Jetboy is a San Francisco hard rock band formed in 1983. The band transplanted themselves very early into LA's Sunset Strip Scene. Their musical influences ranged from punk rock to heavy metal with a good dose of blues thrown in. Lead vocalist Mickey Finn sometimes sported a mohawk while other times a short-shorn leopard-spotted hairdo. Their 1988 debut album Feel the Shake peaked at 135 on The Billboard 200.

In 1987, bassist Todd Crew died due to a drug overdose in the Hotel room of Guns N Roses guitarist Slash. Coincidentally, Hanoi Rocks had recently parted ways after the untimely death of their drummer Razzle, which allowed Sam Yaffa to fill the bass guitarist position. Yaffa, a member of one of the groups Jetboy had found most influential, was now a member of the band. Jetboy continued on into the 1990s before calling it a day.

However, over a decade later, Jetboy reconvened, toured and recorded a new CD. Unfortunately, following a well-received show supporting Alice Cooper, the band hit problems, which were highlighted in an episode of the Good Clean Fun pod cast when guitarist Fernie Rod fired bassist Michael Butler live on Butler's own show. The band is now "vigorously searching" for a new bass player and percussionist. Meanwhile, Jetboy's lead singer Mickey Finn is fronting a new band called Cold Blue Rebels.

Three songs from Feel the Shake were featured in the 1989 movie The 'Burbs, starring Tom Hanks. They were "Bloodstone", "Locked in a Cage" and "Make Some Noise".
