The band has performed regularly at the Punk Rock Bowling music festival in Las Vegas since 2005. At their 2021 Punk Rock Bowling show on September 26, Fadi El-Assad sustained a serious rupture of the achilles tendon. He flew home the following day for doctor’s visits and subsequent surgeries to correct the injury. The Gamblers were able to play one final show this year with El-Assad at the Punk in the Park music festival in Orange County, California. In lieu of live performances during the rest of the year and into the early part of the following year, the band instead focused on writing new material for upcoming releases during El-Assad’s recovery.
