It's been said that Barracuda in Chelsea was modeled after a E. Village bar. Ther reverse is true for Urge. It's 'trendier', cleaner (sort of), has nice decor, and the ubiquitous muscle go-go boys will make you feel like your 5 blocks west and 14 blocks north. The crowd has gotten older, mid 30's, but in general it's a good looking crowd. The drink prices are average, but they do a 4-10p 2 for one happy hour (every day I think). They have some special eves which are fun, Sunday's has Deperarate Houswives, Weds has Money Wheel. No cover. The bathrooms are a bit rank and one has a trough if you're into that.

VERY friendly. Good mix. Definitely for the 20's/30s set. Easy place to pick up a date for the evening. Tends to be busiest from 11p-2a. Beers are 5 and 6 which is a little pricey given the dinge. Great jukebox. Annoying as hell door guy.
