Influences Fave albums are by Soundgarden, Jeff Buckley, Miles Davis...... I dig stuff by Peter Gariel (early Genesis), Lamb, Beastie Boys, Beck, Led Zep, Carol King, Peter Skellern, Simon and Garfunkel, DJ Shadow, Oscar Peterson, Deftones. My tastes are diverse, and change from day to day Sounds Like People compare, and as can be predicted, I'll disagree. However, I reckon if you like Damian Rice, David Grey, John Mayer, Dave Matthews, mixed in with Ben Christophers programming, maybe Ben and Jason, Nick Drake, Tom Baxter....... you'll like my stuff!!!

( view more ) [ View All Blog Entries ] About Alistair Cowan In the studio, I play all the instruments, (though on the latest album, there was drums and programming from Mark Richardson of Feeder, and Wayne Riches of Skin, on one of the tracks). My brother Angus co-produces the material. We both engineer and produce. Live, until recently, I've been playing solo, with occasional backing vocals from Holly Morland. In the past 6 months I've been playing with John Blackburn (Skin) or Tim Jackson (Gem) on bass, and Wayne Riches on drums, with Holly bv's. It was with this line up I played Guilfest 2005 on the Uncut Stage. When I haven't got a band available, I'l play along with a sequencer, or simply acoustic on it's own. Till now, I've used a nylon strung guitar as my instrument of choice, though for the next album, I may make the move in part over to the steel string...... who knows!!!

THE REVIEWS SAY............ "A L I S T A I R C O W A N Why Can I See Stars 320Ex-Redwood frontman launches a solo chiller. A more beautiful collection of beautifully constructed tracks you'd probably be hard- pressed to find among all the albums released this year. Breezy, spacious and airy tracks like the acoustic guitar-led Bird In The Sky, Baby Don't Cry and Morning Sun float along like fluffy clouds in a summer sky. Elsewhere Long Way To Go dances along on a Latin rhythm, and Saying Goodbye (one of three 'bonus' tracks) highlights the craftsmanship of Alistair Cowan the skillful. singer-songwriter. Written, produced and arranged by Cowan (who plays all the instruments), Why Can I See Stars is a tailor-made soundtrack to sitting on a sun- kissed beach while staring out at the ocean waves, or simply chilling on an effortless summer Sunday afternoon.Marvelous. (8/10)." Paul Henderson, April 05 ,Classic Rock, national magazine. "Why can I see stars?" croons singer/songwriter Alistair Cowan on his first album since British song-based rock band Redwood split in 2000. Because sometimes he is so desperate that Nitrous even seems worth doing at the end of the night? Because brawls are a common occurrence after his seven pints of wife-killer? No no no. This is a sweet wine-swilling, acoustic-driven musician from Surrey who is praised for his wide vocal range and subtle dulcet tones. Why else would he be singing so delicately about seeing stars if it wasn't because he had just met the girl of his dreams? Fans were disappointed when Redwood went their separate ways five years ago, but can now take comfort in the fact that at last frontman Cowan is back with a very satisfying solo album. Its pop-folk at its simplest and sweetest and he certainly doesn't hold back in taking this opportunity to lull listeners with his delicately tender voice. But its not just the pleasing surface sound that makes Why Can I See The Stars stand out from other simple drum-backed offerings. Just ask similarly-situated Louis Eliot whose hideously drab solo album The Long Way Round made fans question if Rialtos brief moment of fame was anything to do with him at all. The ten prettily crafted tracks on this endearing album don't ignore the more serious or comic situations in life. Easier To Smile flits around the subject of domestic violence, while Big Night Out dryly jokes on the partying to be had on three pounds. Cowans storytelling is charmingly personal and adds a much-needed layer to wrap this offering up comfortably as an album of substance. Even if machismo stands between you and Alistair Cowan, its hard to believe that behind closed doors his unassuming charm wont provoke a moment of tranquillity in the most vigorous of opposers. Single Bird in the Sky is sure to creep up on you sooner or later in true Beth Orton style and embed itself in your psyche before you even notice its mechanics.If this album had arms, surely it would stroke you." Charlotte Lyon, http://www.musicomh.com "The intimate cellar bar plays host to the two acts tonight, one, as advertised, is Hipslinky, the other is their support act Alistair Cowan a singer songwriter and friend to the band. Its always a worry when you come to see a band and are confronted by an unexpected support act, but in this case it was a joy. Witty, emotional and powerful, Alistair and his songs mix qualities from Tracy Chapman to Eric Clapton (in his more introverted stages) and even vocal hints of Eddie Vedder. There are songs about wife beating, leaving home and of course, love. Alistair was joined by Holly, an attractive and beautifully voiced "friend" who added depth and passion to the two tracks she sang on. One of the songs, Stay, added a country vibe to the predominantly pop-folk set. Where as Record Collector would have slipped seamlessly into a Northern Soul bands set. With the right mix of style and content Alistair is perfectly suited to the current singer/songwriter scene and could possibly shine above the rest."

