Mission-ary man?

File this under unsubstantiated but awfully appealling rumor. Word on the street -- Broad Street -- is that Soul Bar man Coco Rubio is looking to take over ownership at the Mission, a larger live music venue/bar located just down the street from his current digs. Does this mean the end of the Soul Bar or an expansion of Mr. Rubio's modest downtown empire? It certainly would mean that some of the larger acts Mr. Rubio has struggled booking on the Soul Bar's relatively small stage would have a place to stretch out a little. More on this story as -- and if -- it develops.
