What do I need to start performing live?

Hey guys!

I was wondering where to start with collecting hardware for live shows (I make house music by the way). I'm pretty new when it comes to making music, but I think I'm doing a fairly good job of it so far. Unfortunately, I don't know the first thing about performing live. That being said, I was wondering if a few of you kind folks wouldn't mind telling me what I would need to get started performing live, in case the opportunity ever arises. I'm talking keyboards and synthesizers, mixers, headphones, you name it.

So what gear would you recommend I get, and where should I get it? Keep in mind I'm a full-time student and don't have too much spending money, so if you recommend something, keep it on the cheap side!

Right now I use Fruity Loops 10 on a rundown Inspiron 530.

Thanks in advance!

Performing electronic music live means many different things for many different people, since ur primarily edm, id say a CDJ-mixer combo would be ur best bet, that way you can learn to DJ and thats a skill within itself
