Comment (by coreymckrill):

 [attachment:40702-request-args.diff] changes the `get_request_url` method
 to `get_request_args`, which returns an array instead of a string. This
 allows us to separate the Events API endpoint URL from the request args in
 `wp_remote_get()`.  This will by DRYer in the case that the request args
 are ever used in another context, and also allows the args to be filtered
 on the `http_request_args` hook.
