Kermit Ruffins officially reopened the Mother-in-Law Lounge on Monday January 20, 2014. Ruffins chose the Martin Luther King Jr. holiday to reopen, inviting New Orleans musicians such as Glen David Andrews and James Winfield to perform. Ernie K-Doe is still very much a part of the building, through murals and the lounge's name. Ernie died in 2001 and the club eventually closed in 2010.
