[djfreesoul]

Since I have 1/2 hour left of my workday on a friday and nobody seems to call me, I might as well take mine , from the memory.

I carry two slimline PC-bags, one with my IBM Lenovo ThinkPad E60 (not the most sexy machine, but sturdy and can withstand a fall from the DJ floor, and a pint of beer over the spillsafe keyboard, which actually happened half a year a go at a gig. The battery shorted out, but the computer survived!).

Installed I have iTunes, Traktor Pro 1 and Acid Pro v6 (for remixing purposes) installed.

The other bag contains:
- Vestax VCI-100 SE Arcade
- Trigger Finger (effects)
- Old, but reliable USB Soundblaster card
- Headset AKG K181DJ
- Überstand
- Phono cables, and some homemade adapter for phono to jack, and splitter phono cables, mono to stereo, and four USB cables.
- Ear Plugs

... and last but not least:
- Two CDs full of fairly new mp3 (for when Traktor crashes).

[MaxOnBass]

-Lenovo G550 laptop
-cooling pad
-laptop charger
-VCI-100
-A2DJ
-AKG K518
-all the cables I need for that, including a few spares
-mixer connection cables and adaptors
-business cards
-sponge sheet for dampening low frequencies
-promo CDs
-chocolate
-Swiss army knife
-flashlight
-ear plugs
-spare USB sound card
-a small teddy bear

That's it for now, my gear is everchanging
