Well, unless someone chimes in with better advice.....(since no one else is)......I would take care of the AA well before getting into the club. I will go to mall earlier in day and run the Newbie mission by saying hi and chit chatting with strangers.....and/or before the club go to the bar or something to "warm up". Build up positive approach energy. There is a post by Rye Lee about not referring to Approach Anxiety as such but rather as Approach Anticipation Excitement instead.
Way back one time I went to the bar first and hit on a two set of HB10's....I was no where near ready to sarge (my frame and my day was going bad)...but just getting rejected actually pumped me up more....I was like, wow, this is all rejection is...shit....I am going to have a blast tonight! And used that "otherwise negative" energy as a positive as I entered the club next.
Looking back now, I believe my "Inner Game" was tight enough for me to flow positively as so. Many other guys let it get them down. Hope that is a good example....otherwise see link here....

Don't be so concerned with the outcome. More with just having fun. I always hear people say they read this and that...but calibration/listening/feeling the situation and person out is a social skill that takes experience. I can read all the books in the world on weightlifting, but I still aint squat until I....well...do some squats.
Sometimes, you just "have" to fail. Even the greatest do...MPUA's who say they can pick up any girl out there is BS to me. They might have a better chance, but there are way too many variables that play in to make anyone foolproof. Even Michael Jordan missed game winning shots. Take your misses and roll off.
Well, I gotta go quick so I am sort of just typing off the top of my head, that's all I have for now....there is even more info on inner game as well....but I hope that helps.[/u]
