I emailed Alison's board moderator about the possibility of more dates & this was his response:
 
 We've learned never to say never (oops just broke the rule twice) but at this stage, it looks pretty much like it - those 4 locations.
 
 Disclaimer 1: Thats not to rule out if these shows took off like a rocket, there could be other dates added....but...
 
 Disclaimer 2: Don't hold off thinking there might be other cities round the proverbial..and miss out
 
 Hope that helps!

I've been wanting to see them for awhile, has the RnR (or area) become any safer for parking / traveling solo? Most people have told me to hold off on seeing shows there...Unfortunately, most shows I want to see as of late are there. [/b]
Ive went alone a dozen or so times.  Not the best area, but you're not going to get murdered...most likely [/b]
I've walked from Union Station a couple of times, never had a problem, but isnt a walk in the park either...

I've driven there on my own a few times on my own and never had a problem with people or parking or anything.  I go out there every weekend, have friends who live there, and none of them have had any problems in the multiple years they've lived there.  Get over it.

Just go early and park on H St.  You'll be fine.

I posted the info based on the Ticketmaster page for the event.  The listing has since been removed, so I'm not sure if it has been canceled.  But it was there, trust me.
 
 FTI, Eddie Izzard added a second DAR date.

also really easy to take a cab from the union station metro, AND safe...they are around at 2am too...it's like $17 but if you are with friends not bad at all to split.
