They had not played the song together in 10 years (with Lindsey). But even the rest of the band had not played it live in almost 2 years. Was it live TV? I think maybe they were extra cautious with some pre-recorded tracks. If they kept Stevie's tambourine silent it shows how they really wanted to control the sound.
Its funny because I remember at the time the press asked the band if they were going to have any trouble playing it since they had not played together so long. They said no, they could play the song in their sleep.
I will have to listen to the quote again but I am certain she said "we could not use the Rumours version so had to go to the studio.
Edit: Listen at 1:15 (one hour fifteen, not one minute) when she starts talking about 1992 and Clinton using the song. They sung Don't Stop Live but there was a pre-recorded track they played along to
