On the heels of last week’s announcement of a new 2CD best-of, dormant Australian rockers Midnight Oil today began offering a free download of “Read About It” recorded live in 2009 at one of two warm-up shows the band played in Canberra prior to taking part in the Sound Relief benefit concert. You can download the track at Midnight Oil’s newly relaunched website in exchange for an e-mail address.
