Local band Bright Men of Learning plays a free in-store set at Cactus Music this Saturday (9.18.10) at 3pm to celebrate the release of their new album, Fired.

Fired will not be available on CD. Read more after the jump… 

The band says the following:

You can either buy one of 250 vinyl copies or download the record in the digital format of your choice for whatever price you want to pay (including FREE, if you like). The records will be available at Cactus / Sound Exchange / Vinal Edge. Anyone who pays $10 or more for a digital copy can get a vinyl record for free (while we have them). Anyone who buys the vinyl record will receive inside a card/code they can redeem for the digital files. All the digital distribution is done through our Bandcamp site.

We’ll make the record available online starting September 15. And you can buy a physical copy the following Saturday. We’ve shared the record already with a few friends and local music writers, and early feedback seems pretty positive. We’re excited to share it with you. Thanks for listening.

The band also plays a show with Orange Is In at Rudyard’s at 10pm.
