    None that I know of, but the coppers can "move you along" for acting the maggot, creating a disturbance, etc, if your busking is vulgar. Also, use a musical instrument, and sing a few liked, but not so well sung songs. IE: not "merry christmas", but maybe "Fairytales of New York" by The Pogies, etc.

    Who is the tall elegant gentleman attired in a dress suit and bow tie who sings in Oliver Plunkett street?