They say there's nothing new in fashion and it's true.. styles constantly repeat themselves. Even today's hip-hop style has been done before. Saggy pants? Done in 16th century France during the 'sansbelt' period. Heavy gold and diamond jewelry? The Spanish conquistadors were there first. Doo rags?, hats on sideways? Pirates have been there, done that. Heck, I bet even the old carriages had spinners on their wheels. The rules of this contest are thus: show us today's big bling, hip culture as seen thru the eyes of yesteryear's classic artists. Have fun, be creative!, keep it clean, follow the guidelines please, be careful to avoid using cliches . You have 48 hours to submit so make them sparkle!

That was wild. #4 -- The nasty nacho 1 nacho with strips of all the sauces. It left my mouth as quickly as it entered.

Jan. 3rd, 2006 @ 08:18 pm As you probably know, today was my first day back at school. Here's how it went: Woke up at 6:45am Bought an Ice Cap. My addiction has returned Found room for VB programming The halls were somewhat cool, but the classroom was incredibly hot VB was a joke. I have next week's homework done already. VB ends, SAAD is also in this room SAAD is one BORING class, however, there are a few hot 3rd years in there. 2h break. ate pizza watched a few ATHF episodes MCOS (linux course). Ted and I pwn the class. They're all newbs. I think I know more than the teacher, but I'm not too sure. Head to the last room for C++. We have Devi, whom I hate. It was stupid b/c she has a bad accent and it's hard to understand her Wait for an extra hour for Cory's bro to come pick us up (his brother has a class that runs 1h later than ours, so it's easier to go there once to pick us all up) Went to Mobile Computing to see about getting a new keyboard for this POS. $62.10 later, I have a new keyboard Watched more ATHF Span of day: 8:10 - 5:00 ( 1 comment | Leave a comment ) Jan. 2nd, 2006 @ 11:30 pm Oh, and I also say styphon and violate at Taco Bell.

All he was missing was a big cowboy hat, 'cause we all know that every Texan with an accent wears a cowboy hat. /stereotype ( Leave a comment ) Dec. 31st, 2005 @ 09:19 pm also, my dad yelled at my dog to get off the couch, and in doing so, he broke my headphones.

I sat through the christmas assembly which was alright. They've gone way downhill since I started there, though. My grade consisted of several different bands and such which made it fun.... I sat behind bright_on_dark but didn't realize it was her until later. (I loved your hair btw). Then I met up with _monroeville_ and we went to subway. That was fun. I left Subway to hitch a ride with my mom (Who was at the school to get my brother.) At the top of Anderson's hill, I saw my bro getting into the van. I ran like no tomorrow and thanks to traffic, I caught up. It was a fun run. Tonight I work 5:00 - 11:30 (diningroom close) and tomorrow I'll be working 12:00 - 6:00. fun.

" In a teaser for his show, Letterman jokingly said, "Marry Me, Oprah," which Nestler rapidly deduced was a message intended for her." Because CLEARLY there's no ACTUAL woman in the world named "Oprah ... "" especially no really famous talk-show host. Dumbass lady. ""Oprah had become my first of many code names," she wrote..." I wonder if "other code names" consists of "Jennifer Lopez" and "Martha Stewart"?

