Alan comes from a lovely little town just outside Dublin, called Tallaght. It's well worth checking out if you're ever in the area.
Take the 56a bus from the city centre and get off at 'The Square' (which is actually a pyramid, so don't be confused).
Enjoy the fine local cuisine, and perhaps later get a taste for the Irish nightlife at the famous Belgard Tavern (where you might also catch Alan's father singing a song or two!)
Alan is also known as the lead soloist on the Lord of the Rings soundtrack.
Starsign: virgo
Favourite food: popcorn with loads of butter and salt.
