No, it's not sold out, only the floor is. It's simple, there's no promotion. And Bon Jovi as never been as much successful in France as in the rest of Europe. A lot of people think that this band doesn't exist anymore and that it's a kind of reunion tour.
A Parisian rock radio (so not even national!!) is offering tickets for the show. Bon Jovi has never been on their playlist...or maybe in the 80s/90s. I hear the record company begging for some promotion. Sad, really.
And maybe the high prices is another reason. When GNR came in 2006 it was sold out. They come back in september. Prices start at 49€. Last time Bon Jovi came in Bercy, it was in 2001 and it was not sold out. They come back this year, prices start at 62€.
