Sometimes good tips have less to do with service and more to do with a great soundtrack.

For one delivery driver, a shared love of classic rock with an older customer turned into one of the best tips of his career.

Keep reading for the full story!

Got a $40 tip from a dude because I was listening to Boston when I pulled up to his house

This dude was old and told me he liked my taste in music.

Soon, he turned these compliments into cash.

He handed me $20 and I was like “man are you sure? You just made my night” and he was like “here let me really make it” and gave me another $20.

So advice for other drivers: listen to mainstream classic rock and old people will probably tip/like you better.

This happened another time too.

I had another guy comment about me playing RUSH and I got like $8 from him.

Seems like this delivery driver has cracked the code!

Redditors chime in with their thoughts.

Turns out, music provides lots of great bonding opportunities!

Music can be quite nostalgic for many people.

This classic rock fan is practically salivating.

This commenter shares a similar story, this time from the customer’s POV.

Turns out nostalgia tips better than silence.

A little classic rock goes a long way!
