Let me clarify, busking is when you do magic on the streets and ask for tips at the end. If that's the case, you need a license.
If you're just gonna casually perform for people just for the heck of it, it's perfectly fine. However, don't perform anything using weapons, even a knife. My friend once almost got arrested for doing a trick using a knife. So be careful.

MagicShadow is right.
you only need a license if you are asking for tips or money. then it's considered busking when requires you to get a license unless you want to get fined. :]

Also stay away from private property, that includes and not limited too, Malls, Privately owned businesses and private property in general.
Recently, I got a fine for doing some busking downtown ($250, way more than I usually make) - and yet I am not old enough to apply for a license.
All areas are different though, I have done some busking in front of law enforcement officers and they have had no problem with it (somewhere in the southern part of the US)
*Sigh*
I don't wanna steal someone's thread here but I have a question on busking and don't wanna make a new thread of it.
I don't know if NYC requires you to have a busking license or not. How would I find out, and if needed how can I get one.
I've been looking for websites but no luck.
