RIP Doug Fiegler, we hardly kn-kn-kn-kn-knew ye
Doug Fieger, lead singer of rock group the Knack, died at 57 after a battle with cancer, his brother Geoffrey confirmed today. “I’ve had 10 great lives,” Fieger told the Detroit News in a January interview. “And I expect to have some more. I don’t feel cheated in any way, shape or form.” Get the Knack, the album that featured “My Sharona,” spent six weeks at No. 1 in 1979. The hit single was perhaps best immortalized (or at least revitalized) via a hilarious impromptu gas station dance party in 1994’s Reality Bites. “Can you turn this up please? Please? You won’t be sorry.”
Ga.. 57? I'm getting old.

Wow, +1 on the getting old thing. As cheesy as their lyrics were I always liked The Knack and Burton Averre is an extremely underrated guitarist.
