued into early 1991. It consisted of numerous shows across Australia, including major cities like Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Adelaide, and Perth. The tour's highlight was undoubtedly the series of concerts held at Melbourne's National Tennis Centre, which attracted massive crowds.

Farnham's performances during the "Chain Reaction" tour were known for their energy, powerful vocals, and charismatic stage presence. He captivated audiences with his soulful voice and performed a mix of his classic hits alongside the newer songs from the "Chain Reaction" album. The tour featured a visually stunning stage production, complete with elaborate lighting, large screens, and backup dancers.

The "Chain Reaction" tour was a commercial triumph, setting attendance records and selling out shows throughout its run. Farnham's popularity soared, and the album achieved multiple platinum certifications, further cementing his status as an Australian music icon.

The success of the "Chain Reaction" tour led to further accolades for Farnham. In 1991, he was awarded the ARIA Award for "Chain Reaction" as Album of the Year, and he also won the award for Best Male Artist. These honors solidified Farnham's comeback and affirmed his position as one of Australia's most cherished performers.

The "Chain Reaction" tour marked a pivotal moment in John Farnham's career, propelling him to new heights of fame and rejuvenating his status in the Australian music industry.
