Buckner & Garcia’s hit ‘80s song “Pac-Man Fever” was a wholesome, catchy tune, but nothing’s safe from the climate-wrecking tech scam known as NFTs. Now, because 2021 is trying to be as bad as 2020 I guess, Buckner decided to grace the world with a single called “NiFTy Fever.”
The new song is out now and can be freely streamed on YouTube. However, next week on April 22, five NFT versions of the song will be auctioned off via SongVest as the site’s first NFT offering. The auction will be live for seven days and if you win one of the NFTs for sale you’ll also get a custom gold record award with handwritten lyrics and a Zoom “meet and greet” with Buckner himself. So, at least you are actually getting something beyond a worthless, climate-destroying NFT. That’s nice. I guess.
