Thursday night at 7 pm PT, we’re having the social event of the season: Grimecraft’s Kinda Funny Animal Crossing Rave! That’s right, Grimecraft will be DJing a set in Animal Crossing for the Kinda Funny Best Friends. You can watch live -- and catch Greg interviewing Grimey after the show -- on twitch.tv/kindafunnygames. But even better, you can come to the concert IN Animal Crossing. Keep an eye on Kinda Funny’s Twitter Thursday afternoon, and you can find out how to visit Grimecraft’s island and get the exclusive in-game t-shirt.
Thank you to our Patreon Producers: Mohammed Mohammed, Al Tribesman, Black Jack
