I don't think that there are must have pedals, this depends on the style that you play and also your personal taste regarding effects and tone. The bands that you've named use powerful head amps like Mesa Boogie, ENGL, Peavey 5150, EVH 5150 and that's what makes them sound that good. There are no pedals that will give you a real amp tone, even the more expensive Axe Ultra and Kemper aren't as real and real amps with tubes.
What pedal effects to get? This depends on you, if you like using delay, get one, there are many good brands that build it. If you like wah wah, get it, the same with whammy (get a digitech whammy), but don't add pedals into your chain if you won't use them and don't use pedals just because you have them in your guitar chain. The decision should be artistic, creative. One pedal that is always welcome (at least for me) is some kind of tube screamer (it can be one of the many copies or pedals based on it). This is a great pedal to shape your amp's tone, or to add some extra nice feel and sustain to your solo channel. -------------------- My lessons

Also, was curious about the difference in an overdrive and a tube overdrive.

+1 to what everybody else says.
My .02 ... any overdrive or distortion or fuzz pedals are going to sound a lot better going into your Fender 300 tube amp. There are some decent sounds to be had putting drive in front of a solid state (or modeling) amp but it's almost always better with a tube amp. -------------------- - Ken Lasaine
