Here's an interesting article that appeared in the LA Times:

I wonder if our wonderful Mr. Hearn spent some time there.:)

Wow thats extremely interesting (and spooky!)

That sounds like a VERY good candidate for his inspiration....even copper miners haha

I have pictures of the old copper mines in Jerome somewhere on the hard drive. Jerome is a cool place.

The thought of taking a trip there has been swirling in the back of my brain since I've heard this song. I should just break down and do it because it's only going to keep bugging me the more I listen to AIGT.

Seems like it is the inspiration but I still think of Jerome, Idaho ... where only parts of the song fit ... yanno, like that it's a town called Jerome ...

I wonder if Kev has ever been to Bisbee, Arizona. Its very close to Jerome, and I could see someone writing a song about it, too. I mean, it rhymes with "kiss me," don't it ?

The Jerome Hotel really looks haunted, too:

I instantly knew he was singing about Jerome, AZ - I love the song!

Sorry Shell, Jerome is north of PHX near Sedona and Bisbee is south about 20 miles form the Mexico border.
