Few feuds in rock n' roll are as legendary as that of Nirvana vs Guns N' Roses, but now it seems like all of that has come to an end - as Dave Grohl has been filmed rocking out at one of their shows. 

While rumours are rife of the band heading to the UK for massive shows, GnR have just kicked off their reunion tour with most members of the 'classic' line-up - before Axl Rose broke his foot, and played shows sat atop Dave Grohl's now legendary Foo Fighters throne

The loan of the throne suggested that all bad blood had passed between Rose and Grohl, but now that's seemingly been cemented as footage has emerged online of the Foo Fighters and Nirvana man rocking out to the band during a gig in Las Vegas. Check it out below. 

There was a long-running feud between Nirvana and GnR, which came to a climax when the two bands were involved in a punch-up at the 1992 MTV Awards, with Grohl even mocking Axl from the stage. 

"What had happened was [GN'R] were about to do a big stadium tour and they wanted us to come out on the road with them and we just weren't ready to do something like that," Grohl told Jon Stewart n 2011. "It wasn't our scene. So in saying no it blew up into something else." 

He continued: "We were coming from two totally different places. Our whole world rejected that scene as something that was just not real. There were big differences, fundamental differences in what we did."

However, he was keen to add that they were on good terms now: "Anyone that has met any of those guys like Slash, Duff... they're really nice guys.

"After Kurt died one of the first phone calls I got was from (GN'R drummer) Matt Sorum. He left a message and said 'man, I'm really sorry and I hope you're doing well'. I thought that was really cool. They're good dudes."
