Super Bowl weekend is here! It's time to revisit the best of the best halftime performances from classic rock artists and, no, even though Janet Jackson is in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame neither she nor her exposed breast will make an appearance on this list.

Ten performances in all between 1997 and 2014 and only one takes home the coveted DISCovery trophy which, unfortunately, is made of tinfoil. We ave a small budget folks. An honor nonetheless.
