I was just inventorying and organizing my Gig Bag, and WOW… I have a lot of stuff in that bag. My current gig bag looks like this…
It’s a Gator Cases GX-BAG-2112-12 Utility Bag with Removable Velcro Divider (21" x 12" x 12"), costing about $50. I used to carry a plastic bin, which was fine, but I like the flexible bag a little better. The only drawback to this bag is that is has only one divider, so it’s a little hard to organize. Also, I find it necessary to repack it after every gig. I have drawers in my DJ rack, so I don’t carry everything in my gig bag; all the cables and devices I use for every gig are in the drawers. The gig bag contains cables and devices I might need depending on the circumstances at a particular venue, as well as duplicate cables I might need if I have to replace a particular cable. I suspect practically all DJ’s carry a variety of power cables, audio cables and lighting cables, as well as specialty items with them in some sort of container.
So here’s the question… What items do you carry in your gig bag? Is there something SPECIAL you carry that other DJ’s may not have thought about?
