The thing I hate most about this brand of country is that it's what people think all country is. Country can be beautiful, heartbreaking, euphoric, epic, hard rockin'...anything you want and it can be there.

I just want to say, that as a resident of Caboolture, I feel partially responsible for Keith Urban.

I am really sorry about that.

I live in Saskatchewan, which is pretty much the pickup-truck-with-Fox-Sports-or-Calvin-pissing-on-something-or-if-you're-a-girl-butterflies-or-Roxy-or-some-shit-anyhow-the-point-is-there's-a-decal-or-three-and-probably-a-"wicked-deck"-in-it capital of the world.

I know a lot of people who feel this way.  I think it generally comes with rural areas.  I completely identify with your experience because it sounds almost exactly the same as mine.  I live in south Georgia, United States of America.  Every single night the douchebags you described gather in the local K-Mart parking lot.  They fill up the middle of the parking lot with their trucks and basically do whatever is it they do (drink, smoke, fuck, whatever).  They are exactly as you described them, and they are everywhere in my town.

Exactly and what makes it worse is I live in a city of two hundred thousand people.

We are the capital city of the province and a university town.

It just gets worse the more you think about it.

There's a music festival held about half an hour out of town every year. It was a bad rock fest called Rock'N The Valley for like a decade but it always had middling attendance. Now it is the Craven Country Big Valley Jamboree or something and it was pretty much sold out last year.

the obvious solution to your situation is to start a twee band, and then win your entire province's respect


then they will all wear cardigan sweaters


which they should in the first place, since I  imagine canada is fucking cold

but the music sucks because the keyboards don't have the cold/mechanical sound they had but a wannabe techno sound that it's pathetic for Rammstein standars.

They just wear a bunch of polo shirts. Dress in layers, etc.
