I don't think Cans was bad at all. Did you notice Anders Johansson on drums as well? Good him for him to be seen by a larger audience.
A bit the same as Rick Hughes did here on the local version of The Voice, where he was outed soon, but where lots of people outside the metal world who had never heard the name now know him as a solo singer, and also that his band Sword will release its 3rd CD later this year. Here's a an acoustic performance of of a Journey cover with Hughes and a female singer (Andie Duquette) who was also part of the local The Voice show. It was recorded after Hughes was outed from the TV show.
