I'm somewhat loath do suggest this, but I think it would be a good
way to deal with this...

What about some kind of flash/javascript magic that will rotate
through multiple events on the front page? Not rotate per page view,
but rotate like every 5 seconds.

If the event listings on the front page were small in size, we could
probably fit 5 or so in the space currently used (sorry, I'm on a
plane right now so I'm going from memory on what the home page looks
like).
