I told myself so many times that English people were so lucky with 4 or so shows every tour !

Yep, France has always been a tough market for Bon Jovi. Even at their height, they couldn't play any outdoor venue there in the mid-90's. However, up until 1996 they had at least played Paris once or more each tour, after then it got really patchy though. Probably because it was hard to find promoters who were willing to come up with the fee for a band that wouldn't sell well.
