Dave woulda stuck cheatin' Edwards with stiff bill

Charlottesville-based musical superstar  Dave Matthews–- unimpressed that disgraced politician John Edwards and his career-killing paramour allegedly chose Dave Matthews Band's "Steady as We Go" as their song and wanted the DMB to perform at a contemplated rooftop wedding–- would have charged "an incredible amount of money" if he didn't reject the arrangement outright, according to Access Hollywood. The wedding allegations will appear in an impending book by a former Edwards aide who claims the song–- which features a pair of star-crossed lovers and such lines as "So if the road gets rocky, girl, just steady as we go"–- resonated with the cheating ex-Senator and the mother of his love child. When the musical allegations emerged in September, New York magazine examined six songs likely to enthrall the illicit couple; however, "Steady as We Go" missed that list.
