Live version of Temptation?

Does a live version of Temptation exist? Just wondering. I love that song and seeing it live would have been awesome. I know he didn't tour for ATWIAD, but thought maybe he played it later in other tours.

The intro was played on guitar a few times in 1994 and 1995. Check the Stars and Bars boot for example...

Not the complete song (abbreviated & improvised), but it sounds great!

And there is Live footage from the PR Tour with Temptation (Syracuse 1985)

Princevault says no. I'm not near my copy of DMSR, but I do know the title alone made an appearance on the Purple Rain tour (as did a couple of other songs being played in the piano segment). He even mentions it on the Syracuse VHS.
