Doug Fieger Dies

Post by rickboy88 »

Doug Fieger (The Knack) died on Sunday (Feb. 14, 2010) at the age of 57 after a 6 year battle with cancer. I think at one point it was in remission.

I will include a nice link from Vintage Guitar about him. I saved the story when it first came out.

He was quite proud of the condition of his guitar collection, even ones that he'd use in concerts:

I probably wore out my "The Knack" cassette tape back around 1980.

Thanks for the other sub-forum link (I'm not keeping up with all of the new ones).
