Riding on the success of the previous two tours Elton John and Billy Joel once again hit the stadiums. The tour had previously only toured in the United States, but this time they visited Australia, New Zealand, Japan and Europe, avoiding the United States.
On 6 June, Joel pulled out of a concert at Wembley Stadium in London, England due to illness. John performed the show without him, but he performed several of Joel's songs. The same happened in Zurich, Switzerland at Letzigrund Stadium on 30 June; this was the last night of the 1998 tour.
Joel stated in 2012 that he would no longer tour with Elton because it restrains his setlists.
