I've done it by moving playhead to the starting point of the to-be-moved section of the song, hitting Ctrl+A, then hitting S (make sure that Edit point is set as Playhead), then doing the same for end point, then selecting all those to-be-moved regions (Ctrl pressed while selecting) and dragging them all at once to a better place... If things get screwed, Ctrl+Z is the reverse gear.
