busker achievement?

Granted I am only at the druid encampment in act 1, but is there something special you need to do in order to get money from performing? Maybe later when you are in bigger towns you can perform and earn money?
Just asking for tips on this and also as a way to earn some extra gold in game.

{update: I guess people will drop a coin on successful performances. So just play near people and it will slowly add up}

Yeah I've seen a YT video about it, so looks like you have to be a bard (or choose that class on a level up somehow) and then in bigger towns (possibly Baldur's Gate then), you can use a bard instrument and do the bard dance. Just look for crowded places, so yeah guess that's one of the more easy ones to get.

I've been playing Bard on my main campaign and the above advice is essentially correct. Get an instrument and play music in the streets. The more people the better, and the higher the roll the more money you'll earn. The most money I've ever earned for a single roll is 12 gold. I rolled a 34, for reference.

Don't need to be a bard, just have performance. you can get a free performance from helping alfira at the start of the game in the druids grove
