…even if you’re not a drummer.
- 9V batteries
- a power cable and adapter
- a drum key
- pliers
- a roll of toilet paper (don’t ask)
- guitar strings of the proper gauge for every member of your band
- drum sticks
- duct tape
- blank CDW’s (most sound boards can burn the stage sound straight to disk these days)
- ….the current gig’s set list
Might I add, a set of allen keys, needle nose pliers and an A 440 tuning fork are essential components to my gig bag. If one must ask about the toilet paper then clearly one has never played the club scene I am familiar with. Also, toilet paper and a bit of duct tape can be employed to cut down on drum ring in those clubs with tile floors and tin ceilings.
