We're not sure exactly what he'll play from his vast discography but the MTV official site states says that it will include "tracks from his number one debut solo album As You Were, some new material and a selection of Oasis classics."

You can say that again. When Oasi played MTV Unplugged, he failed to show up - leaving brother Noel to deputise on vocals. He did eventually turn up - to heckle from the balcony.
What do we know about Liam's new album?
Set to release on 20 September, 'Why me? Why not?' is supposed to much bigger than 'As you were'.

Charlie Lightening, a film director working on an upcoming documentary about Gallagher called 'As It Was' spoke to NME said: "It's mega, if you look at 'Definitely Maybe' and 'What's The Story (Morning Glory)?', one's the more punkier one and one's the bigger one.
"That's progression. People aren't gonna be disappointed with it. I think it's gonna blow people away."
"[The album] is a continuation of 'As You Were' but it's that bit bigger - if you're doing something for the second time, you've got more confidence behind you."
