Pour some sugar on me...let's rock 80s-style

Air guitars at the ready for a Metal Mastermix and My 80s comes from Dan Gillespie Sells

To mark the anniversary of the Monsters of Rock festival, there's an extra helping of heavy rock in the Metal Mastermix. The Feeling frontman and "Everybody's Talking About Jamie" writer, Dan Gillespie Sells, shares his memories of the electric decade and picks his favourite 4 songs for "My 80s". Plus, a romantic request in The Sloppy Bit and Gary revisits a personal favourite for his Bit in the Middle. Expect a mix of classic hit and tracks you might not have heard in years: rock, pop, rap, indie, club anthems, they're all in there.
