These are not mockups, only real screenshots Calendar Monthly view. I'll be adding the daily view right next to the monthly view. their will be no weekly views.
Awesome! I like the way you handled the Multi-Event listings. I think that's the best way. The multiple spanning divs thing can get messy with several entries. Make sure you post your PayPal link :)
looking good. Maybe these Design Pattern Calendar UI examples are of interest: http://flickr.com/photos/factoryjoe/sets/152201/
EDIT: more background and samples:

Oh right, I didn't know that. The link is quite an extensive and continually extended scrapbook of typical UI Design Elements so downloading and re-uploading has limited value. I did a quick google - would this help: bypass flickr ban firefox extension? If not, post again and I'll go the manual route.
Awesome worked perfectly Thanks jacob Pictures in the month view was a nice touch. instead of saying Nov 28th concert, just add the picture of the concert promotions, which makes it easily recognizable if their is lot of clutter. this link was worth the look, nice ideas.
I guess this is via Categories set up on the forum then, not user-defined only-appearing-on-calendar categories (I have no idea what to understand here by tags).
I'm thinking of a Vanilla Category called "Events" but only in the Calendar would I want to distinguish different kinds of events. So forum denizens get the full "Events" spread in the usual cats.
I added a further link to my post above a little earlier and now this even more and exhaustive calendar and date-picker round-up arrived in my feeds:

What type of permissions are we looking at Right now i have 2 Role specific Events-> Which roles can view a particular event Role specific Event types-> Which roles can view an entire event type. So you can have an event type specially for mods or admins.
ok a bit of a change here Scenario You added bunch of events in different calendar type and allowed only Admins and Members to view them. Later on you added another Role called "ConcertReps" How will you now allow all the old events to be viewable to this new role. I think i will remove per event viewing. I'll keep Per Calendar viewing. So you can just say this new role ConcertReps can view all events in this calendar.
Avcourse you will have who which roles can add/manage and delete events

Right now i have 2
Role specific Events-> Which roles can view a particular event
Role specific Event types-> Which roles can view an entire event type. So you can have an event type specially for mods or admins.
