Dinosaurs, Danny Weinkauf at LICM This Weekend

Remember the Syd Hoff story, "Danny and the Dinosaur"? The kid would sure enjoy the Long Island Childrens' Museum's (LICM) new exhibit, "Age of the Dinosaurs," opening this weekend. 

To celebrate the event, the LICM in Garden City has invited Danny Weinkauf and his Red Pants Band for a pair of performances on Sunday, January 23 (11:30 am and 2 pm). Due to pandemic social distancing, advance tickets are advised. You can purchase them from LICM by clicking here.

If you're not familiar with Danny Weinkauf, he's the bassist for a bunch of newcomers called The Might Be Giants and has released a full hand's worth of his own CDs for kids. Expect to hear science-oriented tunes like "I Am A Paleontologist" and "Dinosaurs on Roller Skates" (which fits the theme but is not completely jurassic-truthful).

Here is the video for the band's song, "Etymology":
