Urge Lounge:
Is the urge to mingle with hot men killing you? Then head to this former funeral home. This two-level lounge comes to life as devilishly cute go-go dancers and a happy hour from 4pm–10pm ensure that the only things dying here are your inhibitions—especially on “Ass Wednesday,” when drag queen Gusty Winds hosts a game that awards $100 to whomever shows the best butt. All that ass play too much for you? Then come on Sundays, when the night gets equally anal as hostess Penelope Van De Camp serves baked goods to patrons as they watch her counterpart, Bree, and the other “Desperate Housewives” on the bar’s plasma screens. Either way, the most fun here is always in the rear, since that’s where the couches are located.
