I had a great time at Bonnaroo this year; I always will. But here are my two complaints: 1. I really really missed the lunar stage from last year where they had a DJ spinning until like 7am. 2. I missed the lack of a techno lineup, period.
Regarding #1, I felt like this detracted from the festival simply because the music stopped around 5am at the latest (and this is because STS9 (who I looooved) started really late. Why not have a late night DJ so the people that still feel like dancing can keep on dancing? If "sound-bleeding" was a problem, there are many ways to mitigate that issue without simply getting rid of the stage. They could have, for example, moved it up towards the What Stage area. Or they could have it near the other tent, and have the last other tent act end around 3, and then start up the lunar stage after that. Those are just two random ideas, but there are a number of solutions. And I do feel like the late night DJ makes for a better festival.
Regarding #2, there were several straight techno acts last year, but that genre was not even represented at all this year. This surprised me given how much of a HUGE hit Deadmau5 was last year.
