Heartland

Don't have a clue either, haven't been there before TBH. Koen, Iz?

Crap - they never had an opening act on their Belgian shows - indeed catching the last train will mean missing out on the last part of the show ...

tickets for sale at ebay (not from me)

(and only 1.99 euro right now...)

There's loads of bars/cafés to visit within crawling distance from the AB. A nice café is El Metteko(Anspachlaan 88 ), between de Beurs/la Bourse and the AB. An old school style place with mirrors on tha walls, darkbrown colours, wood all over & a very mixed crowd . You can have a drink or some nice things to eat too... I kinda like it

Another groovy place (for the slightly high brow kinda cats) is the Falstaff. Legendary in the sixties when it became thé hangout-place for the beat generation. Art Nouveau/Jugendstil all the way and apparently there's a gateway to another dimension over there... which is cool Today it's mainly visited by elderly people who get their coffee . Still worth a visit (but pretty expensive!!).

If you go in one of the streets right across the AB (on the opposite side of the Anspachlaan that is), there are loads of nice & cosy pubs, cocktailbars and what more.

Well, do what ya like with this info... I'll probably be too late for the pre- gig thingies anyway...

It is indeed a lovely place, with a nice service and lovely design (ain't it Horta, by the way?) I went there for a drink with our gig, but on a Sat night, it becomes quite crowdy with a lot of posh 40-years-old and their dates/secretaries/whatever.

But it is a good place to have a drink and a snack, while not being expensive (at least not more expensive than the rest of Brussels), AND it is within a minute of the AB (just around the corner, in fact, next to the Beursschouwburg)

For me, I fear there will not be a meeting beforehand, as we are with the Gang from Lier. We go straight in. We don't muck around.

Falstaff is okay with me, though I like to be in on time as well. I'll be around in the early afternoon I presume.

You'll recognise me

Just got back from Brussels

The setlist was the same as the Paris gig except for "Will I Dream" who was not played


During “Dominion�, there was a technical problem and stopped singing for a moment during the first part.

The guitar work from Benn during "We are the same Suzanne" was really rocking!! So was the audience.

Also there was a lot of smoke (maybe too much). I was on the first row and during parts of the show they were really unvisible, but I didn't mind. The sound was pretty good, although ' voice was sometimes not so clear. Maybe the audience was singing too loud so he couldn't be heard at times.


My girlfriend also got the plectrum from Benn, which was
