Brendan Buckley - black belt in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu (September 25, 2023)

 

[ZOOM FROM GLOOM]

Wonder if Morrissey has just now asked Brendan to teach him some moves? Like how to fend off a mosquito maybe.

 

[Ryan]

BOOYAH!

 

[Seymour Glass]

Neat

 

[Gregor Samsa]

It happened on his way to work?

 

[WC1]

Congratulations Brendan.

99.9% of the posters here have any idea what kind of an accomplishment this is and what it means.

Morrissey is too old to take up the art.

 

[Crisstti]

Nice! Congrats to him.

 

[hand in glove]

Oh that’s cool. He’s a sweet guy! And talented!!!!

 

[Phranc & Open]

He can defend Morrissey against critics of his latter-day (yet unreleased) work and the media itself.

 

[The Wild Turkey]

Hey, your Brazilian Jiu Jitsu is very good.
But it's no match for my Turkey Style!

 

[gordyboy9]

well done brendan,takes a while to achieve black belt status.

 

[marred]

Drumming would be quite the catharsis for a practitioner of Ju Jitsu. Beat the drums not the face

 

[JM🇬🇧]

BOOYAH!

 

[Smart Guy]

Wow.. this is the only person in MOZ's touring band that has any actual talent!
BOOYAH!

 

[gashonthenail]

Well done, Brendan.

osssssssss!

[Harsh Truth]

Nice to see that Morrissey's 2014 tour outfit has found a new home!

 

[Juan Dulces]

He tested for it in Los Angeles, that surprises me a little. How several of the martial arts are - you have to travel to the home of the sport's origin (and be judged by masters of it) to test for and receive your black belt. Good for him.

That explains a lot about the guy. Since he's been in the band, he's looked healthy and fit, clean (which Morrissey appreciates too). Congratulations!!!! This is a HUGE achievement! Mostly, it's always safer with someone like that around. He's got a good balance to him.

Mostly, it's always safer with someone like that around.

That’s true. The Mexican kidnappers will think twice next time, with this guy in the car.

That’s true. The Mexican kidnappers will think twice next time, with this guy in the car.

We can only hope!
