The Musicology/Hawaii03/Australia03 performance is looong, and dare I say it, one of my favorite performances of the song! The guitar is there, the beat, the keyboards, the horn arrangement is tight. Fantastic version.

Favorite might be at Fillmore before the Musicology Tour.

That show is great. I just saw it for the first time recently and hearing live versions of the early stuff that I had never heard live before (like "Dirty Mind") blew my mind.
