San Carlo: the patron saint of breakdancers?

So the Church of San Carlo al Corso is kind of strange to begin with – the mock-marble inside is really like third- or forth-rate (really stripey, not at all convincing) and Via del Corso is kind of an odd place for a church (what better place to remind you that greed is still a cardinal sin, I guess). When I walked by the other day, there was something else compounding all this weirdness: break-dancers! Anyway, I thought the contrast was entertaining.
