message: Altered the link "England|British" to "United Kingdom|British". Important not to confuse 'England', 'Britain' etc. as Great Britain is made up of 3 countries, and linking the word Britain to 'England' would cause offence to any Welsh or Scots, as well as confusing the meaning, something which I spend a lot of time fixing on articles.

message: What is the origin of the name foghat?  (I am thinking of Bender's color choice of foghat grey). --WhiteDragon 13:19, 29 November 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: It is, I believe, a hat.  On the cover of "Fool for the City," the man with a fishing pole fishing in the sewers is wearing a fog hat.  It is a yellow slicker hat that is lower on the sides than the front and back.  Imagine the pulled down "Napoleon" hat but made out of yellow raincoat, with no bill.  It's a hat that a lighthouse keeper would stereotypically wear.  (I wonder if Wiktionary has the word?)  Geogre 13:05, 5 January 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: How weird... for decades I always thought it was a play on "fuck it" or "faggot".  Interesting to see there's a real story behind it. -Rolypolyman (talk) 21:58, 15 September 2008 (UTC)

message: Does anyone else think that the pop culture references to Slow Ride in the Trivia section could be moved into the article on the song itself since most of them are already mentioned there? I suggest in their place a pointer to that article. Tctwood (talk) 10:18, 8 September 2008 (UTC)

message: C'mon guys.  We've all had the radio on as kids.  I can't remember anything of any significant playtime, certainly not of "hit" status, other than Slow Ride.  In full disclosure I personally do think Foghat is horribly overrated, but I do believe that my observation here is objectively correct.  Foghat really was a OHW with Slow Ride.Tgm1024 (talk) 19:14, 23 July 2010 (UTC)

message: To follow on somewhat from the above comments.  I am neither a fan nor enemy of this outfit, but the present article is full of unsourced fancruft, hear'say and whimiscal adultation; and devoid of sources, verifiability and balance.  Can someone turn the tide from fansite to encyclopedia ?

message: Please: Doesn't somebody have a decent picture of the REAL Foghat? Charlie Huhn?? No offense to him, but Foghat is LONESOME DAVE, period. Charlie Huhn is a footnote. Please, somebody find a post a decent picture!  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.80.112.230 (talk) 17:54, 13 March 2011 (UTC)

message: I just bought the older (1998) single disc version of the live album Road cases and wanted to know how I can add it...or if someone else can! There is also a 2 disc European version I am planning on getting.

thread_title:  Live album Road Cases 

message: I have fixed the membership section to show Rodney O'Quinn as a LIVE SUBSTITUTE for Craig MacGregor. I had previously put Jeff Howell as his live substitute based on recent live videos I have seen of them but after examining them it appears that O'Quinn is in fact their full time substitute (at least at most shows). He is listed in the "Touring musicians" section on the Foghat page as Craig MacGregor is still listed as an official member of the band on their official website and he will probably rejoin them on the road if he is able to overcome his illness. O'Quinn is not an official member of the band so he should not be shown anywhere in the band's infobox. MacGregor is still officially their bassist.
