    Section about Marrilion really doesn't have anything to do with Aylesbury. Perhaps the section could be moved to an area more specific to the band, such as a notable venue or area of Aylesbury?

    Copying Wikipedia information is okay, but please don't copy massive chunks. A short description with a link to Wikipedia is fine. In addition, it is only necessary to put the county it is in if there is possible confusion (e.g. Newport, Whitchurch, Dorchester).
