Hall of Shame | Reading & Leeds Festival 2015
Reading & Leeds Festival 2015 is kind of low on female music acts. Really low. Take a look at the full poster on the right, and then take a look at the poster on the left showing only the female acts:

A line-up like this makes it look like the organizers behind Reading & Leeds Festival don't think too much of women making music:
Out of 93 listed acts on their poster, only nine are female. NINE. That brings the gender ratio of the Reading & Leeds Festival 2015 promotional poster to a whopping 90% male acts and only 10% female acts. Come on, Reading & Leeds Festival, you can do so much better than this.

encourage Reading & Leeds Festival to do better:
