Best versions of 2000's tracks live?

Thanks for your time. I've tried digging through PrinceVault. Wondering which concerts might have the best performances of these tracks? Does a piano/microphone style version exist?

1. Colonized Mind

2. Dreamer

3. Breakdown

There are great soundboard versions of Dreamer and Breakdown from Montreux 2013
.
He played Breakdown on the P&M tour but no soundboard version in circulation as far as I know. Decent audience recordings from Sydney and PP Gala Event
.
Favourite version of Colonized Mind is from 2009 Conga Room. Decent audience recording

My favorite "Colonized Mind" is Manchester 2014.

Best "Dreamer" is by far Chicago 2012.

I don't think he ever nailed "Breakdown" live; he's emotional during Montreux, but he's also flat. The solo piano 2016 versions are better.
