The principal (and only) members of Jeffster! are Jeff Barnes, providing backup vocals and performing as the band's rhythm section, and Lester Patel on vocals. The duo primarily acts as a cover band, performing in local venues around the Burbank area. It is revealed in the Chuck season 3 DVD and Blu-Ray special feature 'The Jeffster Revolution' that Jeffster formed when at a bar on Karaoke Monday Jeff urged Lester to sing, Lester did this while Jeff kept time. They sang Dolly Parton's Mommie, Ain't That Daddy several times and according to Lester "Jeffster was born".
In "Chuck Versus the Best Friend" Jeff and Lester attempted to audition for Devon and Ellie's wedding, and have since made several performances on the show. Although the audition didn't go well, they still got the chance to perform at the wedding in "Chuck Versus the Ring" when Morgan used them as a stalling tactic before the ceremony. The duo later performed in "Chuck Versus the Beard" as part of Big Mike's revolt when the Ring infiltrated the Buy More disguised as corporate executives from a rival chain seeking to buy the store. The duo invited themselves to Devon and Ellie's going away party in "Chuck Versus the Honeymooners," where they performed "unplugged" after Jeffrey blew out the amp in rehearsal.
Jeffster! briefly broke up into solo acts in "Chuck Versus the Living Dead," however the duo quickly reconciled and Big Mike was taken on as manager. In "Chuck Versus the Ring: Part II," Jeff and Lester convinced their new manager to premiere their music video (which took them two weekends to make) at the Buy More's going out of business sale, but are interrupted. After the store is evacuated, Chuck inadvertently starts up the video during his confrontation with Shaw. At the end of the episode, Big Mike expressed significant disgust with the duo, in particular Lester's vocals.
In addition to episodes of the series, actors Scott Krinsky and Vik Sahay made a special appearance in-character to perform at San Diego Comic-Con International in 2009.

Leaving on a Jet Plane
Jeffster Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'm ready to go
I'm standin' here outside your door
I hate to wake you up to say goodbye
But the dawn is breakin'
It's early morn
The taxi's waitin'
He's blowin' his horn
I could die
So kiss me and smile for me
Tell me that you'll wait for me
Hold me like you'll never let me go
Cause I'm leavin' on a jet plane
Don't know when I'll be back again
Oh babe, I hate to go
There's so many times I've let you down
So many times I've played around
I tell you now, they don't mean a thing
Ev'ry place I go, I'll think of you
Ev'ry song I sing, I'll sing for you
When I come back, I'll bring your wedding ring
So kiss me and smile for me
Tell me that you'll wait for me
Hold me like you'll never let me go
Cause I'm leavin' on a jet plane
Don't know when I'll be back again
Oh babe, I hate to go
Now the time has come to leave you
One more time
Let me kiss you
Then close your eyes
I'll be on my way
Dream about the days to come
When I won't have to leave alone
About the times, I won't have to say
Oh, kiss me and smile for me
Tell me that you'll wait for me
Hold me like you'll never let me go
Cause I'm leavin' on a jet plane
Don't know when I'll be back again
Oh babe, I hate to go
But, I'm leavin' on a jet plane
Don't know when I'll be back again
Oh babe, I hate to go
The song "Leaving On a Jet Plane" by Jeffster is a melancholic and emotional ballad about saying goodbye to a loved one. The singer is packing his bags and leaving on a plane, unsure of when he'll be back, and feeling the weight of the separation. He's standing outside the door of the person he loves, hesitant to wake them and say goodbye. The early morning and the sound of the taxi's horn create a sense of urgency and sadness, leaving him feeling lonely and heartbroken before he even departs.
The chorus is a plea to his lover to hold him and tell him that she'll wait for him, to kiss him and smile for him even though he hates to leave. He promises her that he'll think of her wherever he goes and sings for her on every stage. The last verse is a final goodbye, as he kisses her and dreams of the days when he won't have to leave her again.

All my bags are packed
I have packed all my belongings for my trip
I'm ready to go
I am prepared and eager to leave for my destination
I'm standin' here outside your door
I am currently standing outside your home, ready to depart
I hate to wake you up to say goodbye
I dislike the idea of disturbing your sleep to bid farewell
But the dawn is breakin'
The sun is rising and it is time for me to leave
It's early morn
It is still early in the morning
The taxi's waitin'
The taxi that will take me to the airport is waiting for me
He's blowin' his horn
The taxi driver is blowing his horn to alert me
Already I'm so lonesome, I could die
I already feel very lonely and sad about leaving, to the point of feeling like I could die
So kiss me and smile for me
Please give me a farewell kiss and smile before I go
Tell me that you'll wait for me
Promise me that you will wait for my return
Hold me like you'll never let me go
Hug me tightly and make me feel loved and secure
'Cause I'm leavin' on a jet plane
I am departing on a plane
Don't know when I'll be back again
I am uncertain about when I will return
Oh babe, I hate to go
I am expressing my sadness about leaving
There's so many times I've let you down
I have disappointed you on many occasions in the past
So many times I've played around
I have engaged in unfaithful behavior in the past
I tell you now, they don't mean a thing
I am assuring you that my past wrongdoings are irrelevant now
Ev'ry place I go, I'll think of you
Wherever I go, I will remember you and think of you
Ev'ry song I sing, I'll sing for you
I will dedicate every song I sing to you
When I come back, I'll bring your wedding ring
I promise to bring you a wedding ring when I return
Now the time has come to leave you
The moment to depart has arrived
One more time
One final time before departing
Let me kiss you
Let me give you one last kiss
Then close your eyes
I want you to close your eyes as I leave
I'll be on my way
I will depart now
Dream about the days to come
Think about the future, when I will return
When I won't have to leave alone
Next time I will not have to depart by myself
About the times, I won't have to say
In the future, we will not have to say goodbye like this anymore
But, I'm leavin' on a jet plane
However, I must leave now on a plane
Don't know when I'll be back again
I am still uncertain about my return date
Oh babe, I hate to go
I still feel sad about leaving
