Jeez, it was a one off cover of a Gaga song. It was bound to suck. It put it in the same category as when the GD did Frozen Logger, Revolution and Stir it Up. They were horrendous.
Frozen Logger is more of a little tuning between songs ...like funiculi funiculi or merry go round. ..or at least that's how it was done in Chicago 10-21-71.
Lady Gaga and The Beatles arent In the same 'Iconic' category at all.imo or Bob Marley for that matter. Now had the Grateful Dead covered Madonna back in the 80s I could see your point.

Bingo! I thought the Deep Ellum Blues was rather enjoyable. Just that and not much more. A Happy hour two drinks in kind of thing.
I just want everyone to know that I've cross posted some of the comments that have been made on this site about Bob Weir today over on Ratdog.org and those people are not happy.
Gaga is really friggin' talented, and Million Reasons is a really good song. She's about as relevant as it gets in today's music, and she spans genres.
I don't get your point, Greg. It was okay for the GD to butcher Beatles or Marley songs, but not Gaga? Or, is it that you don't know the Gaga song, so it was them butchering a random song and just playing shitty?
I never agreed thst the dead butchered any beatles or bob Marley. You claimed that bri. I just don't put Gaga anywhere near those classic iconic bands that GD covered. My point that im making is lady gaga is closer to the likeness of 80s madonna, who was never covered byGD.
Butchering her song...well that's not what im saying. maybe you would be happy if the dead had covered 'holiday' or 'vogue' in the 90s, I would see your point. But they didn't. So I don't.
As for the dead covering the Beatles I loved every one...never once through the years have I thought the butchered any beatles song...especially Revolution!
As Thom said, having fun. Every time (in the link above) they muffed the lyrics or Bobby pulled a Bobby, the crowd cheered. They were laughing, the crowd was laughing. It was fun.
JUst like it was fun for Bobby and Trey to whip out a random Gaga tune.
Good lord, you're complaining about a version of a song that they had never played, probably never rehearsed, and appeared spontaneously out of a jam?????
Like I said, remember when it was all about having fun?
I wasn't complaining. I loved that Stir it Up, simply because it was fun. I was making the point that it could be a mess, but still be a great time - same point you were making.
