Carnival hit Carlisle as St. Albans' Friendly Fires brought the funk and liquid elbow dancing to the summer's biggest free festival.

The trio, who collected widespread praise and a Mercury Prize nomination for their self-titled debut album, are set to return with follow-up Pala, promised to live up to their impressive live reputation at Big Weekend 11.

    I have to say that I am really dissapointed with the sound quality of this video. Poor Friendly Fires, the Âé¶¹Éç have not done them justice at all. They are a truely brilliant band, but you wouldn't know it from this video. Dreadful work Âé¶¹Éç.

    If you'd left the video running for one more second you would've seen me catch the Maraca that was thrown at the end. Great show!
