How valuable is "too valuable to gig"

Depends on the gig but generally I use my cheaper stuff. I'm not really worried about theft but I have had a fair amount of gear damaged over time, either through stupidity or accident. The worst was when a guy unplugged the speaker lead from my head at the end of a set without turning the amp off and it died.. That left me with a £250 repair bill.

Was this Swizzerland? Do the Swizz not have personal liability insurance on as wide a scale as the Hofftoberfestians?

Nope in the UK.

But yes you are supposed to have personal liability insurance here.

Something to think about if you ski here and cause an accident.. you might get the bill for any treatment.
