Even though I'm a huge indie fan I still love other music ...

I'd have to say some of my favorites would be Billy Joel, Led Zeppelin, Jethro Tull, anything 80's ... the list goes on.

I use to like Soundgarden, but they broke up.. I also like the smashing pumpkins.

Yea both are good!

I was so pissed ... I came close to getting tickets to the latest Smashing Pumpkins tickets when they did a "exclusive" concert at a local club here in dc. Needless to say the site crashed and I couldn't place my order in time. Thats a band I still really want to see (even though I am so-so on their new album)

It doesn't get much more mainstream than The Beatles; I'd at least rank them among my favorites.

I think one of my all time greatest bands are Dire Straits

It's difficult to really 'define' mainstream as well as difficult to 'define' indie.
To list everything that I listen to outside of the indie genre would be quite a task and I have class soon so let's not try that. Some bands as of late I've attached myself too include Snow Patrol(really like em) and Foo Fighters(when i feel like rockin out, aye?). But mostly, in the last month, I've immersed myself in celtic music. And WOW. How have I had a collection of music without celtic for so long? I mean seriously. It's multi-mood music: I can chill to it, play games to it, read to it, cry to it, dance to it, 'you-name-it' to it. Gives me an every day epic sense to everything I do. I can be sitting on the couch and feel awesome, "I am sitting on THIS couch! Oh yeah! This one right HERE. I am so sitting on this couch and I am STOKED!!!" Ya know? Haha....
Also into techno a bit.
And the second most played genre by me outside of indie is electronic. Air, mum, Zero 7, Autechre, Amon Tobin, etc.
