Gig and Show Checklist
It's a good idea to prepare a Gig Checklist or Show Checklist to remember everything your band will need for an upcoming show. Your band would not want to forget any equipment, especially if your show is miles away from home. Below is an example of a Gig Checklist that you may find useful for upcoming gigs for your band. This is a mock gig checklist for upcoming gigs for your band. Feel free to copy it to your word processor and use it or something similar for your gigs. Your band checklist may include more items, so we have left some blanks for any other special items you may need to add. We included business cards and press kits so that your band never misses an opportunity to promote for future shows. You never know who may be at your gig (booking agents, club owners), so always have your band promotional tools ready. For more info on how to get gigs and band press kits on this site. Good Luck in preparing your gig checklist for your bands next gig or show
