Musicology "Automatic"?

I saw that Prince played this song during one of the Musicology shows. Is the audio circulating at all? I'm curious about how it would've been played. If not circulating, can anyone who was at the show describe it? Was it longer than the rendition he played during the One Night Alone...Tour? Was it mixed with that one song like in the ONA...tour?

I also want to know about the Musicology tour rendition of "Something In the Water (Does Not Compute)". Did he play it similar to how he plays it today?

Purple Music is my drug and I'm jonesin!!!!!

I dont know about automatic but I used to have a bootleg double cd set of the musicology tour 8/10/2004 ( the show that I wanted to go to so badly since I won tixs to the previous night) in atlanta,ga and something in the water (does not compute) was part of medley of songs that he did on the acoustic guitar. he did about two verses and then went into "warner bros used to be a friend of mine. now, they are just a monumental waste of time" rap, I think.

I don't recall him playing it on the Musicology tour, but if he did, it would most likely have been an impromptu part of the acoustic guitar set.

U got me excited just thinking about this. I would love to hear automatic live and even acoustically that would be kinda cool.
