I wish people had to wear (on a shirt or something) some of the shit they type on the internet. I bet you there would be a lot of random beatings on the news. I'd like to think their just dumb 13 year old kids but I doubt it.

Uhm....thats not funny at all! Heres 3 reasons why:

1. He lost his mom at age 15, so he had no family left.

2. His mother made a huge impact on him

3. He was Blind!

His moving his legs to direct his band and moving side to side to keep rythm....no junkie twitches here, dude! Remember Ray was blind so he had the make up his own way to direct his band so he moved his body in tact was the music.

Ya ever notice how even the coolest people seem kinda dorky when their next to Ray?
Johnny holds up alright, though.

I got to see Ray play at a park in 2002.
One of the best things that ever happened to me.
