Memory Train : the 1973 Paris- Brussels.

In celebration of the RS Euro 2018 Tour and how times have changed; in 1973 when the Rolling Stones European Tour "by-passed" France due to Keith 's problems with the French justice, a train was organized for the French fans(500), sponsored by Radio Luxemburg, to come to Brussels. Here is an amazing video of that exceptional event in rock and roll history, for those who haven't seen it before.

This appears to be a version without the live footage from Brussels first. There's a version with a couple of minutes B&W pro shot footage of Brussels.

That is really cool. The stage was very small and the Forum was packed. Those shows are considered among the greatest the Rolling Stones have played in their long and amazing career. Fantastic!
