I guess I'm the Lone Ranger. I didn't find it tacky.
I also have a very diverse group of friends, but I can usually tell what crowd to expect based on who's inviting me.
If I get an invite from someone with a group as diverse as mine, I'll ask "Who's going to be there?" when I get the invite. If there are people there that I don't care to see, I'll tell the person that I don't want to see those people and I'll catch up with him/her later.
No one has ever gotten upset at me for asking.
