Although In principle to agree with you, but I dont think you will find
many examples actually marked up the way you suggest

But if you really wanted to you could do this..

<div class="hentry">
<h1 class="entry-title haudio">
   <span class="audio-title">Second Hand News</span> by 
   <span class="contributor vcard">
   <span class="fn">Fleetwood Mac</span>
  </span> 
   ( <abbr title="19770101" class="published">1977</abbr> )
</h1>
  <div class="entry-content">This song is great</div>
  <div>blog posted by <address class="vcard author"><a class="url fn"
href="http://someurl.com">Author</a></address> on: <abbr
title="20070807T1252+01" class="updated">August 07th, 2007</abbr>
</div> 
</div>

example here 

http://weborganics.co.uk/files/test.html

dates are not confused because parsers such hAtom2Atom [1] and
http://tools.microformatic.com/ ( uses hAtom2Atom.xsl ) [2] will look
for the "updated" elements and use those as dates

messy I know

there is an example of haudio and hatom available at
http://weborganics.co.uk/haudio

[1] http://www.lukearno.com/projects/hatom2atom/
[2] http://tools.microformatic.com/

hope this helps
