Default tools needed for brake shoe change??

looks like I need to replace the brake shoes on the back of my 95 Suburban, but it's been many years since I've messed with drums and don't have any drum brake tools. What do I need - just the one screwdriver looking thing to remove/replace the retainers and little crowbar looking tool with the socket end to get the springs on? Do I need a set of spring pliers?? Anything else??

A mechanically inclined buddy and a six pack of brew might get it done for you
