Published: Jan. 8, 2019, 3:40 a.m.

Happy New Year, NSTS is back!\xa0

We kick off the year by hosting former Sting guitarist Jeffrey Lee Campbell. Jeff toured the world with Sting in 1987 on his Nothing Like The Sun tour, and he details that whirlwind period of his life in his new book, Do Stand So Close: My Improbable Adventure as Sting's Guitarist. \xa0 \xa0\xa0

Jeff obviously has some incredible stories, and he shares some of them on the show - headlining Madison Square Garden with Sting, his years with the Broadway smash Mamma Mia!, and what it was like to give Jon Bon Jovi guitar lessons. Jeff imparts all kinds of musical wisdom during our conversation, and if you're a music fan in any capacity you're gonna love this chat. \xa0 \xa0 \xa0 \xa0 \xa0 \xa0
