I don't leave anything... last week I got bothered when I realized I left a pair decently used Promark 5A oaks at a gig!
In my case, they were a couple of $39 stands. Hopefully they will help other drummers in the future who find themselves in the same situation I did that day. I think they're potentially a better gift for many, than to select one recipient who'd probably resent being given a pair of "cheap" stands.
I still think I did a good thing. There are skunks out there who would have bought and used the stands, then tried to return them for their money back.

I usually leave my entire kit behind when I wear my cape,run off the stage and crash into a girl and get punched out by her boyfriend.
Then I have mommy go back and pick up my stuff cause I can..
I actually had one of my friends leave a bass amp at my house. He never asked for it back. Now it is my bass amp. It's very useful to have a bass amp.
