Reaching one hundred signatures feels like a meaningful step forward in honoring the band. Seeing this level of engagement reminds me of how deep the connection to their music runs in our city.

Reaching one thousand signatures confirms that this band remains a vital part of our local cultural fabric. I am reflecting on the many ways their music has shaped our city and appreciate that so many people feel this recognition is long overdue.

Watching the count approach one hundred signatures reminds me how many people hold the music of The Urge close to their hearts. We have built some momentum but reaching this threshold will signal that our request carries real weight with the community. Please help us cross this mark so we can present a unified front to the board.

The Urge at the pageant every Black Friday is one of the only reasons I make my yearly pilgrimage back from FL. Further, please look in to what everyone in the band has done for the community through donations and volunteer efforts

The Urge meant the world to me growing up as I traveled around the world in the Army back in the day. This band was a source of St. Louis Pride for many of us in the military. You guys deserve a star and it is not even a question. I hope you get it!

If the urge is not eligible for a star on the St. Louis walk of fame, then exactly who is? They were part of a nationwide movement in the 90s that changed music forever. Steve and the boys are exactly the type of St. Louisans that make me proud to be from this city....

The Urge are STL music legends and definitely deserve this. And I had the pleasure of meeting Steve Ewing at his hot dog shop in The Hill a few months ago, and he was the nicest, most humble dude you could possibly imagine. Get these guys a star!

I think that the st. Louis band The Urge definitely deserves a star on the st. Louis Walk of Fame when I think Mississippi nights the first thing that comes to my mind is the urge selling out multiple nights especially Thanksgiving and Christmas
