Big Red is the head of security for the Brooklyn music venue The Great Mistake, and you'll typically find him back of house by the stage and the performers. He isn't as big or as red as he once was, but the nickname is so inseparable from the man that most of the people in his life don't even know what his real name is. He's the kind of guy everyone would call a character, to put it lightly.

Red is a veteran of the rock scene, and this is the only life he knows. He ruined his ears long ago, so he uses hearing aids now. It definitely seems like he's done a lot of drugs in his time, but hey, who's judging?

He's gruff, but everyone loves him: his co-workers (except probably Qiana) and the club's regulars alike, because he's hard to forget-- but unlike the quick-minded Topaz, he never remembers anyone. Say hi to him at the club several times a week and he won't know you.

Red is full of wild, entertaining stories that don't make a lot of sense, but you get the feeling they're at least based in reality-- or what Red remembers of it, anyway. When Roadie was around, he loved egging him on to get these stories out of him, and Roadie used to joke with Silver that this is his future.

He's the kind of guy who's always on about some new thing that he insists is the wave of the future (these are a few years too late for the canon, but think QR codes or bitcoin), and if anyone is going to fall for a Ponzi scheme, it'd be this guy. It's also easy to get him going on some half-sensical rant, like the hidden motives behind how much the PATH train to Hoboken sucks. Red doesn't really know he's funny, but he loves his job and this is where he really is living his best life.
