...Right?

replies: text: Right.  I've changed the first mentions to be boldened, not a link, which is the right way to handle subjects of redirects.  Wasted Time R 17:41, 31 October 2005 (UTC)

message: The discography doesn't match the biography. When was Better than the Rest released? Also, was the second album called TG or TG&tD?
I was going to put take the discography from his official website and put it on this page, with seperate pages for each album, track listings and artwork; also I will re-organize the discography to place his first albums first and his newest album at the end of the article.

message: What's a guitar cable? Do you mean capo?
:: A guitar cable is that thing that plugs into a guitar that a retard simply can't figure out.  Yeah, they switched capos.  Do you hear yourself?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.171.176.77 (talk) 03:56, 18 August 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: I read somewhere about the Skip Casto guitarist Bo doing the same thing pretty much same time same place..Georgetown I believe..the event(s) may have coincided or just been the thing to do at the time...the bar scene in Baltimore/Washington was quite the place to be in the day...why couldn`t they just run standard cables out into the street or wherever and switch?173.20.9.234 (talk) 04:44, 13 August 2016 (UTC)

thread_title:  Birthday? 

message: I know they need sources, but it should note him as a slide guitarist in the info box, as he plays slide on nearly every song he is famous for, Bad to the Bone, One Bourbon, One Scotch, One Beer, Move it on Over etc.
Second, it needs to note that his cover of One Bourbon, One Shot, One Beer is a medly of John L's House Rent Blues, and One Bourbon One Scotch One Beer by John Lee Hooker, not just a straight cover of the song.
i'll look for sources later, but i was just pointing this out. 69.136.158.111 (talk) 14:03, 23 September 2009 (UTC)

thread_title:  A few things 

message: George Lawrence Thorogood was born on February 24, 1950 in Wilmington, Delaware and grew up in an unaffiliated community called Naamans Manor.  I should know, I'm his sister.  As long as I can remember, our family has been celebrating his birthday on that date and through the years sending him birthday cards on February 24th and we'll continue to do so until he has no more birthdays!  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 97.100.37.94 (talk) 03:11, 14 May 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  For the Record (pardon the pun) 

message: The history section essentially ends with Thorogood being signed to EMI Records and releasing Bad to the Bone in 1982. It stops dead; what did he do after 1982? Probably not much, but surely there's more to say about him. -Ashley Pomeroy (talk) 18:14, 5 May 2010 (UTC)

message: Much of this section is downright nasty, and possibly libelous, but lacks citations.  This seems to me to be a big problem, but I am not qualified, neither in Wikipedia technology nor in subject knowledge, to do anything about it. -User:ACWilson (talk) 19 October 2014  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Acwilson9 (talk • contribs) 20:06, 19 October 2014 (UTC)
