That is so weird: a busking license.  So it's like an annual fee you have to pay to play on the street?  How much is the fee?  Are taxes collected on your busking?  If you don't have a permit and are caught busking do they take your guitar or fine you?

I think if you don't have one you just get a fine, and sent away.

I love it when I see A guy playing on a street corner, or a sidewalk.  I saw some guys in New York City, but not so many here, in the middle of the U.S.  I saw a guy playing the sax once here, which is one of the better busking instruments, in my opinion.

Hey, do you guys think that I could get some money busking by a playground  :P There's a gazebo conviently located next to it.

Also, is there any chance that any of you guys happen to know somewhere that I can look up my local busking laws?
