Love the King
Love the King and I’m happy Opening Ceremony brought him back. Great T-Shirts.
-
My Fix
My mother always brings gifts for my children – and some for me to once in awhile. Here, my wife Isabel and I are holding custom made Converse for my kids and in my left hand my only addiction- SNUS, It’s Swedish tobacco (my fix).
-
It’s Showtime!
Leaving the hotel and ready to hit the streets of NYC. It's showtime!
-
Way Too Many Cars
Always a little confused getting out of the hotels – we have way too many cars and I had no idea which one to choose.
-
Crocs!
My mom has a weird addiction with Crocs. I know … Crocs! I found a picture of a really funny Friday the 13th mockup edition of Crocs that I had to share.
-
Cameras Everywhere
Just arriving in Central Park for the second show. At that moment I'm probably spotting a million cameras – not that it's paparazzi but we're having everything documented and they’re everywhere.
-
Backstage
Arriving to the backstage area to relax and meet with friends before the show.
-
Beautiful Painting
A friend of mine made a painting of me and its really beautiful. He's extremely talented! Now my kids have me on the wall when I'm gone.
-
It Made My Night
Another look at the painting – it really made my night!
-
Happy Vodka Days!
We just launched an organic Swedish Vodka that I'm proudly showing my crew. They all LOVED it – Happy Days!
-
Height Equality
Posing with some friends. They're tall and I'm not the tallest man in the world, so I thought a chair would make it equal!
-
Meet Seb Webber
A moment with my crew backstage. Meet Seb Webber. He's co-manager for the other artists on the label …and is single!
-
The King
Talking backstage, you'll see the set times for the night, and me, with the King and my Camo Nike's.
-
Gathering Power
Backstage closing my eyes gathering power while my tour manager Ben – best dressed in the business – runs through tonight's schedule with me.
-
My Last Breath
I have a little moment before I go on stage – no one next to me, no one talking, just me, the sound, the flashing lights, the crowd noise. I do this on every show. It’s my last breath before I get on the stage.
-
The Confused Assistant
You see a happy me & Ryan Marciano (who along with DJ partner Sunnery James played right before me). Notice my confused assistant, Leonard in the background!
-
Signature Lasers
Start of my show – this is probably six minutes in to it. I have my signature lasers and we’re getting the party going.
-
NYC at Its Best!
I loved this show. It's not the biggest but it's one of the shows that means a lot to me. It's something special – our own little festival – and it's NYC at its best!
-
Partying in Central Park
Me and my closest NYC friends partying in Central Park. What an experience!
-
People Thought I Was Nuts
Showing my appreciation to the crowd. I always like to climb up on the decks. When I started doing that 10 years ago people thought I was nuts!
-
Looking at Pictures
Moment with my wife Isabel, Leonard and Jade (Business Manager) after the show looking at pictures from the previous night.
-
It’s a Little Emotional
Leaving the stage for the last time in Central Park. Thanking everyone involved and it's a little emotional. Sad that it's over.
-
Creative Mode
On my way to the studio. I love NYC around midnight and I needed my little tourist moment and a gasp of "fresh" air before getting in to creative mode.
-
20 Hours a Day
Arriving at the studio. It's time to let loose and be creative, I've spent 20 hours a day in this room for the last five days.
-
Talkboxing!
Talkboxing! Mike Dean & Junior Sanchez in the background.
-
I Eat NOBU
This is one thing I do almost every day – I eat NOBU. It’s the best food in the world. Laughing with the guys because we probably made some funny joke about the amount of food we've ordered!
-
This Is the Moment
This is where the magic happens – everyone is focused! Me in the middle, Mike Dean on the right and Junior on the left. Creativity can’t be ordered or scheduled. THIS is the moment, this is music, this is what we all live for!
