Thought about attending a concert but feel worried that going alone may ruin the experience? Consider Greenworms! Regardless of whether you dance to the beat of the most upbeat pop songs, groove to the rhythm of some R&B, two-step to some country, or are a greasy zipangu enthusiast that probably posts about his favorite idols online, Greenworms make great concert-going pals! I'm sure that, with your Greenworm in tow, any concert of any size at any venue at any time will be so much better than going all alone, I guarantee it!

The most important upside to bringing a Greenworm along to a concert as opposed to another mamono species is the impossibility of the two of you getting separated. The Greenworm's strong claws combined with their small size lets them easily grab onto your clothes and cling to your back, meaning that the two of you can travel in unison. So even if the crowd starts to go a little wild, your Greenworm will be safe and secure, allowing the two of you to stay together. This is a much more effective than simply holding hands to not get separated, and it's something that only Greenworms can really offer! This clinging also has the benefit of being like hugging due to your proximity but much more effective because the two of you are capable of watching the show through your embrace and your movement is not really impaired. These specific physical characteristics make the Greenworm an optimal concert partner!

In addition to having a body that is coincidentally adapted to attending a concert, your Greenworm is also just like any other friend that you may have. Having someone who lives with you and knows you better than anyone else means that you have a friend that knows what kind of music you like, and subsequently you know what kind she likes too. This way, the two of you will be more likely to pick a concert that the two of you like. On top of that, living with someone makes you much more comfortable around them and willing to be yourself out at events like this with her around. You'll feel so much better just knowing that you have someone that understands you around!

Since I won a pair of tickets to a concert by being the 5th caller on DJ Saucy Succ's Morning Show on 69.9, I thought it would be a great idea to take my Greenworm out to one. She was ecstatic when I told her, as the tickets in question were to a concert by her favorite band, Worm Love! an all Papillon, Wonderworm, and of course Greenworm group. The tickets were for right next to the stage with a VIP backstage access pass, so it was destined to be a great night for the two of us! After buying some merchandise before the concert, the show started. The place was packed with all sorts of mamono, mostly insects, and people alike who all were having a great time. The songs actually sounded so much better in person compared to the studio performance, it felt so much more magical! My Greenworm was having the time of her life, swaying back and forth on my back singing along to all her favorite group's songs, which she obviously knew all the lyrics to.

After the performance was over, we got to go backstage and meet the group. My Greenworm was star struck when she met the lead singer, a Greenworm like her, who she found out actually shares many of her favorite foods with! After the show she smiled at me and said how lucky it was that I managed to win those tickets, because we both got to see our favorite band. I told that it really was, I sat by the phone for an entire hour waiting for the cue to call, but Worm Love! isn't actually my favorite band. She asked why I went through all of that just to win tickets to them before starting to blush. "I did it for you, of course, I know how much you love them and wanted to surprise you. Come on, let's go get something to eat, I'm starving!". I thought I heard her mumbling something before agreeing to go eat. What a fun evening! I think that everyone should experience going to a concert, and doing so with your Greenworm will make it all the more fun!
