I have different 'setups' depending on what kind of gig it is going to be, so it's some combination of the following sets (some items overlap)

For singing:
Songs folder

For tunes:
A selection of soprano, alto, tenor and bass recorders, possibly all four
Tune book or tunes folder if not playing from memory

For accompanied songs:
Soprano ukulele
Tuning box
Lyric/chord sheets if not playing from memory

For accompanied songs or tunes:
Bass viola da gamba
Bow
Spare strings
Tuning box
Rosin
Music or memory
Music stand
Appropriate banter for frequent pauses to tune the damned thing.

For electric gigs:
Yamaha WX5 wind controller
Yamaha VL70-m tone generator
Roland XV-2020 synth module
Data and power and sound cables to hook up to the PA
Any music I'm not confident about remembering
A vitally important sheet reminding me which patches to use for each song.


The latter set's getting sold later this year though, I want to concentrate on other things and it's worth a fair bit of money.
