Someone on that YouTube page has posted that Dylan did this number in Brixton, London.

If so, that means a modest sized venue called the Brixton Academy, where Dylan did indeed play a week long residency in 2005. That room is only a mile from where I live, but I didn't go to the shows, having had my own rather disappointing Dylan live experience a year or two earlier.

Here is an especially feeble review of one of the Brixton shows. It doesn't mention London Calling - but then it doesn't tell us much at all...:

(I've seen Joe Strummer do London Calling when he was playing support to The Who. Good enough for me! :D )

Cheers - C

originals are always better than covers and it was some bootleg someone uploaded

Yeah, that's usually true.
Though I prefer Clapton's version of Knocking on Heavens Doors over the original by Gun's 'n Roses.

I saw Bob back in '93 and it was a pretty decent show. At the end of July, I'll be seeing him again at the Durham Bulls (think the movie) ballpark w/ Willie Nelson and Mellencamp.

The original was by Bob Dylan

I hate it when someone thinks the cover is the original
