bibtex color \bibitem ???

[lilostitch]

hi guys:
I'm writing a slides with beamer, so I want to show the references
in less noticible font,
so I try to use \color{gray} for the bibitem, I first edited the .bst
files, so that the
generated files look like this:

\documentclass{beamer}
\usepackage{xcolor}
\begin{document}
\frame{
asdfasdf
\cite{Blah}
}
\begin{thebibliography}{}
\bibitem[{{\color{red} Blah}}2000]{Blah}
by blah, on blah blah

\end{thebibliography}
\end{document}
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

then it fails to compile,
anybody knows how to get this working? thanks
Y

It works when \protect'ing \color:

\bibitem[{\protect\color{red}{Blah}}2000]{Blah}
