New Best Friends Axl Rose and Slash are Smiling, Tickling Each Other on Reunion Tour

Well isn’t this just sweet. 

Who would’ve thought that after nearly two decades of no communication and bad blood, Axl Rose and Slash would be on stage together laughing and….tickling each other? That was the case last night in Philadelphia as Guns N’ Roses’ Not in this Lifetime tour rolled on through Lincoln Financial Field. 

During Bob Dylan’s “Knockin’ On Heaven’s Door,” while Slash was taking one of his few solos during the song, a rather jovial Rose ran over and tickled the guitarist from behind before exchanging smiles. In all seriousness, it is nice to see the feud between these two seemingly over as Rose himself seems very pleased with life on stage with Slash and Duff McKagan once again. 

Watch the performance below.
