Liz Phair delivered a rousing short set of songs Sunday night at the Q Television Network Party in the Queer Lounge. The lounge's third festival event drew a host of familiar faces including Nick Nolte, Timothy Hutton, Jonathon Tchaikovsky and Trevor Morgan from the Sundance Film "Off the Black." The party also honored the films, "Open Window," "Factotum," "Steel City," " Allegro, "Flannel Pajamas," "The Proposition," and "Special."

    Celebrities were offered access to the VIP lounge, designed by Barclay Butera. The room was packed and buzzing about the celebrities' appearance - all of whom were hiding toward the back, almost squatting on a short, black, semi-circle sectional couch that wrapped around a large mirrored coffee table.

    With temperatures dipping into the single digits, and the doorway to the VIP lounge jammed with onlookers, many of those inside the swank spot ignored the no-smoking signs and ashed directly on the cream carpet.
