Party SNAFU

It's real easy to buy a backup instrument cable, speaker cable, and generic power cable and leave them in an "emergency bag" tucked in the corner of your trunk. Mine also has a set of guitar strings and a drum key and a mic cable because even tho I don't use those things myself, I'd rather save someone else's bacon than deal with panicky bandmates.
Yup, I'm the one with extra cables, power cables, strings, pliers, batteries, etc. Anything that can be fixed on the fly.
