If you’re feeling down about that Ravens playoff loss, just know that somebody loves you, baby, and you know who it is. That’s right: Patti LaBelle is paying a visit to Baltimore this weekend and her singing will be sure to cheer you up. If you’re not a LaBelle fan (which would be weird), we have some other events you can check out that should help lift your spirits.
