Lomotion Live presents a screening of "It Will All Seem Funny"

originally published: 01/26/2024


(BOONTON, NJ) -- Calling all Bruce fans! Lomotion Live has announced a special last minute FREE event. On Saturday, January 27 at 7:00pm, they will present a screening of It Will All Seem Funny by Julian Garcia at The Parsippany Arts Center. There will be a live performance before and a Talk Back after the screening. The film details one of Bruce Springsteen's most notable moments in his concert history.

On July 8, 1978, Bruce Springsteen performed at the Arizona Veterans Memorial Coliseum in Phoenix. Toward the end of his set with the E Street Band, Springsteen broke into a rollicking version of Rosalita, and what followed became part of rock and roll history.

Throughout the more than 9 minute performance, Springsteen was “attacked” onstage by numerous women, eventually being knocked to the stage before gathering himself to complete the song.

Now, more than four decades later, Montville-based journalist Julian Garcia is telling the story of what went down that night. Featuring interviews with two of the women involved, as well as one insider who was there that night, Garcia’s 20-minute film “It Will All Seem Funny” takes the audience behind the scenes and tells the story of one of the most famous stage crashes in music history.

The screening will feature a Q&A with Garcia and a live music performance by local artists. This is a free event but advance registration is required.  The Parsippany Arts Center is located at 1130 Knoll Road in Boonton, New Jersey.
