Sidewalk vendors, entertainers and musicians -

Someone asked me this today, and I had no idea what the answer is.
You can often see vendors selling trinkets, jewelry, etc. in certain places in the big cities in Japan. Sometimes the vendors are foreigners.
You can also see musicians and entertainers with an open guitar case taking donations.
How does one get "permission" to do this, is there some kind of license, or are these act simply ignored by the police and other authorities?
