I thought that was one of the biggest Festivals in the world. Why would HV be headlining when they aren't even popular enough (well in the States)to play mid sized venues. They have no hits and an album that fell off the charts. I haven't listened to them enough to know if I like them but it just seems like they aren't established enough to headline a Festival the size of RIR.

I agree with you. RIR is the biggest festival in Portugal and has around 70-100k visitors per day (happens once every 2 years) but is still far away from RIR Brazil numbers (around 200k).
The final lineup will be announced on Feb 10th (fingers crossed!) - there's still missing one band for that day.

They are also headlining Rock in Rio (in Lisbon) which is one of the GNR rumored shows this year. It would be awesome if they share the same stage
