Doug Fieger, the lead singer for The Knack, has died:

I don't think The Knack got as much recognition as they deserved; they were so
much more than "My Sharona", and Bruce Gary was a great drummer (he died in
2006). Check out his and Fieger's performance on "Africa":



RIP Doug.

RIP Doug.
Great band. I loved their sound too, very fresh when they came out.
Kinda a 60's band with a hard clean sound, updated.

RIP!
