Holy crap!  I was just reading about him being on Bruce Kulick's new solo record BK3.  R.I.P. Doug.

RIP!  57 just seems young to me now :sad:

Man did I ever wear that tape out that summer!  I saw them that fall at the University of Houston - they played the entire album and a few covers - show lasted about 50 minutes - fantastic show though ;D

RIP indeed.

Useless trivia: My ex-wife went to high school with THE Sharona.

I saw the Knack on their first tour of Australia way back in 1979.

So is you better half an ex pat or was she just living stateside at the time?  Or is Sharona an Aussie?

First wife was a California girl that I met in Australia while she was touring here as a singer/songwriter.  Sharona was a Jewish girl from LA with a much older boyfriend (ie. Doug)
