Show events that are happening now AND in the future

I’m trying to output the events that are ‘coming up’ but I also want to include any that are happening ‘today’. I tried this:

echo EM_Events::output( array('scope'=>'today,future' ));

but it showed events from the past as well ??

When I just use

echo EM_Events::output( array('scope'=>'future' ));

the code works and only shows future events, but not today’s. Can anyone help?

Thanks!
