Embed Eventbrite events/checkout #28

Eventbrite has multiple methods to allow users to register for events directly on a host site. Our site meets the technical requirements, so I suggest we look into it: https://www.eventbrite.com/support/articles/en_US/Troubleshooting/Which-website-integration-is-right-for-me?lg=en_US

I am extremely weary of doing this. We added eventbrite integration a number of times on the old site, and it broke over time, repeatedly. Part of the issue was that we were adding a "blog post" for each even before it happened, so we integrated into the blog posts. Then after the events happened, the post remained and looked crappy.

I think I would have lots of questions that would need good answers before I would consider this. For instance (and mainly): What does it look like if we have no events running at the time?
