More flexible upcoming events module

Either exttend functionality of upcoming events module or add modules for certain oütions.

in my case i would need an option to set starting record.
While onemoduöe may display first 3 events another module could display following events when start record is set to 4.

events may possibly be grouped by location to be able to display more events in a short form against single evenrs.

e.g.
Title
venue
from date to date
