Okay, is it time for me to shelve this one, Friends ? Or do you want another hint ?

Well, I know I am not a Blues fan and more likely than not, not get it correct. I can't speak for anyone else.

I want to say something like "Broke in the Slaughterhouse," but I'm not a blues fan, either.

Half-point to HWW. The answer is "Hard Time Killing Floor," by Skip James. Sorry. I thought it would be a safe pick, owing to the 45,000,000 covers I've heard-- including one by (yawn) St. Clapton.
At any rate, do you want me to try again, or turn it over to the guy in the sun suit ?

All right, then.

That would only be true if the song was sung on Monday. And while today is Monday, that is not the song.

OK here's a clue
The Mechanical aeronautical vehicles that move by use of a reactive engine are going to be in possession of a 24 hour period designated as theirs, during the titled time period.
Any of numerous mostly marine cartilaginous fishes of medium to large size that have a fusiform body, lateral branchial clefts, and a tough usually dull gray skin roughened by minute tubercles and are typically active predators sometimes dangerous to humans will be in possession of their own opportunity, capability, or fact of doing as one pleases, during the titled time period.

The bad news is I'm drawing a total blank here. The good news is I discovered some really cool websites that stockpile songs about the moon.

OK The next lines. If no one gets it by Sunday, I'll go with a new song.
The inhabitants of a Caribbean island that is a self-governing Commonwealth and an unincorporated territory of the United States mutter in discontent "An altercation conforming to established rules"
Yet in the event that the afore-mentioned people commence a street fight usually between gangs
The singers will street fight the afore-mentioned people in a correct fashion

This is turning into an awesomely cool song in my head;
'The flying rocket submarines will have their day, during the new moon/eclipse!'
'The sharks will run rampant during the new moon/eclipse!'

I'll do one more verse.
A certain Ms. Bryant's namesake will come into possession of what she considers fun activities
During the titled time period
She and another will engage in a minute blending together that is not public
During the titled time period
The male participant of this assignation will arrive without the use of any mechanical means of locomotion and in a state of having a temperature above 98.6 degrees and suffering from exhaustion
the singer indicates a lack of concern for this state
His state of exhaustion is irrelevant
in the event that he is also sexually attractive
During the titled time period

Am I missing something? I don't see how your rewording--A period of time in which the nearest luminous celestial body is obscured by the very celestial body upon which the observer is located; said time period occurs in the present rather than the past or the future--is completely represented in the single-word title, "Tonight."

Night is when the Sun (the nearest luminous celestial body) is obscured by the Earth, the celestial body upon which a person observing that it is night is standing. That it occurs in the present makes it Tonight as opposed to yesterday night or tomorrow night.

Next:
Distributing contaminated foodstuffs within the confines of a publicly-accessible region of grass, trees, and/or other flora situated in an urban area (and usually maintained by the local municipal government) with the intent that said foodstuffs should be consumed by avians of the genus Columba and with the further intent that said avians should be harmed, perhaps even fatally, by the consumption of said foodstuffs.
"Gee, Brainy, what do you want to do tonight?"
