  <title>Do512 Impromptu Happy Hour/ Bleet-Up Pre-Party--Benefiting Groundwork Music</title>
  <description>&lt;p&gt;We have a lot of leftover Dos Equis that needs a home in some bellies...so we decided to have a little Happy Hour. Stop by the Do512 HQ (&lt;a href=&quot;http://maps.google.com/maps?hl=en&amp;amp;safe=off&amp;amp;client=firefox-a&amp;amp;rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&amp;amp;hs=ZR&amp;amp;um=1&amp;amp;ie=UTF-8&amp;amp;q=2208+S.+Lamar&amp;amp;fb=1&amp;amp;gl=us&amp;amp;hq=2208+S.+Lamar&amp;amp;hnear=Austin,+TX&amp;amp;ei=gQ7ySqw4krW2B-3ikLsL&amp;amp;sa=X&amp;amp;oi=local_group&amp;amp;ct=image&amp;amp;resnum=4&amp;amp;ved=0CBwQtgMwAw&quot;&gt;2208 S. Lamar&lt;/a&gt;) from 5:30-8 for cold beers, then join us as we head over to the Mohawk for the &lt;a href=&quot;http://do512.com/event/2009/11/05/austin-meet-your-bloggers&quot;&gt;Austin Bleet-Up.&lt;/a&gt; Nothing fancy, just beers for a good cause. Maybe a little ping pong and tunes from &lt;a href=&quot;http://twitter.com/CovertCuriosity&quot;&gt;@CovertCuriosity&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Please bring a min. $5 suggested donation to &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.groundworkmusic.org/&quot;&gt;Groundwork Music Project&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;text-decoration: underline;&quot;&gt;Groundwork&amp;rsquo;s Mission and Purpose:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The purpose of the Groundwork Music Project is simple: to provide music education to young children who could not otherwise afford it. Preschool years are critical to the development of musical skills, and musical skills are critical to our development as human beings. Providing children with a rich musical environment nourishes a natural process of learning to carry a tune and keep a beat.&lt;/p&gt;

    <description>The &quot;Do512 Compound&quot; is our name for Do512's south Austin home, a warehouse complex that we convert into an outdoor music venue for parties.  It's located at 2200 S. Lamar, about 1.5 blocks south of Oltorf, directly behind STRUT clothing store. When we're not throwing big parties, we actually work here too.  </description>
