if you use the property "AppendDataBoundItems" set to true, you can specify the ListItem in the aspx page. The ListItem taken from the database, will be added below. In this way you can add values that are not present in the database.
<asp:dropdownlist appenddatabounditems="true" ...="" xmlns:asp="#unknown">
<asp:listitem text="All" value="" />
</asp:dropdownlist>
