Top Five

Marnie Stern's tour survival items.

By WW MUSIC STAFF

Parliament Lights
We try to buy cartons when we're in the Southern states because they're so cheap there and ideally that will last us for a while.

Priceline.com
You can "name your own price," and often you can get something like a four-star hotel room for as little as $75. That means hot showers; big, comfy beds; and free breakfast!

Fig, my dog
She's a teacup Morkie [Maltese-Yorkie mix] who comes with me everywhere and boosts morale when we need it most.

My computer
I spend at least a third of my day on it, mostly watching TV and playing brain strategy games.

Starbucks
We have to stop about once an hour due to my obscene addiction.
