释义

The Mavericks 美国乐队

Sorry,i cant find Chinese introduction of this band.

Here is a brief introduction.

The Mavericks was a Grammy Award-winning alternative country music band founded in 1989 in Miami, Florida, United States.

Between 1991 and 2003 they recorded six studio albums, in addition to charting fourteen singles on the U.S. Billboard country charts. Their highest-peaking single was 1996's "All You Ever Do Is Bring Me Down", a collaboration with accordionist Flaco Jimenez.

After the band split up in 2003, lead singer Raul Malo became a solo artist. Robert Reynolds has released two excellent solo EPs, 'Audrey In A Dream' & 'The Wintersky Works', co-founded a 'sort-of-supergroup' called SWAG - releasing the album Catchall, and performs with fellow member Paul Deakin in various groups. Occasional supporting member, guitarist & songwriter Jaime Hanna, joined Jonathan McEuen in the duo Hanna-McEuen.

达拉斯小牛队的英文名

(感觉大陆的这个翻译是不是妥帖)

小牛——Dallas Mavericks达拉斯小牛队(港译达拉斯离群马队)成立于1980年。1980年三月当地电台WBAP展开了一个名为“Name the Team”的竞赛,一个5人委员会收到超过4600多项建议,最终把候选范围缩小为三个:Mavericks小牛, Wranglers争论者 和Express快递。最后盛出的是Mavericks。Mavericks应该解释为旧时西部没有烧上烙印的小牛(马)或是离队迷途的小牛(马)。达拉斯是美国西部得州城市,取名Mavericks就是纪念当地的西部牛仔生活。类似当地的NFL球队达拉斯牛仔队 。

原来典故是这样的: 美国从前有个农场主,规定要在自己的牲畜上打各自烙印,Mavericks这个人偏偏不打烙印,说只要牲畜上没有烙印,这牲畜就是我的,所以这个词就来形容做事不循规蹈矩的人!
