Earlier this week, we brought you the news that comedy superstar Will Ferrell made a surprise appearance on the late night talk show Conan as the character Ron Burgundy, the egotistical news anchor with a heart of gold and a brain of vanilla pudding he played in Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy. His appearance was to wow the audience with a jazz flute jam and to make the special announcement that a deal had been worked out with Paramount Pictures for a sequel to the 2004 hit comedy to finally move forward.

Funny or Die, the website Ferrell co-created with friend and frequent collaborator (and co-writer and director of Anchorman) Adam McKay, has posted a video chronicling the moments before and after Ferrell’s Conan appearance. You can check it out here below.

This month has been very special. March Is Metal says Amazon and to celebrate your favorite music, the site has decided to offer hundreds of metal albums at low prices.

One choice pick is that of the MP3 version of Disturbed‘s debut album The Sickness available for $6.99. The Sickness was released in 2000 and still stands out as one of the (say it quietly) nu-metal albums that hasn’t aged horribly. The album spawned the hits “The Game,” “Down With The Sickness,” and “Want.”

If you would prefer to have a physical copy of The Sickness, the CD is available for $9.99. Click HERE to view all of the March Is Metal deals and grab them while you can today.

As part of Amazon’s monthly $5 MP3 album deal for March 2012, David Bowie‘s Hunky Dory is on sale for only $5.

This wonderful 1971 album by music’s greatest chameleon, David Bowie, finds him in an early phase of his career. But, it is still a mélange of different sounds and styles that he would find himself interchanging as easily as shedding musical skin later on in his career. Hunky Dory, which contains one of his most well known songs, “Changes,” also has tunes as diverse as the cabaret style “Fill Your Heart,” the aching “Life on Mars?,” the steely knives pointed at the songs “Andy Warhol” and “Song for Bob Dylan,” the out and out rocking “Queen Bitch,” and the haunting “The Bewlay Brothers.”

Browse the main sale page to see the other 99 albums on sale for only $5 each in MP3 format through the end of March 2012.
