It's not really a tour. They played some kinda festival in Washington called Endfest and they just booked a few extra dates on the West coast to help with the travel costs. They played at the Henry Fonda Theater in Hollywood last night and the place was sold out (probably holds about 1,500 people) and it was the most enthusiastic crowd I've seen at a Bunnymen show in years. Really fucking great.
I bet you didn't even buy me a t-shirt, did ya...?
...Damn. Being broke sucks...I would of paid any amount to see Echo live...my friend went to the Henry Ford Theater show, too, but I haven't had a chance to talk to him yet.

What songs did they play?
They didn't have t-shirts since it wasn't really a tour, per se. The set list was heavy on older material (the hits plus several from Heaven Up Here) and Mac was in fine voice and looked great. Here's some songs they definitely played (not a complete list):
Lips Like Sugar
Rescue
Back of Love
Nothing Lasts Forever
Over The Wall
All That Jazz
All My Colors (Zimbo)
Show Of Strength
Killing Moon
Ocean Rain
Also, one of the encores was Waiting For My Man by the VU (with a little bit of Heroes by Bowie thrown in). Really a great show.
