Ha, this is interesting. I just found this about Stubbs, they want to expand it. The architect who is designing it is the son of a family friend of our's. His dad dated my aunt.

Bigger serving of Stubb's planned
Restaurant to expand music operations with new indoor venue, bigger outdoor stage.

What started 10 years ago as a barbecue joint with an uncovered outdoor stage will be transformed into a live music complex with a new 1,400-capacity indoor nightclub and a reconfigured outdoor amphitheater that plays to the land's natural slope.
Stubb's Bar-B-Q owners plan to spend $5 million on the expansion, which is expected to break ground next fall. Work could be completed as early as summer 2008. The five co-owners of Stubb's, who will finance the project themselves, bought the former Oak Farms dairy on Ninth Street six years ago. Plans call for the Stubb's outdoor stage to be repositioned on that property, facing west. |

A new indoor nightclub is planned for the corner of Red River and Ninth streets. The restaurant will remain at 801 Red River St.
