Cry Cry Cry opening for the Amazing Kreskin, a high school auditorium in 
Northern New Jersey on a frigid Dec. 31, 1998.
Cry Cry Cry (Richard Shindell, Dar Williams, Lucy Kaplansky) played a lengthy 
set that included a couple encores. Ticked that his opening act had played 
for so long, Kreskin "predicted" backstage that "Cry" (as he called them) would 
"be no more" in a year. Upon hearing Kreskin's prediction, Cry Cry Cry 
accompanist Billy Masters flung open the back door, letting in a woosh of cold air 
that nearly knocked Kreskin over. Masters then announced,  "I predict the 
Amazing Kreskin will freeze his ass off."
Kreskin's Cry Cry Cry prediction came true, btw. The group had planned on 
calling it quits in a couple months, but their album did so well that they 
continued touring for a full year.
