Exactly 32 years before you posted your question, on October 17, 1973, the Stones played the best rock concert of all time in Brussels, at a place called Foret Nationale. Pilgrims should go to Foret Nationale!

But they are building a new one. Better location for sure
Sorry to hear that they will close Vorst/Foret, allthough it's indeed a bit run down. I was there recently for a Springsteen show and thought it was a very intimate venue. I still felt the presence of the Stones there! ;-)

Yes, but with a much larger capacity. Wasn't it the double (14000)? We need a place for 7000 people. Where else will we see acts like Bob Dylan? Those artists are at their best in a place like Vorst (as it is now). And he will never sell out a larger venue.
