I'm curious on how you guys go up to people and ask them if you can perform a trick for them?  :-\

It's been covered in similar topics before.

This topic covers it pretty well.

This is more on audience management, a related topic.
http://aethercards.com/discourse/magical-cardistry-bonanza/audience-management/

This is a little about the approach, but more about the reactions.

I'm going to merge this topic with the first one I listed, since it seems like a good place for it.
