Frankly, bands like Panic and MCR are shit and deserve to be bottled.

50 Cent as well.

Requiem has it spot on, its over £150 to go to Reading or Leeds (+ expenses) you expect to see bands you like being put on, Panic and MCR don't cater for the average Reading festival goer, so the only way to show your disapproval is by showing it somehow, its a tradition which dates back to the ridiculous booking of Meatloaf as a headliner in 1989, Festival Republic understand that if someone is bottled, thats not the type of band to book.

2008 - No bottlings, they booked the right bands and put them on the right days where the people watching would like most of the bands on that stage. My Chemical Romance were put on just after Slayer and Bullet for my Valentine and before Pearl Jam, what do you expect?