DVD REVIEW: TERROR TRAIN 09.24.04 By Doug Healy BUY IT AT AMAZON: CLICK HERE! STUDIO: Fox MSRP: $14.99 RATED: R RUNNING TIME: 97 Minutes SPECIAL FEATURES: Trailer Like so many of you out there, Im quite a big fan of the 70s and 80s slasher films. Theyre the kinds of films that so many of us ages 25 to 40 grew up on. While there are few kids out there that could even sit though a great picture like The Seventh Seal , let alone understand and appreciate it, slasher films were often the kind of fun and exhilarating movies that although forbidden by most parents, found their way into the VCR when you had friends stay over, or when your folks were asleep. The mix of jump scares, bloody killings and inevitable nudity made some of these movies the forbidden fruit of film for many of us. Thats certainly not to say they are all classic films, or even that most of them are well-made. For every Halloween or Sleepaway Camp there were plenty of Slumber Party Massacre or Friday the 13 th Part 3D films to make sure the bar was held pretty low for slasher flicks. So where does Terror Train fit in the slasher film oeuvre? Well, youre obviously going to have to read on in order to find out (you didnt really think I would tell you in the introduction, did you?). Now we know why Diane Keaton wears gloves all the time. The Flick In order to properly set about the mystery of whos going to be killing lots of people later on in the picture, Terror Train opens with the inevitable prank gone wrong. The boys of Sigma Phi Omega fraternity are having a party and trying to get some the loser freshmen laid for the first time. Doc (Hart Bochner) convinces the pathetic virgin Kenny (Derek McKinnon) that his girlfriend (Docs, not Kennys) Alana (Jamie Lee Curtis) is ready to take one for the team. Of course, seeing all of Docs friends around him laughing into their jackets, we get that Kenny isnt going to enjoy this first experience. Alana doesnt quite know what shes getting into, but plays along anyways. I wont spoil what happens, but rest assured, Kenny gets embarrassed, lots of other kids show up to laugh at him and he goes crazy. Cut to a couple years later, and all the pranksters are now seniors, getting ready for the biggest party of their college years. Theyve rented out a train for New Years Eve to throw a huge costume party filled with shitty bands, cheap booze and loose trim. Alana is no longer with Doc, as shes still pissed off about the severity of the prank they played on Kenny. Apparently, Kenny was shipped off to a mental hospital, and she feels pretty bad about it. She has a new boyfriend, who also happens to be Docs best friend and is best friends to fellow Sigma Phi frat-whore, and current Doc play toy, Mitchy (Sandee Currie). "Quiet, guys! I think I hear a train coming" Were introduced to the line-up of stereotypes at this time as well: theres the black guy, Jackson (Anthony Sherwood) and the only other black person at the party, his girlfriend Merry (Vanity, before she was Princes cock sheath). Theres the jolly fat guy, the other jolly fat guy, and enough meatheads and blonde groupies to fill a Motley Crue concert. Oh, theres also the mysterious magician, played by a Perry Farrell-looking David Copperfield. This was the first warning to go off when I was watching the movie. As a general rule, I think that magicians should be offered up to Quetzalcoatl, but even that seems too nice for David Copperfield. What a smug prick he is. However, in this film he fits nicely, as his job is to play the smug prick of a magician. It works nicely. Theres not really much more to get into concerning plot; the party starts and people start getting picked off one by one. In an odd stroke of coincidence, everyone involved in the shaming of Kenny seem to be the ones on the sharp end of whatever pointy object the killer is using. Billy Shived was always the life of the party. There are generally two types of slasher film: dark, serious movies which are meant to scare you after youve left the theater, such as Halloween , and campy slasher pictures, that while offering up jump scares, are really meant to have fun and laugh with, such as April Fools Day . Terror Train really tries to be on the darker side of the spectrum, which makes sense when you have the scream queen of the era headlining your film. For the most part, this works. Directed by Roger Spottiswoode (of good films like Shoot to Kill and awful films like Stop! Or my Mom Will Shoot ), there are some tense situations, especially toward the end of the film, and the moving train setting provides a sense of claustrophobia, which always goes a long way in horror films. Jamie Lee is in typical form here, offering up lots of crying and screaming. Though there is something about her in this movie that doesnt work with me: shes not hot. While slasher films were intriguing to me as a kid, they cant compare to the loin-tingling passion I had seeing Jamie Lee Curtis on screen. I aborted more children onto the carpet in front of my parents entertainment center watching her in Trading Places than all the teen prostitutes in L.A. In Terror Train , though, shes got scraggly hair, nasty-looking teeth, and the pirate costume she wears to the party means that we dont even get to admire one of the greatest figures that God ever placed on this Earth. In fact, this movie has almost no random nudity. Theres a quick flash of some nasty cans, but thats about it. Gene Shalit's review - "New Year's Eve on the Terror Train? More like my clone is suave as hell! Oh, shit, that doesn't rhyme." Before you purists get on me, Im well aware that in 1980, the slasher film hadnt yet devolved to the point where it needed to have naked women in every other scene. I just feel it necessary as reviewer to let people know what to expect. Some people like the skin-laced horror film, and for their sake Im letting them know ahead of time that if naked women are important to their viewing pleasure, theyll be disappointed. The movie is not quite as obvious as that plot outline makes it out. For those who watch these types of films, and are paying close attention, the identity of the killer may become apparent to you about of the way through the film not bad considering the obviousness of some of its brethren in the slasher genre. The costume party sets up a realistic way of getting the killer into all sorts of odd masks and helps keep us confused, if only for a bit. Where was George W. Bush between May 1972 and May 1973? Shoveling coal on Satan's personal train, that's where. An interesting note: movies like this (at least those not directed by David DeCoteau) dont often have a homosexual undercurrent, but Terror Train doesnt shy away. Its pretty obvious that Doc would love to run away with his best friend, Mo. Not important to the movie, just a tidbit. I liked this movie even more than I thought I would. Its not a campy, laugh-as-you-go horror film, so dont be expecting that and I think youll enjoy it too. Its not as brilliant as the film it takes so many cues from Halloween but it is solid, nonetheless. 7.0 out of 10 The Look The movie is very dark, though this is done purposefully. Its a lot harder to figure the killer when you cant quite see whats going on. The transfer is okay, and purists can take note that contrary to rumors, Spottiswoode didnt add Ewoks to the scene in the snow. 7.0 out of 10 "Christ Morty, whatever happened to foreplay?" The Noise The music fades in and out sometimes, and the dubbing doesnt always match up with the speed at which theyre talking, though you can understand everything. 4.0 out of 10 The Goodies A trailer. 1.0 out of 10 The Artwork Jamie Lees visage and the terror train about to be stabbed by Gene Shalit.
