I'm glad YOU asked. I thought I'd sound like an idiot for not knowing what a "busker" was...

<br><br>I guess I'm not the only one. So what is it?

To play music or perform entertainment in a public place, usually while soliciting money.<br><br>thats the dictionary defintion. but basically anyone on the side of the street with a blind dog, asking for money.

Thanks for the definition of "busker". Here in the States we call that person a "liberal arts graduate".<br><br>
