Why John Blackwell is not the drummer from iGene

Sometimes, when you saw Prince stick up his finger, it wasn't for another funky hit from the current band, he was actually docking $1000 from Blackwell's paycheck. Blackwell started making mistakes all the time and doing the same old routine. This is from iGene

highly unlikely. if that was the case, then no one would play with Prince cuz there ain't a single perfect musician out there.

oh and how many times might Prince mess up on a tour? i would wager a couple of times.

Micheal Bland is close to perfection, I can hardly tell you when you can hear him doing mistake.

One day I played two different Act2 show simultaneously, during the first 3 songs both audio were synchronised eek .

Blackwell is a clown, how many mistakes during Prince show? so many...

Where on that page is the info about Blackwell?
