Ray runs the local record exchange, Earphoria Records. He knows all the genres of music. He and Gerard tried to start a band once when they were teenagers, but it didn’t work out—now he kind of misses his best friend, especially given that Gerard stopped talking to everyone after Mikey died. He has a lot to keep him busy though, and he takes pride in his ability to manage the best record exchange in New Jersey—possibly even the whole tri-state area. He's Gerard's best friend.
