Mark Kozelek Laughs! And Other Revelations from His Upcoming Tour Documentary

It appears he's ... laughing?
So Mark Kozelek, the San Francisco-based sadman behind Red House Painters and Sun Kil Moon, is releasing a tour documentary. The black-and-white On Tour. A Documentary follows Kozelek on a solo trip around the world, featuring performances in Italy, Switzerland, Copenhagen, and other locales in 2010 and 2011. As you'd expect from a tour journal, it also shows Kozelek -- who is known for his beautiful, downbeat music -- coping with the everyday frustrations and hilarities of living life on the road. And yes, we said hilarities: Don't wanna spoil it for you, but the trailer for the documentary has Kozelek laughing at the end.
On Tour. A Documentary is out on DVD on August 16 on Kozelek's own Caldo Verde Records. It features concert recordings, album tracks, Kozelek performing in his hotel room, and a score written and performed by the man himself. Watch the trailer for the video, and check out the track listing below:

Kozelek is mostly performing in Europe this summer; there are currently no hometown dates on his tour schedule. Which means the tour doc might be as close as some of you local fans will get for a while.
