Busking

Not sure if this right forum but has anyone done this before?

The main reason I started with my guitar is because I made a list of things to do before I am 40 a few years ago and busking was on it. Anyway I have set a date and I am going to spend a day or two and a couple of evenings creating some noise pollution in Cork City in a few weeks and I need a bit of advice.

1. My Play list - Do certain songs make more money and what should I play?
2. What to wear - I was going to dress a chicken but is there a better costume to wear that will make maximum money?
3. Best time of day?
4. Best locations?
5. Any general advice or tips from personal experience?

Anything I make (or if I make anything) will go charity so there is no real pressure but I told work and they are going to do a article on the "experience" for the company magazine as its not the sort of activity that the rest of the managers get up to at the weekends.

So has anyone?
