ACC Liverpool's brief was to give the people of Merseyside and the North West a build-up to the opening in January 2008.
It was also to increase data capture and attract web-hits to ACCL website.
This will be supported by social utility sites (such as MySpace and Facebook) channeling traffic to the website by forwarding e-networking threads to www.musicscominghome.co.uk.

"As part of an audience development campaign, 'Revolution' has been designed to work on many levels to all target audiences.
