RIP Doug Fieger

The band that made me want take up drums, and the song that gave voice to every teenage boy’s frustration. The band was written off as a one-hit wonder, but what a hit!

Doug Fieger died yesterday at 57, after a long battle with brain and lung cancer. Drummer Bruce Gary died in ‘06.

It’s still mildly mind-boggling that his brother was Jack Kevorkian’s lawyer.

And I sure wish I could find a live link for the Art Brut/Knack mashup “My Sherona Formed a Band,” which is stupid in an awesome way.
