Leonard Cohen, Amsterdam Westerpark, July 12, 2008 More Leonard Cohen photos by cvodb'You are all covered with sunshine.' Leonard Cohen looks out over the crowd in Westerpark.

Free ear plugs - the proper inner ear kind - were given out at the door, but it didn't help the band one bit. The French promotors thought My Bloody Valentine's volume was dangerous and their sound techs adjusted accordingly. Singer/guitarist Kevin ...
