I think the future is tribute bands, much like Symphony orchestras still play the classics like Beethoven, Bach, Mozart, etc.

Instead it will be The Beatles, Stones, etc. who can create the most realistic reconstruction of what their live gigs sounded like.

Even more obscure bands have tribute bands that do pretty well, an example being “The Musical Box”, which is a Genesis tribute band that’s been around for a long time, or the “Australian Pink Floyd”

I’m partial to the Civil War reenactor guys, both solo acts and small groups. Somehow, for reasons I cannot understand, none of these ever seem to break out and make the charts.

But live performances incorporating the jawbone of an ass beat anything contemporary artists do with electric guitars and fancy studio trickery.

If you liked Chicago (aka Chicago Transit Authority), look up Leonid and Friends on YouTube for a sound that is quite identical.

They also have a female singer who can "do" Karen Carpenter exceedingly well ...
