The “Riverside†Rob Draganski benefit will be held Aug. 28, at Bay Billiards & Sports Bar, 107 Towne Centre Lane, Fox Lake, Ill.
Draganski, who performed in the area, was a promising blues guitarist with a passion for music from a very young age. On Friday, May 11, 2007, at 22, his life was cut short by a drink driver.
Proceeds from the event will go to M.A.D.D. and VH1 Save The Music.
