We just did a gig bag post last week, here's my response: https://www.reddit.com/r/livesound/comments/7yx2ji/whats_in_your_pelican/dujul7a/?context=2
As to what's important?
qbox
gloves
tablet (if I'm on a digital console)
ibuprofin (even if you don't need it, someone on your crew will)
earplugs if I'm doing a high volume gig. Lately, I've been doing a musical run, which has been low-volume, but that leads me to...
laptop - not something I need for most gigs, but it currently has all my show cues in it, and is thus essential.
head lamp - I find many, many places to stick this other than my head. giggity.

Qbox.
9v batteries for Qbox.
Mini Pelican case to protect Qbox from harm.

Cable tester.
Leatherman.

deodorant/socks, I've had a lot of long days where a fresh pair of socks make a world of difference to make you feel better, Battery pack to charge devices or hook up my usb gooseneck lamp.
