This was an easy find / fix… just took some research.
The easiest way to do this is with “The Future is Now” plgin-in.
This is how I display future dates from my ‘Gigs’ category, without resorting to plugins or modifying core WP code …
<?php
$my_query = new WP_Query('category_name=gigs&post_status=future&order=ASC');
while ($my_query->have_posts()) : $my_query->the_post();
$do_not_duplicate = $post->ID;
?>
Works in later versions of WP 2.xx.

I don’t think we’ll be entering future events that we don’t want displayed, so what I did is tweak the code in ../wp-includes/post.php:
if ( 'publish' == $post_status ) {
$now = gmdate('Y-m-d H:i:59');
if ( mysql2date('U', $post_date_gmt) > mysql2date('U', $now) )
// changed so that future dates will be displayed
// $post_status = 'future';
$post_status = 'publish';
}

How does the above work so that future posts are displayed, but once they are in the past they don’t?
I’ve tried Keith Millington’s code, but it gives a 404 not found error when non-logged in users try to read the post 🙁
I think it’s not necesary modify the post file, the solution is in query.php file
