New band memebers & is Michael Bland back in ??

Peope who've seen the "Welcome 2 Chicago" concerts can tell; who are the new band members and is there any info on them ? Horn players ?

On the new single "RnR Affair"; is that Michael Bland I hear on the drums ? Any info on that ?

The drums you hear on RnR song is Linn drum,Linn is an old friend of Prince since 1981. Regarding others the only new player is Andre Gouche.horn players are just guests

Im not sure if this is Linn drum programming, could be 'tight' live playing. It sounds very much like MB playing to me (John Blackwell is also an option). His cymbal use, timing in rhythm and fil-ins, etc... of course, im not sure at all.
