In all cases where the University is not the sponsoring agency, organizations sponsoring activities involving the presentation of music wherein the entertainment charge is equal to or exceeds $1,000, the sponsoring agency shall be required to pay in advance of the concert the "per concert" fee as determined by the facility's manager after considering the ticket price and projected attendance at the concert and the music to be played.
