From Why Go to Porch
The two chronologies list the same eight songs for the night, entry for entry, and neither carries a note. An attendance of 17 500, marked sold out, is the Pearl Jam Concert Chronology's alone of the two, and three objects, one of them titled Ticket, hang with the night on its page.
On Tuesday, July 28, 1992, Pearl Jam played the Riverbend Music Center in Cincinnati, which both chronologies head by that name and tie to Lollapalooza, the Pearl Jam Concert Chronology as the Lollapalooza Festival. Of the two chronologies, only the Pearl Jam Concert Chronology prints an attendance, 17 500, and it marks the night sold out; neither chronology prints an act line. Five Horizons brackets no figure after its heading, and neither chronology prints a note for the night. Both lists run the same eight songs in the same order, from "Why Go" to "Porch."
The show
The Riverbend Music Center
Both chronologies name the venue Riverbend Music Center and the city Cincinnati, OH; the chronology closes its heading with Lollapalooza Festival in parentheses, and Five Horizons closes its own with Lollapalooza, also in parentheses. The chronology's entry is three lines, a heading, an attendance line reading 17 500 (sold out) and a setlist, and Five Horizons' entry is two, a heading and a set line. Neither chronology's entry carries a note, an act line, a soundcheck, a capacity or a show time, and neither mentions a broadcast.
The Performance
Both chronologies run "Why Go," "Deep," "Jeremy," "Even Flow," "Garden," "Alive," "Leash" and "Porch," eight songs on one line with no encore line, spelled and capitalised alike in the two. Neither chronology says anything of the performance beyond its list, and neither names any other act.
The Next Step
Riverport, the night before, is told in Out on a Narrow Beam. Both chronologies put the next show the following night, July 29, at the Blossom Music Center in Cleveland; it is told in Mudslides on the Lawn.
Recording & sound
What the Record Preserves
Three objects hang with the night's entry on the chronology's page: an untitled PDF whose file name reads review, an untitled image named the same, and an image whose markup title is Ticket. Cincinnati comes down to one venue both chronologies name alike, a festival each names its own way, an attendance of 17 500 marked sold out that of the two chronologies only the first prints, eight songs both list alike, no note in either, and three objects under the date.
