Whither One Night Only?

(Image from here.)

What are some things that happen for just one night?  It depends on how you define "just one night."  A certain species of mayfly lives just 24 hours, so has only one night on this planet.  Some performers - musicians or comedians or the like - might stage a show that only happens one night - which is why you can find images like the one above.  & let's not forget the infamous "one night stand" - which is supposed to happen just once.  At night.  With very little standing.

But a moon is full for one night only - every twenty-eight days.  & Self Help Radio is on one night only - per week.  We're not going to be too strict about what the phrase "one night only" means in the songs we'll play on the show - we just want to make sure it's one night we're talking about.

& maybe one night I thought about a show in which everything happened over the course of one night.  It may have been a night I was doing Self Help Radio, or the night before, the one night I am filled with the most dread & anxiety, hoping I will be able to put together an interesting show the next day.  Howsoever it happened, it's tonight that the "one night only" show will air.

Midnight to three a.m., 90.7 fm KBOO Portland, kboo.fm.  For one night only Self Help Radio will have the theme "one night only"!
