When my shows are out of town, such as most of my weddings are, I will bring my CD's with me and leave them in the truck (chevy blazer). Most (all) of my KJ shows are within a mile of my house so I just leave my cdg's at home, but I do know of some KJ's and DJ's in this area that bring their disks with them as backups in case their laptops fail.
There was one DJ 20 miles from here that last year he was fined 750 dollars a song he played at a gig he didn't have the original disk for. The fine was for 7 songs. Not sure how that evolved but I remember that it started with his illegal downloading (sharing of mp3 files) and his internet server (provider) was contacted. It became known that he was sharing illegal files to begin with. He was arrested by the state police at his home the next day following his gig; for copyright infringement.
