The Mixology of Rock

Figured this is a good spot for "should've written that down" ideas... And therefore a good spot to start our theoretical drinks for the stars book. Just hope no one bogarts it. Hmmm... The bogart...?

I seem to recall:

The "Tom Waits"
Shot of gravel
Fill shot with 1 part grain, 1 part vodka
chase with live cigarette butt

I was thinkin... should these be theoretically "doable" shots? Like:

The "Tom Waits"
Fill chilled shot glass with crushed ice
Pour in cheap vodka until 3/4 full
Top with dash of grain
Light with cigarette
Toss back whole shebang

Note: Keep grizzled hobo-friend nearby to administer Heimlich or extinguish flames as necessary.

Modification:
Simple shot of room temperature rotgut.
Not that I'd want to, but at least it doesn't involve eating building materials.
