Getting xml from url not working

public class GetXMLTask extends AsyncTask<String, Void, String> {

// XML node names
static final String NODE_EVEN = "event";
static final String NODE_NAME = "name";
static final String NODE_DATE = "date";
static final String NODE_LOC = "location";

private TextView txtView; 



public GetXMLTask(TextView txtView) {
   this.txtView = txtView; 

}

@Override
protected String doInBackground(String... urls) {
    String xml = null;
    for (String url : urls) {
        xml = getXmlFromUrl(url);

    }
    return xml;
}

@Override
protected void onPostExecute(String xml) {

    XMLDOMParser parser = new XMLDOMParser();
    InputStream stream = new ByteArrayInputStream(xml.getBytes());
    Document doc = parser.getDocument(stream);

    NodeList nodeList = doc.getElementsByTagName(NODE_EVEN);

    ArrayList<Event>events = new ArrayList<Event>();

    Event event = new Event();
    for (int i = 0; i < nodeList.getLength(); i++) {
       // event = new Event();
        Element e = (Element) nodeList.item(i);

        //will use for something later on
        event.setName(parser.getValue(e, NODE_NAME));
        //event.setName(parser.getValue(e, NODE_DATE));
        event.setName(parser.getValue(e, NODE_LOC));            
        events.add(event);
    }
    txtView.setText(doc.toString()); // to test xml!

}

/* uses HttpURLConnection to make Http request from Android to download
 the XML file */

    StringBuffer output = new StringBuffer("");

    InputStream stream = null;
    URL url;
    try {

        URLConnection connection = url.openConnection();

        HttpURLConnection httpConnection = (HttpURLConnection) connection;
        httpConnection.setRequestMethod("GET");
        httpConnection.connect();

        if (httpConnection.getResponseCode() == HttpURLConnection.HTTP_OK) {
            stream = httpConnection.getInputStream();
            BufferedReader buffer = new BufferedReader(
                    new InputStreamReader(stream));
            String s = "";
            while ((s = buffer.readLine()) != null)
                output.append(s);
        }
    } catch (MalformedURLException e) {
        Log.e("Error", "Unable to parse URL", e);
    } catch (IOException e) {
        Log.e("Error", "IO Exception", e);
    }

    return output.toString();


}


}

It doesn't take that long to complete so considering how slow the emulator is something must be going wrong with the getxmlfromurl right? i get output in my textview

org.apache.harmony.xml.dom.DocumentImpl@b3d5c4b0

My url is fine right before calling getXMLFromUrl iv tested that.
