Oh!  That's John Blackwell, jamming with South Border, on one of their shows in the US.

As most of us know, South Border is currently in the US right now, and they have become friends with a lot of famous artists and musicians, including John Blackwell.

FYI, John Blackwell's wife is a Filipina.  He's actually been here in the Philippines a number of times.  But it's not for concerts; he went here for vacations with his wife and family.

Yes, John Blackwell is a Tama artist.

I reckon that Mr. Blackwell must be just watching on the sides when SB invited him to jam with them.  And since the kit set up on stage was a Yamaha, endorsement doesn't matter at that point.  It's just about getting invited to jam in, and have some fun and make some great music.

Speaking of John Blackwell, I urge you guys to buy a copy of the album The Rainbow Children by Prince. Aside from Prince's genius in making music, supergaling ang lagay ng groove ni John B. dun, di masasayang ang pera nyo, peks man!   :-)
