On a suddenly cold night in Saratoga Springs, a crowd of twenty-somethings gathered for a night of nostalgia. Matt & Kim, My Chemical Romance and Blink 182 performed an electric show Friday evening at Saratoga Performing Arts Center. With the sun still up, dance-punk duo Matt and Kim hit the stage.
