Have you tried using a GIST index on lat & long? These things are
meant for two-dimensional data, whereas btree doesn't handle
two-dimensional data that well. How many rows satisfy either of the
long / lat condition?

According to the analyze, less than 500 rows matched. I'll look into GIST indexes, thanks for the feedback.

TIP 2: Don't 'kill -9' the postmaster

When I try to create a GIST index, I get the following error:

create index eventgeo_lat_idx on eventgeo using GIST (lat);

ERROR: data type double precision has no default operator class for access method "gist" HINT: You must specify an operator class for the index or define a default operator class for the data type.

I'm not sure what a "default operator class" is, exactly..
