Deacon Blue
The answer this time is, they're still going strong.
They did split in 1994 but re-formed in 1999 with a reunion gig, then a new album, "Walking back home".
They appeared at The Homecoming Live Final Fling Show, at Glasgow's SECC in November 09 and headlined Glasgow's Hogmanay on 31 December 2009 and the Liverpool Echo Arena, on 29 July 2011
Ricky Ross, Deacon Blue's frontman released two solo albums during the time the band were apart. He had a solo album before the band originally formed and is still working on his solo career now as the band only play as Deacon Blue on a part time basis.
Formed in Glasgow in 1985 they were one of the top selling bands of the 80's and 90's, with seven top twenty albums and seventeen top forty hits.
Though only a part time band now, I'm sure there's a lot left in them.
