I always take recommendations from service workers seriously... their suggestions usually lead to some great shows. It is cool how a simple suggestion can turn into a real chat with a stranger. Those unexpected connections are the best part of the day sometimes.

Totally get that. A bartender once told me to watch this weird cartoon, and it turned out to be my favorite thing that year. Those little tips are the best.

Oh man, yes! I had a bouncer at a small club once tell me to check out this obscure band while he was checking IDs, and they ended up being one of my all time favorites. It's like those random people see a lot of stuff and just know what hits. Those little tips can totally shape your taste without you even realizing it. I always try to pay it forward now when I find something good.
