While Elton John might not be performing as much anymore, he still makes appearances from time to time after his immense, three-year farewell tour that started in 2018. The tour was intended to consist of more than three hundred concerts around the world, but many of the dates had to be canceled or rescheduled in 2020.
John has also reunited with creative partner Tim Rice to create music for the live-action “The Lion King” remake since he also did the music for the original animated film.
Bono Today
Bono is still rocking late into his career and life. He, along with the rest of the band, has been making guest musical appearances on talk shows such as “The Late Show With James Corden” and others. Bono is almost as well-known for his activism as he is for his music, and he often assists humanitarian groups in various forms.
He's performed in numerous benefit concerts in order to support these causes. His philanthropic efforts have become so widespread that he's met with Presidents, Prime Ministers and has even become an honorary knight by the late Queen Elizabeth II.
Elton John
As a pop culture icon and unforgettable musician, Elton John got his start in music early in life when he played the piano. He began his musical career at the age of sixteen, and his rise to worldwide fame occurred when he released famous hits like “Tiny Dancer” and “Rocket Man.”
His tribute song to the deceased Princess Diana, “Candle in the Wind 1997,” was originally for something else, but he rewrote it and it went on to sell over thirty-three million copies worldwide. It's the best-selling single in the history of the United Kingdom and the UK singles charts. His flamboyant style has also helped him stand out.
Noel Gallagher of Oasis
Starting in the nineties, brothers Noel and Liam Gallagher found huge success with their band Oasis. They turned out a couple of smash hits, “Wonderwall” and “Don't Look Back in Anger,” but their contentious relationship began to dominate the news about the band much more than their music.
They finally broke up in 2009, right before they were supposed to perform at the Rock de Seine festival. Noel stated that he simply couldn't work with Liam a day longer. How bad must it have been for two people – brothers, even – to never want to work together again?
Noel Gallagher Today
Noel went on to found a new band called Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds, finding success away from his brother. Noel announced the band in 2011 at a press conference, and the same year their first album came out. The band's second album, “Chasing Yesterday,” came out in 2015.
Their third album, “Who Built the Moon?” came out in November of 2017, and that year they also headlined the “We Are Manchester” benefit concert, which helped to raise funds following the terrorist attack that happened there in May. For the last few years, they've been releasing EPs with new material.
