1:30 pm
Mack and Brett (Big) are bringing in J+R Music Whirled featuring Joey and Rory for a special DINOSAUR BIRTHDAY PARTY edition of Macaulay Culkin’s iPod. What does that mean? Much like the party, it’s self explanatory. It’s a birthday party for dinosaurs. 
QUESTIONS YOU MIGHT HAVE:Q: How does one dress for a dinosaur birthday party?A: You dress up like a dinosaur or caveman going to a birthday party. Duh. 
Q: Why would I do that?A: Because there are going to be prizes and contests for everyone dressed as a dinosaur or caveman. Also, why wouldn’t you? It’s a dinosaur birthday party. You’re not above it.
Q: Can I show off my dinosaur or caveman birthday outfit before the party?A: Yes, we’re having an Instagram contest for the best photo of someone creating their outfit. Tag @lprnyc and hashtag your photo #DinosaurParty and we’ll give out a killer prize for the best shot of someone getting ready for the party.
Q: What are the prizes for the Instagram contest and the contests at the party?A: If you know too much beforehand, you won’t have any fun. 
Q: What else is going on?A: There will be face painting. If you don’t dress as a dinosaur or a caveman, you’re face will be painted like a happy dinosaur at a birthday party.
Q: Why is this a dinosaur birthday party?A: Beacause it’s dinosaur’s birthday. 
Q: Will there be appropriate food for dinosaurs?A: There will be dry leaves for the herbivores and mammoth shanks for carnivores.*
* That’s not true, feel free to hunt weak members of a stray herd on the way to the party. **** Don’t really hunt anyone. Eating people is bad. We don’t endorse it.
