Whether it\u2019s a club, a wedding, or a church social, you probably bring a bag with your equipment and extra stuff in it. You probably haven\u2019t gone through it in a while either. However, keeping your bag stocked with these five accessories is essential\u2014especially when you work a lot of different venues. What you have in your bag can make or break your next gig. In some cases, what you have at this one might also make or break your next gig, too. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

So, we aren\u2019t going to get into things like headphones, controllers, laptops and tablets, or other essential gig equipment here. We assume you are bringing along all the things that make DJing possible. Instead, let\u2019s take a look at the things you probably won\u2019t need, but will be so relieved to find in there if you discover that you do. With that in mind, here are the five essential accessories you should never leave home without them packed in your bag. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

  1. Tape.<\/strong> No, not a cassette tape, and not duct tape either. We are talking Gaffer Tape, or Gaffer or Gaff tape. Unlike duct tape, Gaff tape is made of fabric instead of vinyl or plastic. Plus, Gaff tape is strong, resistant to heat, which can be handy in the DJ business, and doesn\u2019t leave behind residue on the surface where you tape stuff. DJ Roundabout\u2019s Cubess<\/a> describes Gaffer it as one of the most important yet underestimated accessories that he uses to solve all kinds of problems. Most often he uses it to secure cables on the floor to avoid tripping hazards, but it can be useful in many situations.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
