Pattynet was originally founded in January 2005 with a discussion forum and a chatroom, as a place for Patty Griffin fans to come together, discuss “all things Patty”, and simply enjoy each other’s company. The full Pattynet site was launched in April 2005, adding additional content including a biography, lyrics, guitar tabs, and “PattyBase” — a comprehensive database of Patty Griffin performances, set lists, and audience recordings.
At the heart of Pattynet was its vibrant member community. The site became not only an information resource, but a gathering and meeting place for Patty Griffin fans from around the world. Very often, PattyNet community members extended their online relationships and met up in person — typically at Patty Griffin shows all across the country. Patty Griffin has some of the best fans in the music world, and in the early 2000s many of those fans found a home on Pattynet.
Despite the social side of Pattynet having moved on, much of the content of this site (last updated around 2011) has been lovingly preserved. Enjoy.
