Topic: Gaffer's Tape?

[John P]

There's no way I bring a whole roll with me to shows..  I re-roll some tape on a small aluminum tube,.. about 3/4" ID. Just big enough to get a finger in.  Plenty of tape for a few shows but very light and small in the bag.

This is definitely the way to go

I've been using this stuff for about a year now. I like the 30yd roll because it is less weight, and it holds as well as stuff costing 2x the price. Findtape.com may not be flashy, but the prices are very good across the board, and I've never had any service problems with them.

Thanks for everybody's advice! 

I ordered a couple rolls of this in black and then some 1" florescent yellow to make my stand legs look like bumble bees to keep people from banging into them (have a dull light option that should make them stick out like crazy without distracting anybody enjoying the show).

I get tubes of 15 glow braclets at my dollar store.  I tape one to each leg of my stand.
