Omaha Mining Co — Restaurant in Omaha

Circa 1989, I'm an old school attendee. I was an insecure little girl, who didn't know who she was with her sexual orientation back then. I had a couple female roommates who were engaged, Kymm and Sue. They later broke up and I honestly don't have a clue if they got back together. They introduced me to their friends, one in particular is Sharon "Tripp" Brown, she had a young daughter named Sam (Samantha age 4+/- then). These woman showed me the best time at The Run and The Max. I was stoked to see after 28 years these places are still around. I moved back to KC after my several month adventure living in Omaha. We would frequent these places quite regularly. I'm not sure if anything else was even available back then, I've noticed there are a lot more choices on the map these days. I felt more comfortable in these bars than any bar I've ever walked into. The people are so friendly, dancing and have a great chill time. Heterosexuals could really learn from this beautiful behavior. I'd truly like to know how my old friends are doing?! If anyone knows of Tripp or Kymm or Sue...I know these names must be very vague, but I had to give it a shot. I haven't seen or talked to them in 28 years and would truly like to know how they're doing. If someone reads this and knows them, please show them. These are old school dykes, in their fifties, and I'm guessing Tripp is still around, and if that's true, everyone knows her or of her. TIA I hope this works! Call me, Tripp! "I'm not conceited, I'm convinced." - Tripp circa 1989 I stopped by the other day, I had family with me so I didn't go inside. I gathered from the outside that it's still the same great local dive bar...

Last night was the first time I have ever been to the OMC. It was so much fun. The staff are friendly and amazingly helpful. They made me feel like it was not my first visit but that I was one of the regulars there. The owner even made it a point to come and warn me of the stairs because I was on crutches. He even kind of helped us get down to a table. Now about the performers. They were amazing. There were a few that have stood out in my mind. Whisky Red was very good. He knew his songs and was very interactive with the audience. Very fun. Then there was Torry Red. She was beautiful. To see here you would swear she is a real woman. She too is very interactive with the audience. She also knew her music very well. There was another one who I am sorry I can not seem to remember her name. She did the song Havan and was so energetic you got lost in the experience. They were all good but these three really stood out in my mind. Please make sure you check this place out. Go have fun and let them help you feel like your just part of the gang. Thank you OMC I had a great night and will...

Just had the most delightful experience here, on a quiet, summer Sunday night. Fun, sassy and incredibly genuine staff in a strange but lovingly eclectic space. Only me and two other customers. We all gathered around a corner bar and chatted about life etc etc etc. There for an hour and I left feeling like family. Wish I had more time to hang out with this crew. Shout out to the owner and bartender who were utterly wonderful. If I’m ever back in Omaha, I’ll be back. We need more spaces...
