Naw. But it's inadviceable to put them beside eachother in a set I guess. But for promotional purposes, I would show the people as much variety as possible really. You might wanna show you got plenty of vinyls...
Other than that I agree with dinoXpress;

as a promoter i don't give a shit if you have as much variety as possible, variety is good mind you and if you started your mix off with deep house and was able to work it up to some really energetic trance or hard dance i'd be impressed, but it's not something i look for cause if you can do that, you'd have been playing out for a while already
i'm mainly looking at track flow and how good the transitions are
also, how is the "energy" throughout the set and will it fit with where i would like to place the dj
if the energy isn't where i'd like it to be but the mix itself was a good one, i'd call the dj up and see if he/she were able to go a little harder or a little softer to fill the slot properly
do what sounds good and right, tell me a story, don't just play a bunch of records together, think about how the songs will go together to create a mood
also, for a demo cd, be sure to label it with your name, alias, and contact info (email, phone or both)
so many times i'll get a cd with just an alias and what the cd is named and i'll have no way to get in contact with the dj
