If you hadn't tried the string shortcut, it would have worked:
event_list = [f1, f2, etc]
As it is, event_list is a list of strings, not a list of functions.
Then, when you want to call it, remember that it has to be treated like a
function:
for ev in event_list:
if ev(t):
pass
If you REALLY need the list of functions to come from a string, you can
also do:
event_list = [eval(f) for f in "f1 f2 etc".split()]
