Biffy Clyro: Big Weekend set was 'extra special'

Biffy Clyro say that their headline set at Radio 1's Big Weekend in Londonderry has gone "straight to the top" of their festival performances.

The band, who have played previous Big Weekends in Preston and Bangor, topped the bill on Saturday night in Derry's Ebrington Square.

Bassist James Johnston admitted that it was nice to play a smaller gig after touring arenas around the world.

He also revealed that Simon Neil's voice had recovered after they were forced to cancel a string of US gigs earlier this year.
