Just one announcement was needed to bring madness in many countries in Europe. SM Town Live Tour on june 9th in Le Zenith, Paris. 6000 tickets for the first and concert SM Entertaintment would do in Europe. Taking in account it´s the first time a south korean record label was going to do a concert in Europe fans all over the world went crazy with happiness. SM Entertainment, one of the most influencial recold label currently existing only fueled the desires of the fans for tickets by announcing that five of their actuals ten groups would be performing: SHINee, Super Junior, DBSK, Girls´ Generation and F(x).
4 different types of tickets available depending on the zone: Prestige - sitting/numbered 111.50€, VIP - sitting/numbered 89.50€, Cat 1 - sitting/numbered 67.50€ and Pit - standing/not numbered 51€ . 3ooo tickets would be sold on internet on fnac.com, livenation.fr and ticketnet.fr, while the rest in shops. Starting at 10 am on abril 26th.
That day fans all over the Europe woke up early, turned on their computers and waited for the clock to strike 10 am. One minute after 10 am officially started the madness. Pages collapsed, after just one minute notices appeared: The tickets for this event are temporarly unavailable or The ticket you selected is unavailable. The web pages went crazy. One one try you could find 2 or 3 types of tickets available, but when you selected any kind of ticket you got one of the 2 answers: Ticket unavailable or Due to traffic you need to wait 2 minutes and then we´ll redirect you which meant that you were back on the home page with no entrance.
Days later Super Junior page announced that they were amazed with the sales, Prestige and V.I.P. tickets sold in 4 minutes and the rest in the next 10 minutes. Which means good for them and bad for the enormous number of fans that couldn´t get a ticket after hours of trying, crying and prayings. There were some very lucky fans who managed to get a single ticket after trying without stoping for hours.
Dissapointment could be found all over Europe. Fans decided to meet and to manifestation about this situation. They asked for a second date.
