"Do we look happy ? !!! Gonna treasure this moment on the plane with @bensonboone - a truly golden 22 year old prodigy," he wrote in the caption of a selfie he clicked with the Beautiful Things hitmaker.

In the snapshot, the 77-year-old guitarist and 22-year-old Boone flashed peace signs and grinned brightly for the camera.
Shortly after sharing their flight moment, the duo treated the festival-goers with an electrifying performance of the Bohemian Rhapsody.
Boone performed the rock band’s 1975 hit during his first Coachella set and closed the gig with his song, Beautiful Things, which shot him to fame.
Notably, the Indio, California rendition marked May’s first performance in seven months after he suffered from a "minor stroke" that left him temporarily unable to move his left arm.
