if you don't want an as-prepend you can influence your next-hop AS by
doing a MED. it is applicable if you're connected to the same service
provider but if AS1 and AS2 have direct physical connection that talks
BGP you can use MED using "bgp-always-compare-med".
another thing is "community" attributes. just ask your service provider
for the set of "community" attribute("private commmunities") that they
created aside from the "well-known" communities to influence their customer's
policy.
