When the band's logo was a silhouette of the lead singer, that was an easy mistake to make.

After seeing them live in the US around the time of their first (American?) album, and seeing the lead singer bopping around in a Moose Lodge hat and cracking corny jokes, I figured if they ever break big Stateside, we are gonna get SO tired of this dude...
