cops shutdown street performance

She should go to Namba. I've seen street performers there unbothered.

One time there was a guy in a full furry suit, in the July heat, playing video game tunes on his electric keyboard and synth. With a pretty large speaker too. He nailed the classic Mario theme, but my wife wouldn't let me give him any money. Not knowing the customs at the time she said it would be considered offensive but a few years later I think she wasn't being truthful.
