Velvet Revolver and Guns n’ Roses legend Slash joined none other than the one time richest man in the world Bill Gates onstage in Las Vegas yesterday (January 6).

Gates was delivering his final keynote speech at the Las Vegas Consumer Electronics Show, before he steps down from the top Microsoft job next year.

Midway through, while illustrating the next generation of the game Guitar Hero with his spoof guitar, Gates introduced his ringer in the video game before Slash stepped out onstage sporting his trademark black hat.

Not content with his surprise guest, the multi-billionaire also drew on video sequences featuring contributions from the likes of Jay-Z, Bono and George Clooney.
