Seven area bands will perform Saturday night as part of a benefit for Dan Griebenow, a Rapid City native who was critically injured earlier this month when a gunman opened fire in a mission dormitory in Colorado where Griebenow worked.

Seth McConnell of Rapid City, who organized the benefit, said all proceeds from the concert will go toward covering Griebenow's medical costs.

Griebenow, 24, who was wounded in the neck, has been released from the hospital and is recovering in Rapid City.

"Dan's doing really well," McConnell said Friday. "He's been home for a week and a half. He's just been spending time hanging out with friends and family and really relaxing."

The show is the fifth annual Rock Against Violence concert. Griebenow has performed at three of the past four shows with his band, Burns the Retina. Usually, proceeds are donated to local anti-violence organizations, but this year, they'll go to a friend.

Bands and musicians playing will be Sonic Future, The Reddmen, Anamosa, Seth Brian, and Keyboards and Computers, all of Rapid City, and No One of Consequence of Scottsbluff, Neb.

Sioux Falls band Nodes of Ranvier will headline the show.

The concert will be at The Retired and Enlisted Association, 1981 East Centre St., across S.D. Highway 44 from Western Dakota Technical Institute. McConnell said TREA offered the venue for the concert free of charge.

Doors open at 5 p.m., with the show starting at 6 p.m. Cost is $7.

McConnell, a photographer for the Rapid City Journal, said several area businesses donated prizes to be raffled off throughout the show, including two DVD players from Sears.

T-shirts featuring a winged heart design by a local artist bearing the words "be strong" in Griebenow's handwriting, will be available for $12, with proceeds going to Griebenow.
