When out gigging you will need to take absolutely everything you require in order to have a successful performance. Moving heavy equipment into a venue will need a trolley or sack truck and when setting up you will need mic stands, cables and even gaffa tape to secure cabling safely.
Always take spare leads for the instruments and equipment, batteries for pedals and radio microphones, mains extension leads and even replacement guitar strings are always required.
A basic toolkit is always handy and a soldering iron too, provided there is someone there who is confident using one.
Protecting all of your equipment is a must as it is so easy to damage the gear in the back of the van which is why fight cases and gigbags are an important consideration.
When it comes to getting out on the road and performing, the last thing you need is to get caught short of essential tools and accessories so check out the massive range of roadie equipment available from Nevada Music.
