Hey, you know what you have that Paris Hilton doesn’t (aside from a healthy adult’s sense of shame)? A free pass to Shine this Friday. Florida residents get into the club gratis until midnight, meaning, yeah, you’ll probably have to line up when the party-vampire crowd is just heading home from the previous evening’s godless, all-night dancing binge. But free is free, right?

This marks the return of the special Friday House Party nights at Shine, the posh dance joint that’s part of the entertainment complex at the Shelborne resort on South Beach. You’ll get your freak on to the house tunes of Australian native Anthony Pappa, popularly known as the “DJ’s DJ.” Since gracing the cover of DJ Magazine in 2000 as a charter member of the celebrated “nu-breed” of house DJ, Pappa has spun records in the biggest clubs in the world. DJ Pryde and Jon Cowan are also slated to perform, and it all begins at 11 p.m. If you insist on being fashionably late to cool things, that’s okay too, but it’ll cost you. Admission is $20 after midnight. You must be 21 or older to get in.
